Description

I'm trying to import the attached TSV file (a test file for a much larger import), but cannot get to step 8. I am trying to load it into the default product "Catalog" vocabulary for the products linked to Ubercart on my system (ubercart-6.x-2.0-rc7). My test product catalog has only two terms in it - "Part 000" and "Part XXX" as found in the attached file. I haven't even attempted anything hierarchical yet or with multiple terms...

I have tested with tagging on and off on the "Catalog" vocabulary with the same effect, as well as removing the terms and having an empty vocabulary. I am attempting all imports under the admin account.

The end result is always the same - when I click the "Next" button on Step 7, I get sent back to the New Import Wizard page where the buttons are defined for you. When I click on "List" there are no pending imports, and when I check the content and taxonomy lists nothing has been imported.

I have also had the same problem on RC4, which is why I attempted the dev version to see if it was something that has been fixed for RC5. Help!

Thanks!

I had the same problem... I suspect you're using Internet Explorer? Try using Firefox.

I don't understand why, but that fixed it for me.

MW, I just tried the import with Firefox 3.0.14, and it did complete. I also ran into a similar problem when viewing the "preview" step and hitting "Reload" after changing the number of items to preview. It also only seems to strike when I try an Ubercart import as importing the same data as Page or Story nodes went through without a hitch. Possibly something in the way the form is being constructed?

It's probably a JS inconsistency with IE (I'm running 8.0.6001.18702 on Win XP SP3). I don't know if it's related or not, but when I turned on the JS debugger while going through the import, I ran across some invalid form submits being called from autocomplete.js on line 15 in D6.14. Maybe they were "upsetting" the MS JS interpreter...?

// $Id: autocomplete.js,v 1.23 2008/01/04 11:53:21 goba Exp $
....
    $(input.form).submit(Drupal.autocompleteSubmit);

I don't know if this would be classed as a bug in Node Import or in the Drupal core code, but it does seem like checking to make sure there is a valid form should be in the core code...

Thanks!

Same problem with Opera 10, this must be a JS problem indeed since it's on browser side (there's also a shared problem between IE and Opera for image upload when you ask to add another image in a content edit form, this is also a JS problem, maybe the same, FF goes well on this too).

Subscribing

Opera 10.10

(now using opera from have installed Drupal, as Mozilla SeaMonkey and FF were slow with Drupal admin GUI)
