Hi all,

 

I have a really weird and intermitent problem.

 

My client has a store with around 500 products. I have enabled all stock checking to work accros the board, but for some reason, every now and again when purchases are made the stock level of the item does not appear to reduce, yet when the client informs me to this issue I run a few tests and cannot replecate the issue.

 

Does anyone know where I might find the answer

Born - Scotland

Location - Kent, England

Job - hunting for one

It might be caused by the Paypal IPN module, or a similar payment gateway, where the logic from the checkout_process.php is replicated inside the payment module itself. When a customer does not return to the shop properly the stock checking will not work (a bit similar like the order is not written to the database)

i have also seen recently that some sort of conflict with enabling "downloads" has a similar effect
