Weird Prob w/Authize.net Module

[lorelei]

This is weird...

 

The Authorize.net module is working, but the visuals/links aren't in the admin section.

 

The module is still processing orders and everything, it's just that when you go to Modules -> Payment section in the admin it doesn't appear as active. You see the install button, but when you click it it just returns with the same screen with the install button. But if you click on the row where the Authorize.net mod is listed, then you get to the edit screen where you can change trans keys and user names.

 

I guess the simplest way to explain it is that the 'remove/edit' option screen doesn't appear at all. It works for the other payment modules though. I did add an test invoice number to the module (the invoice num sent to authorize.net is the string 'test'), but that was and is working fine. Could someone suggest what lines might be the problem?

Fixed my problem!

 

For those of you how might be having a similar situation, here's the answer...

 

Problem:

Somewhere along the line the install function of the Authorize.net module ran more than once. I'm betting that I forgot to 'remove' the mod before uploading and restarting my alteractions. Anyway, it began to create tons configuration keys in the 'configuration' table and the poor modules.php couldn't figure out which to look at.

 

Solution:

I went into myAdminPhp (use whatever mysql tool you'd like) and deleted all the rows in the configuration file that were related to the Authorize.net module. You can identify these rows by their 'configuration key' which all begin with 'MODULE_PAYMENT_AUTHORIZENET_'

 

That seemed to reset the module and everything is now right with my store.

 

Hope that helps someone out in the future!
