### Why is my file not being run?

You're likely getting one of these three import errors:

  • Could not run file import: Timed out

  • Could not run file import: Error reading “SSH protocol banner[Errno 104] Connection reset by peer”

  • Error: ('Connection aborted.', OSError("(104, 'ECONNRESET')"))

**Explanation:**

The connection was closed by another part. This is most likely because the server is overloaded, so you should check the health of your SFTP server.

**Fix:**

Import connection was aborted from the source side - make sure your server can handle the number of open connections and requests it is currently facing, check the connectivity and logs of your source URL.

### Why do I get the 'Field 'ids': Unable to import row: No valid customer id, at least one is required and it should not be longer than 256 bytes. A valid customer id must contain at least one alphanumeric symbol and ids "null" and "undefined" are not allowed. : 3x' error?

**Explanation:**

Data is missing in the import file.

**Fix:**

Check the import file data. Verify whether all 255 lines have some value in the Ids column so that each line can be assigned to some customers.

### Why do I get the Field `timestamp`: This field is required error?

**Explanation:**

Data is missing in the import file. The import file contains an empty property timestamp.

**Fix:**

Check the import file data.

### Why do I get the Could not get a sample from selected file: 1x errror?

**Explanation:**

SFTP connection error means that the server on the client's side dropped the connection for some reason.

**Fix:**

Review your server settings.

### Why do I get the Field `code`: voucher code with this code has been already imported to another pool error?

**Explanation:**

Importing voucher codes are not unique or import files include empty rows.

**Fix:**

Check if your vouchers are unique and if you don't have empty rows at the end of the list.

### Why do I get the Invalid encoding in row error?

**Explanation:**

The errors mean there is an encoding error inside the file/data that you are trying to upload.

**Fix:**

Review the data type and format of the data you are using to upload. The answer/fix is inside the data which at the moment could not be processed.

### Why do I get an error while saving schema definition for a fixed schema import: 1x?

**Explanation:**

The issue happens when the system tries to create a catalog and import items at the same time. The only workaround, for now, is to try the same import a second time. Then the catalog should be already created through the first import, so you can pick it in the UI and then it should work.

**Fix:**

Try to re-import the catalog.

### Why do I get the Field `stock_level`: Field is not a valid number error?

**Explanation:**

The data type in the import setup is incorrect.

**Fix:**

Delete this catalog, create a new one with the same name, and repeat the import. Unfortunately, you cannot change the data type of the column once it is set.
