Looking for a useful answer?

Read this first and make sure you checked all steps: www.csvimproved.com/frequently-asked-questions/635-troubleshooting-import-errors

Don't just say it doesn't work but describe in detail what is happening and add the following information:
* VirtueMart version
* CSVI version (Latest is not a version number)
* Sample of the file being imported
* Collected debug information

Without this information you won't get a useful answer. If no debug log is attached, you will get a request to post it.

Where to get the debug information?

A tutorial (www.csvimproved.com/frequently-asked-questions/390-how-to-collect-debug-information) has been written to help you collect your debug information. For CSVI 3, there is a video available (www.csvimproved.com/downloads/file/18-collect-debug-information)

Hello,

I am not sure why it is skipping the fields but I do see that you have set Process Images to No, this should be set to Yes if you want to import the images. Can you post the file you are importing?
Kind regards,

RolandD

Hello Rolandd,
I have imported the pictures.
This is what I have done:
1. removed the newest version of CSVI
2. installed the 4.0.1 version
3. tried the media import a few times, and found in the debug log that the second column is always skipped for some reason. This column in my csv file was the 'file_url', the main thing in all.
4. reordered the columns in my csv file, so the second column was 'file_title' (not so important, huh? ;) )
5. processed the media import
:woohoo: I managed!!!

Thanks for all your help.
Hope soon you will fix this skipping problem, I don't know why it is happening.

Hello,

The debug log only shows the first 5 records, they are all fine. You will need to increase this setting from 5 to the amount of records you are importing. Go to Settings -> Log -> Debug log change the 5 to the number you need. After that need to check the debug log as to why the thumbnails cannot be created.
Kind regards,

RolandD

TESTIMONIAL

Excellent product with amazing support
5 stars
2013-03-01
I registered on here just to leave a review.
This software is free or commercial. The free software is amazing, but the commercial version has so much more. If you are importing anything, and I mean anything, into joomla, you NEED this extension. With a little configuration, built in to CSV-I, you can import from any csv (or almost any other UTF-8 text file) into the joomla database. Just select which table you want to import to, and upload your doc, and it's done.
The documentation is excellent and easy to follow. The forums have some great questions answered already. If you have a question that you can't figure the answer for, or find elsewhere, Rolandd has several options for support, even down to 10-day support that's very affordable, so you can ask any questions.
I do, however, suggest, the full commercial version. you move from ver. 4 (free) to ver. 5 (commercial), and you get a full year support included, as well as a few other pieces of software that aren't included in ver. 4 like his Field Mapper for CSV-I and Cherry Picker.
Did I mention the amazing support??!! Rolandd saved me many hours of work, and provided a support response in less than 12 hours. The problem I had I would have NEVER found on my own, yet it was easy to fix. (always hate those problems that stare you in the face but have no idea they are the problem)
I am using this extension to move an entire business' in-house MS Access DB to a fully-functional online MySQL DB with Virtuemart (and custom component/module/view/etc..) I would never be able to do it without CSV-I. Total lifesaver. I will never build another joomla site without including this extension.
Thank you again Rolandd.
