Square Payment Module for Zen Cart [Support Thread]

[RobRiv]

I'm coming back to the issue of "Access token needed" disused before in this thread.
Using Zen Cart 1.5.4 - PHP 5.4.23
Tried reinstalling module, reissuing Application Secret and Personal Access Token, to no avail. "Access token needed" doesn't go away.
I can see that "Token set. You may now continue configuring the module" message appears when trying to authorize the account, but nothing happens after.
One detail is that if I edit the module there is no Location Id (appears blank).
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.

@RobRiv,
Which version of the Square module do you have installed? (It should say in the top of the right-hand-sidebar.)

If the "access token needed" won't go away, even after pressing Refresh in your browser, it suggests that Square isn't able to reach the square_handler.php file on your server in order to set the new access token. This can happen if there is no SSL (https) on your site. It can also happen if you've got URL-rewriting happening that's intercepting the incoming request.

Thank you Dr.Byte for your replay.
Square Payments Module 0.90
I believe that Square is able to set the new access token (I can see that "Token set. You may now continue configuring the module" message is displayed) however I don't know if square_handler.php is changed.
Could it be because the site only is SSL secured at log-in/registration (not the full site)?
Thank you again.

We've been using square for a few months now, and so far so good on the web end accepting card payments. On our square dashboard however all transactions appear as unknown, meaning no customer is created at all, no card is tied to the customer, etc, which presents a set of problems in trying to match the purchases with the clients, adding or swapping products to already placed orders and charging the corresponding credit card, etc. It was my understanding the client information was captured and stored in square's dashboard during the processing of the card, but it's not so.

Could you clarify how the capturing of the payment is done in terms of storing the customer's info directly on square dashboard?

Thank you.

Trying to have this module working.
After following all instructions still "Access token needed" doesn't go away.
Looked at log and have the following message: "PHP Warning: curl_setopt(): CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when an open_basedir is set"
No idea how to fix this. Anyone?
Thks.

Not sure why hundreds of others using Square aren't complaining of the same issue.

Most hosts who set the open_basedir parameter are doing it for security reasons, so I doubt your host will change that for you.
As an alternative you could alter the PHP code by adding // as shown here:

/includes/modules/payment/square.php, lines 521 and 625:

//        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);

At the present time, in v0.9 of the module, there is no creation of customers into your Square account.
I had thought that the transaction-id was available in both places though. Hmmm...

Unless I'm missing something, no, the transaction ID is not in both places, nor I have found a way to search for it in our square dashboard. We can only refund the customer, but cannot adjust orders up if needed.

Would the creation of the customer in full with the CC number, and Apple Pay be included in future versions of the plugin?

Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you for this wonderful plugin. I have installed it and followed the instructions to the letter. I did a test purchase and it worked just fine with no errors given. The log folder was also error log free. What I have may not even be a real problem , but I just noticed something. When I login to my test buy customer account it shows 2 people logged in as a members. This can't be right since I am the only person logged in. Did i miss something during the install ? It shows up correctly in my payment options and works with the test sell.
