Froogle/Google Base

[Bun]

Anyone else having problems logging into Frooglr/Google Base?

Likewise - there's a 403 page on sign-in. I presume you got the Froogle announcement too then.

Froogle login is now Base login - apparently everything is being copied over from Froogle to Base

At the moment I'm just getting a "Forbidden - 403" error trying to log in to base/froogle - I guess everyone got the email at the same time and are all trying to log-in at the same time?!

Also googles email says my froogle products "has already been transferred" to base.. but if they have I can't see them (or my competitors products for that matter).

Oh well, it could have been worse - when I spotted the email I thought the "important change" would mean paying money to be listed!

Wait till the USA wakes up and sees the email - I hope Google are braced for a legal DDOS attack

Won't happen - this one is UK specific.

The US GBase login has the same problem too.

Yep.....still can't get in though

All working now. Certainly seems simple to upload. Have you noted that although you can still use the old Froogle headers they recommend you change them to the Base equivalents?

Yep.....you're right. Uploaded a feed earlier this morning came back with quite a few errors, certainly more the Froogle did Looks like £ signs are not accepted....and few other symbols

"Tom Riddle", "hedwig" - that's too many Harry Potter references in one posting
