For some reason we have additional images showing up that we did not add to a product. Sometime they are blank images, and some times they are an image from another product. It is creating a problem on Google with the product feed. It's creating a image link like http://xxx.com/123.jpghttp://xxx.com/369.jpg.Is there a way to clear all of the additional images from the database other than going through each product one by one? |
Thanks Matt |

Sometime they are blank images, and some times they are an image from another product. The wrong additional image(s) are probably happening when you clone one product to make another product. The blank images were probably created before you upgraded; this was a bug that was fixed in 2013. You will need to remove these from your products.

That's kind a funny. I downloaded and fixed the feed from Google and now the feed engine isn't generating a Google feed but he Bing feed is coming out fine.
What should the SQL query be?

We've identified a bug in the Google Shopping feed that causes it to fail on subsequent generations. The workaround for the time being is to restart the application (e.g. download/re-upload Web.config file). Originally Posted by: toolsup What should the SQL query be? If you want to delete all of the additional images in the database this is the query that you will need to run. As always, make a database backup before running a script like this that will purge so much data. Code:
DELETE
FROM bvc_ProductImage

Thanks Aaron.
The feed tool did start working again.
How would we modify this to just delete the additional images? |
