Hi all,

A client made their first sale over the weekend via Google Checkout.

Couple of problems though:

1. There dosen't seem to be any record of it in Zen Cart - eg under the Google Checkout order statistics when you login to the admin - thye're all at 0. There are no customers logged either.

2. There was no email sent to the address set in Zen Cart. Only realised when they logged into the actual Google Checkout account.

I've used GC on a few ZC sites now with no problem and set this up in exactly the same way - any ideas?

1.38..not tried earlier version.

Carlozdre, you are a superstar.
I just couldn't get my response from google to work and did not get any errors.
Although I find it hard to believe, in the end it was the chmod from 777 to 755 to googlecheckout dir that made it work!!! 777 exposes you but wouldn't think it would prevent it from working.

Anyway, thanks Carlozdre - you're a lifesaver.

Orders ARE supposed to show up in admin. Reasons they might not:

You don't have SSL installed

The API Callback URL in your Google account is incorrect

You have not selected XML as the callback method

If I don't have SSL installed and am using Google Checkout, I will not receive order confirmation or have any record on my admin.. So where can I see what customers order?

Does that mean I have to have SSL installed if I want to use Google Checkout?

You will receive an email from Google with the order information. You can then go to your Google Checkout account and finish processing the order. You will have to manually adjust your cart amounts.

Having SSL means you can do all the order processing from within your zen cart admin and not have to go to your Google Checkout account.

I suppose the information is rather scattered throughout all of the read-me's and troubleshooting text. There are only a few things to setup at Google.
