Help! In the past the 1st 4 and last 4 digits of credit card information was sent with the order in the admin section. The middle 8 digits were sent as an email. I have configered my site to now require cookies. I no longer recieve the emails and am only getting 8 of the 16 digits. I have several orders I can't process because of this. Should I revert back to no cookies, or am I missing something........THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I went back into the credit card module and found that the "split credit card" email address has been changed to a different address that I do not reconize.......any sugestions would help as now I am afraid of who is getting this information. I use a hosting service to run osCommerce

 

THANKS

Have you looked to see if the email address matches any customers you've had - possibly a corrupt database table wrote it there. Not fluent in mySQL, though I'm guessing it could happen.

I did go back and look and found no matching. Funny thing is it was someones name with a yahoo address in the email box

 

Thanks!

The only e-mail 'box' as such is in your osCommerce admin panel. In the cc.php file the email address is defined by use of STORE_OWNER.

 

1. You have got your 'admin' folder protected with User Name and Password haven't you?

 

2. If you have then you need to change the User Name and Password (and not give it out to anyone).

 

3. Whether you have or have not protected your admin panel you need to FTP to your website and rename the admin folder to something unique. Then edit the two references in admin/includes/configure.php from /admin/ to /newname/

 

4. After you have done this then protect/reprotect the newly renamed admin folder (any previous protection will be gone as the old folder name no longer exists).

Hi what I feel is some one cracked into your email ID there he might have found your FTP details and might have modified code to send a copy of email along with CC detail to his email ID.You need to seriously check the matter as misuse of cc can create an issue of negligence against your site.

Hi Vger,

 

I have done what you suggested above. After changing the name and editing the 2 references I can follow the new link to the admin panel, but none the links (ie. pending, processing) work anymore....help! I wish I was a little bit more smarter in this

Posted

These are the links that have to be changed:

 

define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/newname/');
define('DIR_FS_ADMIN', 'path_to_root_of_web/newname/');

 

Your 'path_to_root_of_web' is in the DIR_FS_CATALOG entry.

 

The code above is for an install into the root of your domain. If you have installed into a folder then you need to add the folder to the pathways e.g.

 

/catalog/newname/

 

Provided those links have been edited correctly there is no reason why your internal links in 'admin' should not work fine. Unless of course the person who hacked your e-mail address did some more damage while there!

Sorry to be a bother but here goes...

 

I am in http://recordhaven.com/osCommerce/catalog/...s/configure.php

 

I have changed line # 19 and 20

 

19 now looks like this: define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/osCommerce/catalog/newname/'); //absolute path required

 

20 now looks like this: define 'DIR_FS_ADMIN', '/home/recordha/public_htmo/osCommerce/catalog/newname/')' //absolute pate required

 

I can link to the "new admin" page but still unable to link to orders

 

THANKS!

is that just a typo on this screen, or in your 'admin' folder?

sorry...typo on the screen...should be html

 

I checked line 18 and this is what it reads:

 

define ('DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT', '/home/recordha/public_html/osCommerce/catalog/'; //where the pages are located on the server

 

THANKS FOR THE HELP!

Sorry, did not think to check caps!!!!! everything works fine....you mentioned securing the folder???how

 

I am now changing the log-in and password

 

Thanks

The easiest way to secure the renamed admin folder is via your Web Hosting Control Panel. There should be a Password or Directory Protection link which you can use. This writes the .htaccess files for you.

 

Choose a nice long password! Mix up letters and numbers (7 letters/numbers at least, 8 or 9 is better).

Thanks for all your help! I am trying to change my password information in the admin area....I am unable to find. I do see it via FTP in the files I just changed. Is there where I change it?

 

I have found the password protect in my host server files

 

Thanks

I guess changing it on my host server also changed my log-in......good to go!

 

THanks for all the help!
