Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

[ropu]

There is no fix for GC not showing on step 2. It's against their policy of being an express checkout, not a choice of payment to be mixed in with the rest.

I do have a suggestion for anyone wishing to be able to use the order update feature of zen.

I wrote to support at GC and posed my dilemma of needing to update my customers using ZC but that, since google created the account on the customer's behalf, it's impossible for them to log in to view the order.

Support wrote back asking if there was any way I could create a "generic" password to give GC customers. Well, I have Master Password installed but there's no way I am going to run the security risk of making that known to every GC customer I have, so I came up with this idea...



It's a clunky work around, I'm aware, but if they have no way to log in, then by offering GC we have basically allowed Google to hijack the entire order process and any additional functions of the admin post sales.

GC doesn't even give the order the same order number as what's on my cart, so I forsee a lot of needless time spent having to play detective and match up GC orders to ZC orders. Frankly, I am too busy for that and depend heavily on the admin features. If I didn't need all the tools in admin I might as well just have an html page with "buy now" buttons.

Well, regarding this issue, we can add something so the buyer can know the password of its account, right now is a "random" number, and send it via email. (must double check GC TOS)

Regarding order number and gc order number correlation, a liitle bug at resposehandlder.php in the last update, just add "true" in comments instead of "Google Checkout Order No: 257655093060590
Merchant Calculations used: False "

                           'comments' => 'Google Checkout Order No: ' . $data[$root]['google-order-number']['VALUE']. "\n" .
                                   'Merchant Calculations used: '. ((@$data[$root]['order-adjustment']['merchant-calculation-successful']['VALUE'] == 'true')?'True':'False'));  //Add Order number to Comments box. For customer's reference.

Assuming that your GCO is correctly installed it shows up on page 2. I actually had to manually remove the radio button for GCO on step 2 because when it's there, if the customer selects it they are able to checkout of the store without paying for it

Bless, it supposed that you dont need to do it manually, the module already does that

includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_checkout_payment_default.php line 128-130

    if (sizeof($selection) > 1) {
      if($selection[$i]['id'] == "googlecheckout")
        continue;

i have updated the SVN, this revision corrects the quoted issue, and when in the Admin UI->customers->order->"Any GC order" you just Update it with out changing its state (combo besides Status:) with Notify Customer: checked an email with the comment will be sent to the Buyer.

ps: Also the password for the user is his GC account number. (user is its email, if he uses a google fowarded mail, it will be that one, NOT the original)

Is it strange that I can place an order without any kind of payment?

I only offer payment method of Google checkout. When I checkout it I go normal steps of 1, 2 3 instead of google checkout, then in the step 3 although the payment method is list as Google checkout, and I can confirm the order without any payment.


When I add another payment method: "check/money order", the payment method is stick to "check/money order", and it does not allow me to add Google checkout. This seems reasonalble.

The problem is if I only accept Google checkout. In step 2 of 3, it should disable the continue if the buyer can not pay full amount by Gift Certificates. Can anyone help me out? Thanks

I'm having the same issue. I am trying to use Google Checkout as my sole payment processor as well. Any insight into this would be much appreciated.

Thats a special feature u r asking. I want to know if everything else is working.

if so, we can proceed to do a custom mod for your needs.

ropu,

I've had this error in the integration:
We encountered an error trying to access your server at https://kebeid.com/googlecheckout/responsehandler.php -- the error we got is: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path validation failed: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: subject/issuer name chaining check failed

I've found it on the forum to be that the SSL cert. was installed incorrectly, and thats what Google says (the hierarchy isn't returned correctly by the responsehandler.php), but my SSL provider says otherwise - that it is installed correctly and my browsers say the same. Can this at all be from responsehandler.php? I'm just wondering because that is the only logical idea I can come up with right now. Thanks for your help!

-Pete

PS responsehandler.php has no probs loading - blank screen and no errors.

Thought I would revisit the GC support thread and see what's happening with the beta testing process. When I observed a recent GC for ZC update was available I became very happy. But then when I see different version numbers I became confused once again ;-)

A. In the ZC Support downloads area I observe:

- Fix _tax-table-selector_ strict validation.
- Update new sandbox url (must uninstall/install module)
googlecheckout/gcheckout.php and includes/modules/payment/googlecheckout.php are the only files modified.

Version: 1.0.4r

B. But on the Google Code site at
http://google-checkout-zencart.googl...n/trunk/README
shows the following in the README:

11/28/2006 v1.0.5 (ropu)
- Add support for Merchant Calculated Shipping Rates.
- Fixed minor bugs in responsehandler.php and orders.php files
- Change the XML parser and builder
- Removed getallheader() function
- Fixed wrong Qty in Admin UI
- Fixed modules not saving their settings
- Fixed Notify Customer option
- Add state change, Risk and charge notification into the Admin UI
- Add support for coupons
- Fix Shopping cart not obtained from session. See TROUBLE SHOOTING.

01/12/2007 v1.0.5b1 (ropu)
- Fix <tax-table-selector> strict validation.


But the downloads area at
http://code.google.com/p/google-chec...downloads/list
shows:
google-checkout-zencart-v1.0.4r.zip
Google Checkout for Zencart - v1.0.4r


-> DOES ANYONE SEE THE INCONSISTENCY. The latest package in ZC downloads area has the same date as the latest package on Google site. But the version numbers are completely different.

I do understand the latest SVN versions (released after 01-12-07) are different from all of the above, but shouldn't the latest non-SVN downloads, with the same date (Jan 12) show the same version number? That would be my thinking.

BTW how do I observe the date of the latest SVN updates? I do not see any date changes in the files. Do I need to run subversion from the shell to retrieve such file date info?

Thanks.

Can you tell me if this has been implemented yet?

I don't know what version of the responsehandler.php you are referring to, but the one I have doesn't even go to line 785. It ends at line 625. I am using your link in your signature to get to the latest SVN and if that's incorrect please advise. It states last update was 1/12. I am getting the files from this link:
http://google-checkout-zencart.googl...com/svn/trunk/

The mod in the d/l section is date with last revision of 1/12 also. If there is an updated version of this please let me know. I can't even get the sandbox to work with the version I have installed on a fresh zen cart. The logo does not appear and when you click the word "Google" where the logo should be, it gives the browser error message that the page cannot be loaded. (This is in sandbox mode and I suspect that since the sandbox address recently changed, that I am using an outdated version of the necessary files).

Hi Woodymon, is good to see you here again.

First, there is no confusion in the versions.

Version 1.0.4 is the one that does NOT support merchant calculations and is more stable.
Version 1.0.5 is the one that DOES support MC but is in beta.

I did an update in BOTH modules, because, as README says, GC server and sandbox had changed (XML rules and Sandbox URL). The idea is to support Both version until v1.0.5 is more stable. Right now only v 1.0.4 is available to download via package (.zip) in ZC download page and code google. But v.1.0.5 is available via SVN at
http://google-checkout-zencart.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ (Latest Update 19/01/07) This trunk SVN path is for Beta Testing, not latest Stable release

There is also an svn with all versions.
http://google-checkout-zencart.googl.../svn/branches/ (There youll find V1.0.4 too)

To see the latest modification Run an SVN update.

Hope this clear your confusion.
