AppEx Data Loader 8 Issue
There appears to be an issue with AppExchange Data Loader 8; even though you specify the proxy server it cannot connect to Salesforce.com, the error you may get is: “Failed to send request to https://www.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/8.0“. There should be no problems if you connect without passing through a proxy server. In the meantime you can download AppExchange Data Loader 7 from here, until version 8 is fixed.
Update: Data Loader 8 is now fixed; please re-download it by clicking on Setup | Administration Setup | Data Management | AppExchange Data Loader.

I had a problem with the excel connector today as well, although it DID connect. I couldn’t post changes, it kept saying “object required”. Any ideas on that one?
No idea on that to be honest with you. Usually when the excel connector gives you a message like that its something to do with not having a required field in the upload when creating new records. The best place to ask a question on the Excel connector is in the Connector forum. Here: http://forums.crmsuccess.com/s....._Connector
