I'm trying to get GCO to work with PerWeight/PerUnit shipping. So far it just shows 0.00 for shipping. I have a custom template but I've followed all the instructions and nothing is working. Any suggestions?
Re: Google Checkout module for Zen Cart 1.3.x (beta)
Log in to GCO, go to settings > shipping setup > and create a custom weight/ price table.
Re: Whoops! Your session has expired - after Google Checkout
I am having this same problem but the order is also not showing in admin. I am still testing this ad on in sandbox, there is no way I can put it in my live shop until this is resolved. worst thing is I am sure before I installed this I read something about these problems, but I can not find them now
Very frustrated after 3 days playing around
Re: Google Checkout module for Zen Cart 1.3.x (beta)
Hi
I have searched this thread but cannot find a fix which I think should be relatively simple (for someone who knows what they are doing :)
I have tested the response handler file in the web browser and am presented with a login and password screen using plain http: non sercure access, however if I use https:// version it just loads the homepage and the login and password box doesn't appear.
I have the following error in google merchant which basically gives a 500 error and the our homepage html:
any ideas why the https version isn't loading as it should?
https://www.domain.com/googlecheckou...nsehandler.php
Send failed with code: 500. Response body was: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="ltr" lang="en"> <head> <title>Personalised Gifts,Wedding Gifts,Christening Gifts | KeepitPersonal.co.uk</title>

Since one of my clients has never been able to integrate google checkout for his shipper Royal Mail in the UK, I finally contacted the gc people for assistance with this mod Here is Google's reply:
The Zen Cart module is no longer supported. Therefore, you should probably
update your cart to another modern open source cart such as magento
(magentocommerce.com).
So I'm going to start recommending that no one install Google Checkout anymore. Since competition is coming up from Amazon for this type of payment processor and since it's never really taken hold in a strong way with those paying the bills, I now consider this to be a non option.
For you that dont' know much about Magento, even though it has free "open source" version that needs special hosting, it is obvious to me that it is a for-profit venture. For google to openly support it sounds to me like they might have a finger in it as well. Sometimes freebies are only a preclude to paid versions. Thanks heavens for real open source like Zen Cart

Well... let's not forget that both are open sourced which means that if you can understand and debunk Magento's version of the Google Checkout code and you have a grasp on ZenCart's coding, you can get both to work.

I think Delia's point is (and the sheer number of crys for help on this support thread seem to bear this out) that it seems this module is not quite ready for primetime. It has lacked any kind of support or leadership in the way of a developer or developers to pick up the ball and run with it and get the issues with this thing fixed so that it runs seemlessly out the box..
There appear to be a TON of unresolved issues with this mod, and it hasn't been updated in over 3 years.. The 3 years with no update wouldn't be an issue if this module didn't appear to be problematic (again this is based on the number of crys for help -- many of which are unresolved/unanswered).
Re: Google Checkout module for Zen Cart 1.3.x (beta)
Actually, my point is that if you are using Google Checkout then you are supporting someone who does not support you. I get kind of ticked off when I send money to someone who then turns around and ignores me and the other many thousands of folks/websites who are using Google Checkout with other "unsupported" open source projects. It's not just Zen Cart they have abandoned after they wrote the original mods. They wrote these mods themselves and then after getting folks into it, walked off without saying a word. That amounts to a scam in my eyes!
If everyone were to quit using it, then Google might find that they made a mistake! It's all about money and Google Checkout does not deserve your money.
GC is not the end all and be all. Amazon has come out with their own version. Paypal Express is still alive and viable. GC has never taken hold like they wanted it to.
For example, one of my clients takes credit cards, paypal and GC. and that's the usage: most use credit cards, then paypal and then GC gets some of the left overs. Not something to base your cart payment plans on, folks!
