It may be because the WordPress server can’t access the Magento server through HTTP.
You should ask your hosting about this issue.
But then how did it get the rest of the product info?
For the other data, it gets them directly from the database.
So how long should it take? just under 1000 products and it has been working for about an hour – no longer getting errors but surprised by the time.
Incorrectly marked resolved. If the images aren’t imported, everything else seems to work. If I have the image import set properly, the import just hangs and never completes – but the log gives me NO information about why
The process may hang if the images are too heavy because it fills the server’s memory.
If this happens, the solution is to increase the memory_limit value in the php.ini file. 1G should be enough in most cases.
Nope. Set to 1G and still hanging. Too bad. Thought this might be a good solution to my issue but not if it doesn’t import the images as well.
The problem obviously comes from the big images. You should identify the heaviest images and resize them before running the import.
