Hi folks.
So I had been using WordPress + WooCommerce for about five minutes, successfully, and I imported the sample-products.csv file with no issue. The products were there. I even managed to test purchase some successfully and got an email indicating it worked.
Then the site just crashed. I forget the error exactly, but when I would attempt to visit any page on the site, it would give the same error and just not respond.
I've been peeling things back to try and fix it. The first attempt I got the site back, but I couldn't import the sample products anymore without getting an error: "File Path provided for import is invalid."
I moved sample-products.csv to a different folder, bingo, it worked again. For another five minutes. Then the site crashed again.
So I wiped that WordPress installation entirely and reinstalled from scratch. It worked and now the site no longer crashes, but that infuriating error "File Path provided for import is invalid," came back and this time, it couldn't be solved. I tried moving the file to a different path, changing its name, setting it to C:/prods.csv, moving the data into a txt file and trying to import that.. it all failed.
So I wiped WordPress again, wiped my database in /phpMyAdmin, uninstalled and reinstalled MAMP entirely. Brought it all back. Same error.
Tried again. Same error.
I'm dying here. Does anyone have any suggestions at all?
