Importing CSV product file into 1.5.2

[zekim]

I have recently upgraded my store from 1.4.7.3 to 1.4.9.0 to 1.5.2 in one hit. Everything went reasonable smoothly, until now. I am unable to update my products using the import CSV function in the BO. I have FTP'd the CSV file to the server successfully.

 

However when I import the file through the BO the screen hangs for several minutes and then finally throws a "404 page not found". I have checked the database and the updates have not been imported. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

As a start, have you tried importing just one line (1 product) to ensure that it is not any time out issues

Thanks for the speedy response. Tried a single product upload, and also tried uploading directly through BO rather than FTP, still the same problem.

With just one product, are you tying to upload with images and features? Try one keeping it simple, just upload the basic requirements,

 

Say, Name & Price

 

see what happens. That should tell you if there is a problem with the file format or something else
