PROTX, checkout_process.html is blank when loaded

[craig-heavygoods]

what, to test the checkout process!? or to get into the admin panel

Sorry I'm real new at this zen cart and still a baby in the world of web designers

For the checkout process. Users can only go through the checkout when they're logged in, which means they need an account. If you want people to look at your checkout process, it's courteous to not require them to go through the create account process. But from your point of view, it's even more helpful to be able to concentrate all external test accesses into a single account in case you then want to undo any purchases that they make.

is this what your after?!

The only CVV Code which will return a match is 123.

The AVS Verification will only return a match if the following Billing Address details are used:

Billing Address: 88
Billing Postcode: 412

These are the default billing address details which will be submitted by the module in test mode if the “Use Test Billing Address” checkbox is ticked.

there you go soz about that hopefully it works

[craig-heavygoods]

Right I've just installed the module on my test default site I've got on our local server and it works fine. So there is obviously some code or somthing preventing that last page on the live site I'm working on

Assuming that your URL re-writing mod is working OK, it seems tp be the final steps of your checkout process that are failing and is unlikely to be anything to do with Protx, since you said that the CC module also fails. Paypal takes a different path through the final steps so it's not a big surprise that it works when the others don't.

That your site actually shows a checkout_process page is not normal, as that page's header_php script should have re-directed it to checkout_success first. So I'd start by checking that the header_php file hasn't been cut short somehow, by checking that the version on your server has the PHP closing tag at the bottom.

If there's nothing obviously wrong there, take a look at the checkout_process module. That's a whole serious of steps taken to execute the purchase which is called early in the header_php script.

You could also try simply replacing these who files with fresh copies from the version of Zen Cart that you are using in case one of them is corrupt. Otherwise, it's likely that you will need to insert some echo statements to fins out how far the code is being executed before it fails absolutely, or simply fails to execute the redirect instruction.

cheers for that! you've been a big help!

I'll let you know how I get on, as long as I don't end up smashing my head through the monitor in fustration!

[craig-heavygoods]

right...so I have copied over the \includes\modules\pages\ that relate to teh checkout process so they are all fresh, clean and new and I have doubled checked that the closing tag is on all of the files and still nothing.....

Wait I have just found a file in my modules folder called

checkout_process.xxx

now obviously that ain't a real file!!

Now I'm hoping that could be the answer to problems!?

[craig-heavygoods]

well I feel a bit stupid and when i say a bit I mean VERY VERY VERY

it works now!! you stare at a computer screen all day and you just pass over things you should really pick up!

Cheers for you help if you haven't had mentioned the checkout_process module I wouldn't of even noticed!!!

Craig!
