Re: No Payment and Wrong Payment Method Error
Thanks Chris.
I have been testing further. I uninstalled all payment modules and patched the site up to make sure it is up to the latest version. I then installed only the Paypal Express module and tried it out. The payment method showed up correctly in the confirmation email this time, but no payment has been taken from Paypal. I then reinstalled the cheque/money order module and the old problem returned!
Re: No Payment and Wrong Payment Method Error
What are the differences between your site and a fresh installation of Zen Cart?
What geographic region are you in?
What country is your PayPal account domiciled in?
Re: No Payment and Wrong Payment Method Error
There are very many difference but they are mostly small changes to various files to move out of table layouts and to insert images and buttons in different places.
The geographic region is the UK and I assume that the Paypal account is domiciled there, but Chris will have to verify.

I have the exact same problem. Just got my first order today, customer tried to pay with Paypal. To his eyes, order was completed properly, we received all the correct emails, but the paypal account was not debited.
In our case, the customer already had an existing Paypal account, and did create an account on our site. The issue is that the payment was never applied via paypal.
Here is what I think happened: somebody forgot to connect an ethernet cable and all my electronic money is draining out on the ground. Ok, maybe not, hehe... but I hope it at least gets a laugh! :frusty:
One other thing: A step I didn't do (before this order) was enable the Instant Payment Notification. This was an oversite on my part, but after reading it, I am not sure that this would cause the error. Perhaps someone else can confirm?
Thanks,
PS: Got my first order! I know the guy, but it still counts (once I get Paypal working anyway, haha)

Re: No Payment and Wrong Payment Method Error
I just set up a fresh v1.3.7.1 install and selected to include the demo products.
Then I turned on PayPal Express Checkout in the admin and set it up with my API credentials.
I left the "CC" and "Check/Money Order" options enabled.
Then I added a product to my cart.
Clicked on Express Checkout.
Went to the PayPal site.
Did not log in to PayPal. Instead, clicked "continue checkout" so I could enter CC information instead.
I filled in CC payment details.
Clicked on Review Payment
Came back to Zen Cart.
On the Checkout-Payment page, I just clicked Continue.
On the Checkout Confirmation page, I just clicked Continue. (I did note that the Payment Method shown under the Billing Address did show "PayPal")
The order completed.
I went to My Account and clicked on the order. It shows as Processing, and shows "PayPal Express Checkout" and the various transaction details.
What step am I missing?
What's different between my test site and yours?

Ok, I did some more rearranging (didn't have cURL enabled, fixed that), then I also disabled a lot of the "Makes it more Express" options in the Paypal Express Module.
I also did something a little different: Rather than click on the paypal express, I went through and tried to complete the order that way, and this time the transaction was refused with this error message:
10413 Transaction refused because of an invalid argument. See additional error messages for details. - The totals of the cart item amounts do not match order amounts.
I am guessing that this was also causing my other problems where the order would appear to complete in paypal express, but then never get submitted.
I will browse through the logs on the 10413 error message... odds are I will find the answer quickly, but if you have a pointer, love to hear it!
Thanks,
