Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

neunetllc.com:

does anyone know where google falls under the federal reserve banking system? ie, are they like paypal and can freeze your account for little to no reason at any time?

i'm trying to find the difference - anyone here with this mod installed (and actually working) care to share their experience, good or bad?

No, they are not under the federal reserve banking system, its in their terms and conditions. It under section 4. Also, read section 10 about termination.

So the answer to your question is, yes they can freeze your account for no reason and they will hold money for 90 days.

Does GC v1.3.5 work with ZC 1.3.6?

Does GC v1.3.5 work with ZC 1.3.6?

As far as I can tell, only the /admin/orders.php is affected, and that was only a minor adjustment. You could easily merge the differences using WinMerge.

Zen Cart 1.3.5, here is the issue, I have GoogleCheckout disabled, if disabled should not affect orders.php..

Warning: main(includes/languages//modules/payment/googlecheckout.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/bodybump/public_html/admin/orders.php on line 90

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/languages//modules/payment/googlecheckout.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/bodybump/public_html/admin/orders.php on line 90

Any help would be appreciated.

Installed on 1.3.6 everything is working.
but NO orders in admin ?

Intergration page shows no errors ! but for some reason it's not being updated in the admin page. googlecheckout folder/files are set to 777 and the response_message.log is being updeted by google.

where should i look for a fix ?
which files are involved in updating the admin with new orders ?

I have the same exact problem.
Orders not showing in admin, but the response_message.log is updating and has all the current info.

so let me get this right: they can hold your $ for little to no reason for 90 days and according to section 4.5, they can essentially say it's not their problem?

"Unless otherwise expressly waived by GPC, Seller agrees to release, and does hereby release, GPC and its affiliates, and its and their agents, contractors, officers and employees, from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such Disputes."

not sure why anyone would want this kind of account... but i love a world where we can make such choices if we want!

Errors encountered, I installed a stock Zen-Cart with only the Google Checkout module installed, same error in orders.php. All other payment modules not enabled. I tried it a second time with only moneyorders.php enabled, error occurred again. Same location, same error linking back to error in googlecheckout. ???

Check your config file
includes/languages//modules/payment/googlecheckout.php

I double checked the module, it is in the correct place, but it appears there is an issue in the installation, it should be applied against the root template directory not /YOUR TEMPLATES/templates, etc

That is standard for any company, it protects them from fraud. Read the fine print from the big processors like authorize.

Paypal is notorious for holding account and not giving any reason. Google will more than likely respond quicker and better if there is an issue.

I suggest you consult with an attorney on the google checkout procedures. Their policies are much better than pay pals and their fees are lower.

So, when will this module work with calculated shipping?

Looks like it needs to be:

https://yourstore.com/googlecheckout/responsehandler.php

I keep getting e-mails from google stateing
"We've made several unsuccessful attempts to send order notifications to your notification callback URL, https://www.lextechs.com/admin/googlecheckout/responsehandler.php As a result, you aren't receiving order status, risk, or other notifications. "

In my google setting it https://www.lextechs.com/googlecheckout/responsehandler.php

So iam not sure why they keep looking in admin

Since you original set your url callback to https://www.lextechs.com//admin/googlecheckout/responsehandler.php (which is incorrect), Google will send all updated for your previous order to that url.
For orders that were place after you changed it to https://www.lextechs.com//googlecheckout/responsehandler.php (which is correct), Google will use that url for updates.

The only solution is to call Google and have them stop sending updates for the old orders or copy responsehandler.php to your admin/googlecheckout/ folder.
Mark the previous orders complete/ship, wait a few days. Once the error stop appearing, you can safey delete the admin/googlecheckout/ folder.

Admin section currently does not work. It is a known bug.
The next update should fix it.

I've seen something similar to this error earlier, but not the solution for it.

I am using 1.3.0 for ZC and 1.0.2 for the G checkout mod.

Whenever I try to send data to Google (make a purchase), it 'visibly' forwards to the thank you page of ZC and never makes it to Google. The admin on ZC is updated with the order and I (as the customer) get an email that my order has been placed.

Nothing ever makes it to Google, I never see their pages, and I am not being charged by them.

The system is using PHP 4.3.0 on FreeBSD 4.8 with libCURL 7.10 installed and supported by PHP. The site is secured by a valid cert authority (recognized by Google) which shouldn't matter as the payment data is transferred and the user is redirected to Google.

This is a rather heavily modded version of the cart, but I have been installing mods on stuff for years and this seemed to go rather smooth... until testing :(

No one has asked this yet:

• Is there a way to bring customers back to YOUR site's Thank You / Order Confirmation page?

• If you offer downloads, is there anyway to have googlecheckout support it? (I mean, can customers get back to your Thank You page so they can get their downloads?)

Thanks for the replies in advance.

Has this worked for anyone?

I do not know if it has worked for anyone. I really want to get this installed especially since google is offering no processing fees between November 8th and January 1st now.

Hi Guys....

Just installed Zen (GREAT cart program!)....grabbed googlecheckout mod, installed, testing against sandbox for now, talking to sandbox, no problem in what I see coming/going me->goog->me Seeing state changes coming/going in the response_message.log.

I may be missing something, but in watching the orders in admin->cust->orders, I see the order come in, but it NEVER sees a status change from the original of "Pending". From there, I charge/ship/etc in google, the logs are seeing the status changes but no updates to zen....

Something wrong with my install? or am I just looking in the wrong place ?

Any help appreciated!
Thanks
