Couldn't install module

You did everything right. Have you tried to clear cache? Have you tried to install 1.4 release of this module (http://drupal.org/node/642788/release)? Was it working well?

What release of "Node Import" module are you using?

Have the same with ni_cron 1.5 and node_import 1.x-dev on Drupal 6.17.

(There are ni_cron's lines in dblog, but nothing happens.)

The module doesn't work at all. So setting a priority.

dealancer, we need help and get it worked. ;) Thank you.

Sorry for delay. 86 people are using module and most of them are using latest version. But there can be a problem with prefixes for db tables.

Do you use prefixes for Drupal tables?

Yes, I use prefixes (PostgreSQL).

an_louc, do you use PostgreSQL or MySQL?

Hi,

Are you using node_import-6.x-dev? I've tried it, and that seam to cause the problem.
In node import, they changed the name of the form for the import task list, and that's why you don't see the cron settings.
I advice you to use node_import 1.0 rc4.

We will release a patch for this, but have to check it more deeply, if anything else has changed in node_import.

I've attached a quick patch, if you wanna play with node import dev version. Not recommended!

Thank you for the patch!

I use node_import-6.x-dev. After patching the option "Forced import in cron" appeared but the state of this option can't be saved by pressing Save-button.

Confirm, petu. Options do not save.

ok, i'm a bit busy, but i will try to fix it soon.

Thank you for your module. Will you repair 'Forced import in cron'
option, please? :]

Szy.

This bug was fixed in new dev release (http://drupal.org/node/857604).

The were several problems and reason of that was because of changes in code in dev release of Node Import module.

Seems there was job done, but...

warning: pg_query(): Query failed: ERROR: syntax error at or near "SET" LINE 1: INSERT INTO dp_ni_cron SET taskid=18, cronruntype=2, deleteo... ^ in /var/www/dp/includes/database.pgsql.inc on line 139.
user warning: query: INSERT INTO dp_ni_cron SET taskid=18, cronruntype=2, deleteold=0 ON duplicate KEY UPDATE cronruntype=2, deleteold=0 in /home/pask/web/drupal/all/modules/ni_cron/ni_cron.module on line 284.

I use PostgreSQL 8.4.4.

Changed the code to be all DB convenient:

// UPDATE a task...
db_query("UPDATE {ni_cron} SET cronruntype=%d, deleteold=%d", $cronruntype, $deleteold);
// ...or INSERT if don't exists
if (db_affected_rows() == 0) db_query("INSERT INTO {ni_cron} (taskid, cronruntype, deleteold) VALUES (%d, %d, %d)", $child, $cronruntype, $deleteold);

It works for me now. Will be seeking for import results. ;-)

I can't make it working. This is what I do:

1. quite normal import job, all is imported correctly, file.csv gets
uploaded on the server,

2. set 'only new data' in 'Forced import in cron' option.

3. cron job to import file.csv from Yahoo Pipes every hour, imported
on the server correctly, also chmodded 777.

All what happens is log activity:

"ni_cron 21 lp. 2010 - 10:00 Taskid: 14, Appended data run type, prepared for new import
ni_cron 21 lp. 2010 - 10:00 NI CRON START"

Nothing gets imported... :/

Strange, it was working on my machine.

szy, do you use MySQL or PostreSQL?

Do you use dev version of node_import and dev version of ni_cron published on 19 July?

Fixed in the last nightly dev release (2010-Sep-29).
