Need help with Virtual Merchant module

[toboldlygo]

Its hard to say when this is going to be done. I can, however, say I have a deadline of Dec 1, 07, and I usually don't miss deadlines. Still, I can't say its guaranteed.

I am waiting for ThePatch's piece of code so I can look at the error handling. Once I get it I hope to have something in the next few days. Toboldlygo, if you could send me a copy of your code as well it might be helpful.

Will keep you all updated.

Hi noisebug,
I attached the code I have to the response I gave to Patch. Please see that entry.

Thank you for your response. I will read over this entry right away.

ThePatch, not sure if you had a chance to e-mail me your code but I have not received anything. If it is easier to post the specific block of code that is causing you grief I'd be more than happy to look at it.

Thanks all.

Hi Patch and all you other people working on this mod,
With this VM mod, will customers be able to stay on your website during the payment process (i.e. not be taken to a hosted payment page)?

Thanks

We hope to make it transparent to the user, there will be no checkout form. They need to, however, be temporarily redirected to myvirtualmerchant.com to submit the appropriate variables which will all be automated without the user knowing this has happened.

Hi noisebug,
Sorry, I am a little confused. Where would the customer actually enter their credit card info., on the Zen Cart page (page 2 of the checkout process), or on a virtual merchant page?

Hi Patch,

Thanks--much appreciated. I'll watch out for the announcement of the
completed mod. And know my client will appreciate it (even though she
may not realize YET why switching back to VM may be to her advantage).

Best,
Jeanne

They would enter their info in Zencart. The process would look like this:

1. Customer enters CC in Zen Cart
2. Zencart collects all information and gives to Virtual Merchant
3. VM authorizes CC, redirects back to Zen Cart
4. Zen Cart shows receipt for transaction

Hi noisebug,
Thanks for your response. That is what I wanted to hear. I don't want customers to have to leave my site to pay, so this mod sounds like it will be just what I am looking for. I will watch for it with anticipation.

Thanks

Since my client does not have a MerchantID (we are still waiting, ETA is 3 days),
I will need some help testing the code.

I took the ViaKlix and changed a few parameters, however, when I try and test it tells me the VM website is down. I'm not sure if VM is having issues or if its a problem with the module.

Thanks

PS: I did not change the name "ViaKlix" in the module. Rest assured, it will connect to VM not Viaklix.

Hi noisebug,
Did you use the ViaKlix mod that I posted in this thread to make your changes? I noticed that you changed the URL to go to VM instead of ViaKlix. Is that the only change you did?
