Bit more information: Poking around idly (because my data was wiped, and I'm not in the mood to write more listings)
I found in my C:\Documents and Settings\brian\ folder, there are a whole bunch of .txt files. I wrote them off as being the exports I'd downloaded from eBid.. but then I realized my downloads didnt go to that folder..
So, I opened one up, and lo and behold, it happens to be the export file from NL that it writes before uploading.. So it appears what happens once you click on OK to upload, it writes out that file, and then for some reason, it cannot or does not connect to eBid to upload it.
Took one and imported it to NL and it imported just fine.
Added the listings to good to go bucket and watched that folder while I tried a new upload. It wrote the new file and then died. - So it appears it either simply does not want to connect , does not try, or tries and fails - but in any case it seems to never connect to eBid..
Just to see if maybe my firewall/antivirus was blocking it , I shut down my email for safety, killed my firewall and tried again- still no go.. judging by how quickly things happen and watching system monitor, it appears that it never even tries to connect to eBid to upload the file for some reason.
Removed all but one listing from the GTG bucket, and then it does actually upload the one listing.
Tried adding random sets of listings to GTG bucket, none of them would upload. Only way at the moment that I can upload listings from GTG bucket is one by one.
Makes me wonder if there is maybe something with the upload process , that it might be looking in the WRONG PLACE for the upload- if it can only process one listing at a time, it may be that single listings can be uploaded due to being stored to memory, but multiple listings need to be read off from a file?
Its a rather farfetched theory, however - but this didnt seem to occur until the location of ninjalister installation was moved.. ?
AH! I wonder if it isnt the TITLES!?
Working on that theory, I selected 3 listings that had entirely different titles, and added them to GTG bucket - they all uploaded just fine..
This time, I picked 4 OTHER listings - with two of them having *ALMOST* identical titles .. they do not upload.. removed one of the "almost the same" titles, tried again- it uploaded the set of 3.
Tried again with the remaining listings- 5 listings 2 with *similar* titles.. they did not upload.. Removed one of them, the rest upload just fine.
So it appears to have a lot to do with the TITLES of the listing for some reason - maybe it is refusing to upload when titles are identical for the first part - The "almost identical" titles all have the first 5 words exactly the same - until the last few words (Long Mummy and Regular Mummy) which differentiates the items
Example of the titles that seem to make it quit:
Eureka! Eagle Point Eagle Point, Long Mummy Bag
Eureka! Eagle Point Eagle Point, Regular Mummy Bag
If I have both listings in the GTG bucket at the same time, it won't upload. if I remove one of them, the rest all upload. Tested and confirmed this with 3 other pairs of "almost similar" listings .
maybe others with the same issue can try that and see if they can upload multiples as long as listing titles are dissimilar enough ..
