Yesterday, Comparison Shopping Engine Management reported a problem with Google Base/Merchant Center. I am happy to report that this issue has been resolved. All of our client’s feeds that went out this morning were picked up and processed by Google without error.
Here is link to the help forum where Google acknowledges the problem:

In case you missed it, here is the e-mail that Google was sending out (in error) to its merchants when they submit a file on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.
Dear Google Merchant Center user,
On March 2, 2010 11:32:44 AM PST you uploaded to Google Merchant Center via FTP a file named “FILENAME.TXT”, but you don’t have a data feed registered with this name. Please verify that you provided the correct file name, including correct capitalization.
