Merchant Center Feed with duplicates

    Hello,

    I’m continuing getting product duplicates of almost al products, so i get almost double the product every day generated on my Merchant Center Feed.

    After several searches on topics i tried different things, which included:
    – Reducing batch size that made my feed get stuck and not generating.
    – increase batch size to at least the number of my products (about 2000). This solved my problem with stuck feed generation, that’s because i use an esternal cron-job to run my schedules and it runs only one/two times a day, so with lower batch sizes it doesn’t start back again when finished with first batch.
    – checking for server memory problems, and i haven’t found one.

    So right now i’m using 2000 batch size, and getting my feed generated one times a day but with all doubled products and no memory problems report.

    anyway the product feed log report got me this, maybe you can help:

    Hi Danilo,

    Thanks for using our plugin and reaching out to us. Sorry to hear you are experiencing issues with duplicate products.

    Could you share with me the content of your WooCommerce fatal error logs of the last couple of days? This is where you can find those: https://woocommerce.com/document/finding-php-error-logs/

    Hello,

    Thank you for your quick answer.

    Unfortunately the last fatal error log expired, so i deduct no fatal error occurred during the last days.

    also checking debug.log, the last errors are from 11 Ott 2022 and relative to another plugin.

    The log i sent you are from Product-Feed-Pro-by-AdTribes.io-2022-11-29-c0a8e250e500afdab54b44ec0b1afcf7.log

    Thank you,

    That is not the WooCommerce fatal error log.

    This is where you can find the WooCommerce fatal error logs:

    Hi Danilo,

    Your log is not showing anything useful.

    Can you share with us the following:

    Hi,

    I actually noticed one thing. If the file is automatically generated it will create duplicates (all product are duplicated) but when i manually refresh the feed it will not make duplicates.

    maybe the the feed conflicts with other scheduled activities?

    So that’s the actual feed manually generated (no duplicates): http://www.apromastore.eu/wp-content/uploads/woo-product-feed-pro/csv/Dj0kTKjso2Cf8EF8Zp6Qk7Os7zuAw7nF.csv

    and that’s the feed automatically generated daily (all products are duplicates):
    https://www.apromastore.eu/wp-content/uploads/woo-product-feed-pro/csv/uploadts-1669894810-sec_Dj0kTKjso2Cf8EF8Zp6Qk7Os7zuAw7nF.csv

    That’s the plugin debug.log: https://www.apromastore.eu/wp-content/uploads/woo-product-feed-pro/logs/debug.log

    Thank you,
    Danilo

    I suspect your cron set-up is causing the issue at hand. Starting off events for updating a feed when the previous never stopped/finished. That is why we always advise to use the normal WP cron

    But normal Wp-cron is not an option for us.

    Is there something i can do to differ the feed generation events?

    Thank you,

    Unfortunately not, our plugin is designed to work with WP-cron. When the WP-cron has been disabled and the cron events/hooks are being triggered by an external cron the process becomes unreliable and can execute similar batches with products causing duplicates.

    Assuming the issue at hand has been resolved and our support is no longer required I will close this topic for housekeeping reasons now.

    Do not hesitate to reach out to us again in-case you need our help again.
