Cannot use Euro currency as default

[Guest]

I have a USD currency and &eu Currency for Euros, I get this error message when i update the currency

 

"Error: The exchange rate for USD (USD) was not updated via xe. Is it a valid currency code?

Warning: The primary exchange rate server (oanda) failed for Euro (&eu) - trying the secondary exchange rate server.

Error: The exchange rate for Euro (&eu) was not updated via xe. Is it a valid currency code? "

 

I cant seem to figure out why

I am using osCommerce Online Merchant v2.2 RC1

&eu? The code for the euro is EUR

 

 

Thats what i thought but when i change to EUR, it automatically changes back to &eu

 

Any ideas?

Thanks for the help

 

It seems to work fine now but as i have changed the euro to default and updated the currencies

I go back to the front page and it still uses the USD as default

You need to make the Euro your default currency in Admin.

 

You also need to do this:

 

look in catalog\includes\languages\english.php and make

// if USE_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE_CURRENCY is true, use the following currency, instead of the applications default currency (used when changing language)

define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'USD');

 

this

 

// if USE_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE_CURRENCY is true, use the following currency, instead of the applications default currency (used when changing language)

define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'EUR');

 

You may also have to set Admin ---> My Store --- > Default Language Currency to true.
