How to install a contribution?

[Guest]

I have been trying for a day now to install the purchase without account contribution and I cannot figure out how to make it work. I ran the .sql, I couldnt figure out how to use compare so I uploaded the new files instead. I didn't notice any change at all.

It it enabled in admin?

I check in admin and their was three lines "purchase without account" all were marked yes. I guess I made three install attempts or ran the .sql three times. So I disabled two of the three and it still wont work.

If you look at the login page, does it have two or three choices? What version of PWA did you install?

It has the two choices, I tried this one "osCommerce v2.2rc2a - Purchase Without Account v2.0a" and this one "osCommerce MS2 - Purchase Without Account"

Edit the login.php file and change this line

  if (defined('PURCHASE_WITHOUT_ACCOUNT') && (PURCHASE_WITHOUT_ACCOUNT == 'ja' || PURCHASE_WITHOUT_ACCOUNT == 'yes')) {

to this

{

Save and upload the file and see of your login page has three options. If it does, then it is a database problem. If it doesn't, then it's a file problem. Either way, restore the above change to avoid problems later on.

I changed that code as you said and it had no effect, so that means its a file problem. I uploaded all the files again and it still had no change.

What is the complete name of the file you downloaded from the contributions section?

I downloaded two files pwa_2_0a.zip and pwa_1_2_5a.zip. neither of them worked for me.

Let me add that this store is new and I havent done much to it. I'm willing to reinstall it, it would only take me a hour to do so second time around.

Yeah, do that and try pwa v9.10 (but edit, do not overwrite).

I used pwa v.910 and it didnt work. I then noticed that my catalog existed in 2 directories httpdocs/catalog and httpsdocs/catalog. I added the updates to both directories and it now works. I dont understand why it exists in two locations but atleast I know now. Thanks Guys.
