Customer does not get forwarded to Paypal after confirm

[Peter Pillen]

check the folder components/com_virtuemart/assets/js  and look if the date of the vmsite.js corresponds to your date of upgrading. Look if you have a compressed vmsite.js.gz from an old date and remove it. DO NOT REMOVE vmsite.js itself. Then also refresh your browsercache to be sure.

From alatak

actually the other (from Orthotes) problem is the following: if you have already customers that browsed your page, they still get the old version

to force the browser to load the new version, you have to change here
administrator/components/com_virtuemart/version.php
static $REVISION = 'Revision: 8515';
put
static $REVISION = 'Revision: 8516';
that should solve the issue

hello

Sorry Peter there was a misunderstanding.

to force the browser to load the new version, you have to change here
administrator/components/com_virtuemart/version.php
static $REVISION = 'Revision: 8515';
put
static $REVISION = 'Revision: 8516';
that should solve the issue

This is for you.

I am looking now at orthotes website

Where should these lines be located?

[GJC Web Design]

plugins\vmpayment\paypal\paypal\helpers\paypalstd.php  around line 179

[orthotes]

Ok the code is here: plugins\vmpayment\paypal\paypal\helpers\paypalstd.php

I've tried your solution and now the paypal page is loaded (and the button "Please wait..." disappeared). So, it seems to work and thank you for your help and patience.
However I test the site in the next days and report you if something goes wrong.

I've read this post too, where the same problem is discussed: http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=126418.0 . According to GJC this is not a bug but I think this is exactly what a bug is meant to do.

All my best!

Hello

(and the button "Please wait..." disappeared).

yes i forgot to ask you to add the submit button also.

Please replace

Code Select Expand

if ($this->_method->debug ) {

$html .= '<div style="background-color:red;color:white;padding:10px;">
<input type="submit"  value="The method is in debug mode. Click here to be redirected to PayPal" />
</div>';
$this->debugLog($post_variables, 'PayPal request:', 'debug');

}

with

Code Select Expand

if ($this->_method->debug ) {

$html .= '<div style="background-color:red;color:white;padding:10px;">
<input type="submit"  value="The method is in debug mode. Click here to be redirected to PayPal" />
</div>';
$this->debugLog($post_variables, 'PayPal request:', 'debug');

} else {
            $html .= '<input type="submit"  value="' . vmText::_('VMPAYMENT_PAYPAL_REDIRECT_MESSAGE') . '" />';

        }

Dear alatak,

it works (but also the file taken from the old release worked).
I hope in future releases the job you've made here could be taken into consideration.
(However I've noticed the not-working plugin [at least for me] comes with the upgrading of aio component, that also uploads a quantity of plugins devoted to different payment methods).

Thanks for your help!

[alatak]

Hello

Please try the file i have provided here http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=126418.msg433853#msg433853

I have tried the fix on orthotes website: http://www.orthotes.com/store/
but it will be great to test with the php version of the file.

[orthotes]

Dear alatak,

I've tried the fix prepared by you. Actually now it works only when the button ("Wait while redirecting... etc.") is pushed but, if not, there isn't any automatic forwarding to paypal page.
Please, let me ask a question: is this an issue that only afflicts my site? And if yes, why? Are not the files the same for everyone who upgrades VM?

Thanks!

[alatak]

Hello

there isn't any automatic forwarding to paypal page.

are you using the file i provided here http://www.orthotes.com/store/ ?

[orthotes]

Yes, I've used them. But since the issue wasn't resolved I've restored those of the old VM version, which correctly work.

[alatak]

Hello
I solved the issue using your website. I am surprise it does not work.

[orthotes]

Dear alatak,

I'm going to write you a private pm with access credentials.

[alatak]

Hello
Thank you very much. I used your test site to fix the problem.
Attached is the file that we are going to release. If someone could test it, that will be great.
Thank you
