AlexStudio Posted February 3, 2007 Author Share Posted February 3, 2007 Dear Mr. Alex, When we enabled "Utilize Express Checkout Button" [after making the changes to checkout_shipping.php], it showed the Express Checkout Button few times while testing. Mostly, after doing the Chekout, it is showing the ec_shipping.php with all the shipping options. After selecting one of the shipping options, it is directly taking us to the "express_checkout.php" without showing the "checkout_payment.php". Kindly do the needful so that "Express Checkout Button" is shown always at the ec_shipping.php when it is enabled. Thanks, Lakshmanan S. If you clicked on the Express Checkout button, it should take you to PayPal. When you return to store, the button will not be shown again until you cancel the payment or pay. The checkout payment will be skipped because express checkout has already been chosen. This is to prevent leaving a unpaid token in your session. You must cancel the payment prior to choose other payment modules.

Think twice before trying to PM me, it might be ignored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is to prevent leaving a unpaid token in your session. You must cancel the payment prior to choose other payment modules. Dear Mr. Alex, Okay. I would check once again. Even after completing the payment process in Sand Box for one order, it was not showing the "Express Checkout button" for the subsequent orders. If a button is provided for cancelling the payment in the store itself that may solve the problem. [This may be due to the Contribution "Customer Never Loses Cart - Even without Sign In" that we have which prolongs the Session]. Another problem is we are getting "PayPal EC IPN Error" emails with "Toatl amount did not match" for most of the payments even though the amounts are the same: ------------------------------------------------------------------ Order Number: 2139 Date Ordered: February 04, 2007 This order has been updated to the following status and requires your attention. New status: Pending The IPN response contained following message: [Completed (PayPal account:Verified; USD 47.41)] Toatl amount did not match Address status: confirmed OrderTotal= USD 47.41 ------------------------------------------------------------------ This may be due to the invisible difference [in the decimals] as INR gets converted to USD in our store.

Guest Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Hello, I have installed the latest update of this module manually adding the modified code sections to our already modified os commerce installation (themed installation) and triple checked to make sure I wasn't missing any code. The problem I'm having is that when someone clicks on a product and logs in etc and gets to the point where they want to check out and clicks the check out button, oscommerce then redirects them to ec_shipping.php but the main section is blank where I would normally except something from paypal or whatnot. I can only see part of the themed os commerce page. The main section is blank. Any ideas as to what can be causing this? I have spent quite a bit of time trying to resolve this. I am not a professional PHP developer but I do understand the concepts of programming as I know other languages. I have checked the currency settings and made sure that it is configured the same as the module What else could be causing this page to be blank?

Guest Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 The $order->content_type is physical and is being redirected from the same ec_shipping.php file with only the oscommerce session id and the various cookies passed. I have been trying to trace what is happening in the ec_shipping.php file but I'm unable to get any further. Please reply ASAP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livefooduk Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Hi Thank you for your great works, it sounds just what I need as my existing official OSC paypal_ipn module gives us grief if a customer changes the shipping method or address after hitting the paypal button because the temporary order stores the incorrect shipping address. And the normal PayPal module gives us grief because some customers do not return to our site so we do not get the order just an email from paypal saying "Notification of Payment Received" Anyhow I have searched all though this thread over and over but can not see where I have gone wrong :blush: I have curl enabled and have the certificate in the correct place PHP Version 4.4.4 CURL support enabled CURL Information libcurl/7.10.3 OpenSSL/0.9.6g ipv6 zlib/1.2.1 I get this error message: An error occured when we tried to establish a connection to PayPal's serversEmail dumpIn function: pre_confirmation_check()Response from PayPal: From this request: (WARNING!!)

Don't use the cert file you downloaded from sandbox to test with live server, nor vise versa. Make sure it is not API signature. I did all this exactly: Log in to your PayPal Premier or Business account. Click the Profile subtab located in the top navigation area. Click the API Access link under the Account Information header. Click the Request API Credentials link in API Set-up page. Select API SSL Client-side certificate I cancelled that one and did it again to be sure and the new certificate (and new password) gives the same problem! The certificate looks like this: -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- MIICXQIBAAKBgQDWbLUYlp3LQdtiYVIWpx7i3jvYEBr06INpVH8THGQqvFjn1QuF ******************************************************** ******************************************************** BwPYE/ia6jDWRprLvIWrVYyg8yDjjklObAWZL5gbgRkR -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIICkzCCAfygAwIBAgIDALvvMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBQUAMIGZMQswCQYDVQQGEwJV ************************************************************ ************************************************************ VeSm7penopxB3cyggmOJw94B75g5wTVmeoYy92BTSB/9PxwFvAdL -----END CERTIFICATE----- I just put the whole txt file on my server, should I only use the certificate part and not the RSA private key part?

Spiceworld Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Hi Was planning to use this for a new shop that i am just adding modifications to, but notice there could be problems with UK accounts. Has this been fixed yet? Also i was just wondering if anyone that is using this on a live shop are getting people moaning about having to create an account first, or are people just not bothering to complete there purchases? Plus i read further back on this thread (Post #19) that it is compatible with the "offical IPN module", can someone tell me which modification that is.

Cheers Richard Please try to test it with your UK account. I need to know if there really is an UK account issue. According to PayPal's Express Checkout API document, it should work with all countries supported. Apparently PayPal wants to promote EC API and force sign up to pay with it. Your customers would think it tedious to create 2 accounts (one in your store and one at PayPal) to shop at your store. Actually to sign up with PayPal via EC API is faster. The 'PayPal Account Optional' feature came with PayPal's website payment standard requires payers to fill up a detailed billing info form. It doesn't skip anything but only the accont itself. The 'official IPN module' mentioned in earlier posts is named 'osCommerce PayPal IPN module'.

PotzUK Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 OK, I'm getting this message at the moment and I can't fix it: We're sorry, but we were unable to process your payment. The cURL library, which is required by the PayPal Website Payments Pro module, is not present. Please contact your webhost and request that it be installed. If I look at the server info in the administration panel, it says: curl CURL support enabled CURL Information libcurl/7.16.0 OpenSSL/0.9.8a zlib/1.2.3 Which to me suggests that it is working?
