Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

[bumba000]

I have set up the htaccess and password files, I have set the auth mode in gco in the admin and it's still not working. I've gone through the docs for install and I don't think I've missed anything.

Thanks,
John

This is likely best in another thread but. . . Paypal isn't responding properly either.

From the Top: this is zc1.3.9g, using ultimate seo urls, fec, gco and paypal.

GCO wont report back at all, paypal sends confirmation to zc but the return landing page is checkout&fecaction=null. I understand that the paypal account needs to know the return address of the response handler.

This site is a dev site and the current live site is attached to the pp account so I cant switch it.

Why all of the problems with the return after payment?

Thanks a Bunch,
John

Sorry for not answering this sooner. Can you check your ZenCart Admin panel and tell me what the calculations are?

Right now they're all set to zero (I'm assuming you mean the google checkout Carrier Calculator Shipping Configuration). The default was $1 on each shipping choice, which didn't work. I changed everything I wasn't using to zero and left the others at $1; didn't work. Then I changed my shipping choices to the amounts mentioned in the google shipping calculator where I got the code; still didn't work. As a last ditch effort, I shifted everything to zero with the same result.

This is where my efforts totally break down, obviously. I don't know what I'm doing wrong or how to fix it.

Can you check your ZenCart Admin Panel > Modules > Payment > Google Checkout for the following option: .htaccess Basic Authentication Mode and please tell me if that is set to true or false. In addition, did you create the .htaccess and .htpasswd files for your /googlecheckout/ directory.

I don't know if this is to me or not, but mine is set to false.

I don't know if this is to me or not, but mine is set to false.

The original quoted text you quoted was in regards to another problem. (Namely that Google Checkout processes and then fails to hit ZenCart and let it know it has an order. My solution was to check if the directory googlecheckout had a .htpasswd and unnecessary lines in .htaccess and remove then and set php over CGI to false.)

Can you check if your option: GoogleCheckout Carrier Calculated Shipping. I don't know why but I started to get the same error as you recently. I switch the above option from false to TRUE and then everything started working again.

Hello,

I'm unable to use coupons and gift certificates with GC.

I've read and searched but there seems to be only two of us with this problem - and no answer yet.

I've installed Zen Cart 1.3.8 and GC 1.4.7 with PHP5

GC works from the Shopping Cart page, the User Registration Page BUT it doesn't appear as an option on the main_page=checkout_payment page so I'm unable to use GC with coupons and gift certificates.

Reading through others' issues, it seems that this is an uncommon problem. Can anyone assist?

Regards,

Ben

I tried to ask this before but I don't think I phrased the question correctly. I use the USPS shipping module which calculates exact shipping. I've been playing around with google checkout (mock purchases, sandbox) and notice that no matter how much I add to the cart, the shipping charges remain the same. They do not increase. Am I missing something, or is that just the way google checkout shipping works?

Also, the only way the module works if I have 'google checkout carrier calculated shipping' set to false. If set to 'true' I get an 'oops' error.

Hi. There shouldn't be any links on the checkout_payment page. GoogleCheckout policies actually prohibit this kind of activity and state THEY have to do the actual checkout then send the results back to your cart for processing. Therefore, the only way this mod works is by using the button provided on the Checkout Page. A customer will NOT return to your cart to complete the checkout and Google Checkout will NOT appear as an option on checkout_payment because of this.

No you were very clear. Just that my GoogleCheckout works with no problem using the settings that I have stated above. It even updates the shipping costs automatically based on the size of the cart.

If you get the oops error when you set that option to GoogleCheckout Carrier Calculated Shipping to FALSE, what is the error message you are receiving?

Hello,

My site offers customers free shipping when their order value reaches $50. So in the admin-shipping, I set up the free shipping options only when the order value reaches $50.

But when I use the google checkout, I find the free shipping options show up in the drop-down menu even the order is way below $50.

How to fix this problem? my site is www.best4future.com
