The Causes of Infinite Upload Spans and Queue Failures
When a catalog import hangs, it blocks your store backend and delays your updates. This is often triggered by unoptimized HTML tags in product descriptions, extremely large images, or infinite loops in variant options.
Common Scenarios:
- Product uploads hanging at 90% for hours because of massive media files that time out Shopify's server.
- Spreadsheets containing hidden script tags or third-party CSS files that crash the catalog parser.
- Infinite loops in variant combinations that lock up Shopify's database during background updates.
