Payment Module Broken!

[deftonez4me]

Hi all.. I'm working on an OS/Commerce site that has an inoperable payment module. The first thing that i did was go into the admin section, under Administrator->Modules->Payment, to see what module was installed and none show up, but when i pressed the install button to install a new payment module nothing happened.

 

Any Ideas? :'(

[deftonez4me]

I noticed that the alignment with the Install button is all screwy too, which might be related to the problem. Here's what i'm seeing:

This problem is for all modules, i can't install any type of module...payment, shipping, or order_total modules. Someone PLease help!

Did you do a "view source" yet? There might be an error message not visible in the page but visible in the HTML source of the page. Also, where the HTML ends is often a good indication where the code hit an error and quit.

 

Try to find a PHP error log for your site too if the hosting provider turned error echo'ing to the browser off (for good reasons).

I used firebug to check the source, and there seems to be no errors in the code. Is there maybe a way to reinstall that part of the installation or something? Thanks.

What version of osc are you running?

 

See: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=283185

 

If it is 'osCommerce 2.2-MS2', thae patch from last year (2006) introduced a bug. See the thread above.

[deftonez4me]

I am running OS/Commerce Version 2.2-MS2, indeed. After a thorough comparison with a file compare and merge utility, i have confirmed that indeed both update patches are installed. I am now noticing that the problem is larger in scope than i thought:

On the Admin->Modules page, not only am i not able to install any modules, but i now noticed that the header title is wrong and says "Newsletter Manager".

 

 

So i got the i got the idea to go to the real "Newsletter Manager" under Admin->Tools->Newsletter Manager and its all screwed up too!!

 

 

I've confirmed that its not an issue with the a patch bug, so are there any other suggestions out there?

 

Thanks in Advance.

Confusing...

What happens when you click on Payment in the left column?

[deftonez4me]

The only thing that changes when i click on the Payment, Shipping, or Order Total links in the left column, is the where it outputs "Module Directory: /includes/modules/payment/". It will change to say either ""Module Directory: /includes/modules/shipping/", or "Module Directory: /includes/modules/shipping_total/" , depending on which corresponding link you click on in the left column.

Why don't you start with editing modules.php, from the brace on line 39 and add some default settings. So it should now read (the changed part starts at else { // in case set is not a GET variable):

	  case 'payment':
  default:
	$module_type = 'payment';
	$module_directory = DIR_FS_CATALOG_MODULES . 'payment/';
	$module_key = 'MODULE_PAYMENT_INSTALLED';
	define('HEADING_TITLE', HEADING_TITLE_MODULES_PAYMENT);
	break;
}
 }  else { // in case set is not a GET variable
	$module_type = 'payment';
	$module_directory = DIR_FS_CATALOG_MODULES . 'payment/';
	$module_key = 'MODULE_PAYMENT_INSTALLED';
	define('HEADING_TITLE', HEADING_TITLE_MODULES_PAYMENT);
 }

[deftonez4me]

Still nothing!!! I echoed the $set variable, to see if its getting the proper values, each time i click on a link in the left column, and it is. The case statement is working properly so adding the else statement is ineffective. Any other ideas Jan?

What is the value of $PHP_SELF ?

So you have fixed the The Magic Quotes compatibility layer?

I'm not sure what you mean. I checked the thread that you posted earlier:

 

In that thread you said: "The versions before MS2 are not compatible with MS2, which is the main version is use. Between MS2 and RC1, there were two patch updates. There isn't a version number for those patches (in the files) so you have to compare file content to see if they are installed. First, download the patches from here. Extract the contents and compare a few of the files with those in your shop. If your shop has them installed, then you probably have the latest MS2 version."

 

I verified that i was running version MS2, so i downloaded both those patches, and compared the files in the patches, to the files on my server, to confirm that both patched were installed, and they already were. Is that what you were talking about when you mentioned the Magic Quotes Compatibility Layer fix?

catalog/includes/functions/compatibility.php:

 

// Ie, products attributes

function do_magic_quotes_gpc(&$ar) {

if (!is_array($ar)) return false;

 

while (list($key, $value) = each($ar)) {

if (is_array($ar[$key])) {

do_magic_quotes_gpc($ar[$key]);

} else {

$ar[$key] = addslashes($value);

}

}

reset($ar); // Bug in Patch osc-060817 corrected

}

reset($ar); // Bug in Patch osc-060817 corrected

}

[deftonez4me]

Yes, as a matter of fact, all of that code was already in both those files when i compared them, with the exception of the line: "reset($ar);". However i did add that line of code to both of those files when i checked them, and it still does not work...

/admin/modules.php

Is the directory catalog/includes/modules/payment (or any other subdirectory on that level) readable for the server?

 

On line 117 it says:

  if ($dir = @dir($module_directory)) {

Why don't your remove the @ before dir and see if there is an error:

  if ($dir = dir($module_directory)) {

I am having the exact same issue. None of the modules are showing up - just an install button which does nothing. Were you able to solve the problem?? Help would be appreciated.

And have you tried the suggestion in the post before yours? You can try things yourself you know...

That's what I thought, but let it go.

[mdean]

I get an error message when I try that suggestion. Warning: dir(DIR_FS_CATALOG_MODULESpayment/) [function.dir]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory.

I get an error message when I try that suggestion. Warning: dir(DIR_FS_CATALOG_MODULESpayment/) [function.dir]: failed to open dir: No such file or directory.

Then it looks like the error is due to a problem with your admin/includes/configure.php. There the define for DIR_FS_CATALOG_MODULES can be found:

  define('DIR_FS_CATALOG_MODULES', DIR_FS_CATALOG . 'includes/modules/');

As you can see that define is not recognized.

[mdean]

This is what my config file says (part of it anyway). I have only a limited knowledge of php. Is there a line there that I can change or modify to make it work? I don't have the line of code that you quoted above. Is that the problem. I pasted the line in, but that didn't work either.
