All Paypal/Payflow Modules are missing under ADMIN. - NEWBIE

[jonoo62]

v156a
PHP7.2

I realise seeing "NOT CONFIGURED YET" under Paypal Express Check out indicates missing credentials, HOWEVER I have tried again and again with different permetations and it just will not work.

For Payflow, paypal provide me with:
User Partner Vendor Password

The module in Zencart Admin requires:
API Signature -- Username xxxx6H3HXA
API Signature -- Password ****************
API Signature -- Signature Code ( 56-character code)
PayPal Merchant ID eg: FDEFDEFDEFDE11

How do the 2 sets of requirements relate?

The most logical I can see is:
User = "API Signature -- Username"
Partner = ??? (only thing left is "API Signature -- Signature Code ( 56-character code)") but that does not make sense. Under Payflow credentials for partner, they provide "PayPalUK"
Vendor = "PayPal Merchant ID eg: FDEFDEFDEFDE11"
Password = "API Signature -- Password ****************"


......or is there something up with the module that is not displaying the correct field names?



Is anyone able to provide a best practice walkthrough for this, bearing in mind this is for a UK based site?

Many thanks.

Kind regards

Thank you Design 75 but I already have all the required data (I think) but I need clarification as to what goes where. I have Paypal API credentials and I have Payflow credentials, do I only use Payflow credentials OR only Paypal API & if I use the Payflow credentials how do they relate to the fields provided? Payflow give you a different naming convention ie: "User" ; "Partner"; "Vendor"; "Password"
(as opposed to: "API Signature -- Username"; "API Signature -- Password"; "API Signature -- Signature Code"; "PayPal Merchant ID")

Or have I completely misunderstood what is required?
(Sorry If I am not explaining this very well).

I decided to do a complete re-install of Zone Cart but that made no difference, somebody must have the answer.

..... further investigation showed an article:
https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread....e-by-Sept-2009

and in this article it said to add the Payflow Module (http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=321) as well as making some edits in the payflow.php file.

I did as was suggested and now All Paypal/Payflow Modules/Payment are missing under ADMIN, Modules, Payment.

Not sure if I am going backward or forwards at the moment :)

Sounds like now suffering from a partial blank page. Likely to have a myDebug-adm-xxx log in your logs folder as described in this FAQ: http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?124-blank-page

.....the plot thickens.......
I switched my server PHP version back to v5.6 and "hey presto" I can see all the payment modules again, including Payflow. I was even able to add the Payflow credentials and have a green light.
Is this because my Payflow.php version I downloaded as per above will not work over PHP v5.6? Is there an updated Payflow.php that is compatible with PHPv7.2?

Hi, thanks for responding...

MyDebug states:

[14-Jan-2019 23:28:16 Europe/London] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting ',' or ';' in /home/sites/kentontrimmings.co.uk/public_html/shop/includes/modules/payment/payflow.php on line 1202

Line 1202 in payflow.php is: global $$order_totals[$i]['code'];

Not sure what its getting at. :)

.....the plot thickens.......

if only it were so.... (i love a thick plot...)

php 5 and php 7 handle indirect vars differently. see:

https://goo.gl/yQf8sf

you could try changing the code to:

          // handle other order totals:
          global ${$order_totals[$i]['code']};
          if ((substr($order_totals[$i]['text'], 0, 1) == '-') || (isset(${$order_totals[$i]['code']}->credit_class) && ${$order_totals[$i]['code']}->credit_class == true)) { 

i'm not real sure about the changes on the second line; and you may need to play around with that, ie the ending curly brace may need to be after credit_class. but no doubt, to me, this is what the problem is about.

best.
