gaaren Posted June 30, 2004 Posted June 30, 2004 I have done: --Config/Download/Enable, re-direct, set expiry, max. --put the download in folder : store/download/ file It shows in consumer version in catalog --Available Options: Color: Download: Windows - English When Pmt is finished, it sends eMail to consumer --from PayPal, Verifying that payment has been subtracted from PayPal --from myStore, with link to the Store asking consumer to logIn, & shows the order. But it never shows how/where to actually DO the download. I tried looking in OSC Knowledge Base/Config/Downloads http://www.oscommerce.info/kb/osCommerce/A...nfiguration/162 but I'm not sure if this stuff has been done behind the scenes, or if I should do/or how to do it. The OSC Knowledge Base says: The catalog/download folder will be read from the "pub" folder.*****I found the Store/Pub folder, but it didnt have anything in it, & I couldnt see how anything could be "read from" there Make sure the /catalog/pub folder is 777 and /catalog/download folder is 755 and these files in catalog/includes/configure.php have the forward slash: ***********I have no idea what this means or how to do it. define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'download/'); define('DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'pub/'); ***********I don't know where to plug this in/how. HELP!!? Gaaren
wondernet Posted July 1, 2004 Posted July 1, 2004 on the order confirmation page (last one in process) there should be a section (bottom of content section) with product title/link and expiry date of download and number of downloads remaining. This is also available when the user looks at the order from their account page.
gaaren Posted July 2, 2004 Author Posted July 2, 2004 I did a more thorough search on OSC Knowledge Base & found a section on "Instant Download After Payment" which indicated there is an Add-On called Download / Free Ship /Pay v5.3 MS 2.2 http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...ons,994/page,11 which seems to indicate that my version of OSC did not have the capability built-in---which might explain why I couldn't get it do what "wondernet" suggested it would. So now I have downloaded this Add-on--any special tricks other than following ReadMe.txt? Gaaren
gaaren Posted July 4, 2004 Author Posted July 4, 2004 Some of the downloads showed up as corrupted. Some were for Unix & some for Windows. My Website is Unix, but my desktop is Windows XP Pro. It is my understanding that I have to open the compressed (Zip or Unix equivalent) & copy that over my existing osc. If I need to have Unix on because that's what is on host site, will the ... I just tried copying the windows version over what I had & screwed up everything. ..Have to start over on store site. Seems like there ought to be an easier way.
Guest Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 there is, just rename your web server configure.php files to something else, copy your code up, then copy your configure.php files back to original location.
