Product Import now working correctly

I imported a bunch of products into a test store. On that first import,
I did not have the image paths correct. So I edited the flat file and
fixed the image paths. But when I go back to the product import and
mark update existing products, select the product code, thumbnail and
image columns and import, it says 601 updated. However, when I check,
none of the corrected image paths got into the products database. I
tried it multiple times. Anybody else see this?

Product Import now working correctly



Yes.

I am having considerable problems with product import when importing inventory data. If I exclude inventory data from the import, then the product information imports
OK (except see below).

Also, I have had no success at any time, importing the product attribute template codes.

All the data is, of course, formatted correctly for Miva import (according to this document):

so that is not the issue.
