Checkout by Amazon Zen Cart Plug-in

**retched** · 13 Oct 2010, 04:47 AM

A while ago I introduced a way on getting the cron "wget" to work with Zencart which involved deleting the entry of "wget" from spiders.txt inside the /zencart/includes directory.

After doing some testing on my (semi-)live server, I HIGHLY suggest the following change:

Open /zencart/checkout_by_amazon.php and look for:

PHP Code:


require('includes/application_top.php');

IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THIS LINE, on the prior line, add the following:

PHP Code:


define('SESSION_BLOCK_SPIDERS','False');

So your checkout_by_amazon.php should look like this:

PHP Code:


define('SESSION_BLOCK_SPIDERS','False');
require('includes/application_top.php');

Once this is done, go back and edit back in the word "wget" on a line by itself on spiders.txt. This way you don't open your ENTIRE site up to remote wget attacks.

Again not work yet, no order shows anywhere, but buyer did get the confirm email.

1. so how do I updated the correct end point in the Merchant URL under Settings > Checkout Pipeline Settings > Instant Order Processing Notification Settings in seller central?

2. how about corn code, how to do that

1) To update the correct endpoint, you'd have to edit this in AmazonCentral. Also make sure that you're doing this under Sandbox and that your configuration details match those registered under ZenCart.

2) This generally depends on your host. If you have a host that uses CPanel, this is VERY easily done by a few clicks. If you're on a Windows based server, we're going to need to work a bit.

thanks, although I still did not know what I should put in Merchant URL box, is this www.isparkling.com/checkout-php?
I use CPanel, so what I should do next, please help.

Here are my settings...

Cancel Payment Return Settings - The home page of the cart

Instant Order Payment Notification URL should be - the home page of the cart/checkout_by_amazon.php.

For CPanel, log in to CPanel and scroll to the (normally) bottom of the page and look for Cron Jobs. Most hosts do not have this option enabled.

my host did not allow to set cron job less than 30min, so can I set up every 30min?
