BeanStreamers: The next item on my todo list is to add support for 3DSecure (MasterCard SecureCode and Verified by Visa) to Beanstream. Stay tuned!

I'm getting errors when trying to use the Beanstream plugin. I wrote a Beanstream interface myself in the past so I know my Beansream test account is configured in a way that works. My first error was this:

"Transaction Declined. Restricted transaction type"

To fix that, I had to alter my Beanstream account to "allow both purchase and pre-auth transactions"

What is the plugin doing to make this necessary and can I disable it?

Now I'm getting this error:

"Username/Password or hash validation required for this request"

I have no username, password set up in my Beanstream account nor do I have one set up in my zen-cart admin so why is it required?

[swguy]

I think they require it now. Try adding it to your Beanstream account and to your zen admin.

That solved the problem but that would break existing web sites if they suddenly decided it was a requirement.

I have a working implementation of a Beanstream interface (not for Zen Cart) and this is the first I've even heard of this requirement so I'm wondering if the zen-cart beanstream plugin is sending a form field that triggers this requirement. Perhaps the transaction password and user id are being sent even if they are blank and that's triggering the requirement?

The Beanstream folks just contacted me and said this issue was caused by a side effect of another change. It seems like you should set userid & pass for now until the issue is resolved.

Important message from Beanstream Support: Refer to attached image

A (Restrict Internet Transaction Processing Types) needs to be unchecked, and B (use username/password validation against transaction) needs to be checked and filled in to match the settings in ZenCart Admin. This is also the way to enable voids/returns. This effects all transactions, IOP included.

I found some information at this link as well:

https://beanstreamsupport.pbworks.co...-API-Passcodes

It looks like some sort of online FAQ page for Beanstream, maybe something on this page that will explain it, although I don't understand the hash thing.

Hi, wonder what the status of this update is.

We are using Beanstream and have had to enable Verified by Visa and Mastercard SecureCode, and this has completely broken the shopping cart checkout process. We definitely do not want to roll back the security.

Our site is Zencart 1.39h, with Wordpress on Zencart and some FedEx modules. It worked properly until the security measures were put in place.

I've emailed you as well, and look forward to hearing back on this topic.

Thanks again.

I'm not sure when I'll get to it.

Still looking forward to your reply to my email. We're interested in a quote, at very least.

Thanks,
