[ic] Time out errors
Hi everyone.
I just installed minivend software, and everything runs great, except a few
problems I have been having.
1. I add new categories in the admin, and applied changes. They don't show
up in the user section.
2. When I change something, and click on "Apply changes", 8 of 10 I get the
following error message:
"WARNING: Reconfiguration may have timed out."
I looked at the log files, and see this message:
"WARNING: POSSIBLE BAD ROBOT. 51 accesses with no 30 second pause."
Can someone please tell me what I can do to fix these?
Soheil

Subject: [ic] New items, specials not displaying
Reply-To: interchange-users@www.minivend.com
The 'New items' and 'Specials' sections on the index page and results
pages are remaining blank, even though I have flagged some items for each
category in the merchandising database thru the web admin UI.
Looking thru the templates/components directory, files such as
templates/components/promo_vertical obviously are the files being used for
these sections. I can't find any reference in the docs to the
[list][/list] tag. Is this working for anyone else? Is there an easy fix
that I am missing?
The URL for the store is http://www.sufferware.com/intro.htm and then
click in 'The Sufferware Collection.' This store is adult leather goods,
so be forewarned. Nothing too risque, though.
Frustrated in Seattle.

You sent a message to "owner-minivend-users@minivend.com". You

You always do cvs updates in the install directory and NOT in the live
directory.
Let's say you downloaded in /downloads/interchange this will be the install
dir and installed in /usr/local/interchange this will be the live
directory.
Theoretically running the CVS update in the live directory might be ok if
you know what you are doing but I choose NOT to take the risk.
You can pay attention to what gets updated and then decide which updates
you want to move manually to the live dir.
You should be logged in as the user that owns the directory you want to
write to.
You can always do things as root and do a chown later ...

Subject: [ic] Multiple Ship to's
Reply-To: interchange-users@www.minivend.com
Does anyone have a version of the receipt page which handles multiple ship
to's in some reasonable fashion.
What I am looking for is billing information, followed by the 1st shipping
name/address, products, shipping charges and subtotal, the second shipping
name/address, products, shipping charges and subtotal, etc.
I would like this in the receipt email as well.
Any code snippets, or whole pages would be great...
Also the calculation of shipping charges does not seem to work. What I have
set up is two multiply by, shipping options, one called USA and one called
Canada. USA is $5.95 per item and Canada is $9.95 per item. I assigned the
Canada to Canada only, and USA to US only. I have yet to be able to make it
calculate Canadian shipping charges.
When I add a customer with a Canadian address the drop down box for the
shipping method does not contain any items. What might be my problem?

If you are editing a table, and you go to any of the meta links, when you
click cancel or ok it returns you to a 1 field edit
window with the code. Any attempt to leave this screen by OK or Cancel puts
you right back. The only way out is to click a

In the root directory are 2 config files catalog_before.cfg and
catalog_after.cgf this is where the @_Header_@ variable is pulling the
directives from
However, what I've done is under quicklinks, which is easier to edit, this
is
where I made accessing other admin pages that I've created. Those pages that
I've
created are under the admin directory of each catalog.
Quicklinks hyperlink is in the lower left side of the admin

I had a similar problem, and found that the search field in the cat table
needed specific values on new lines and something had made the new lines
disappear...
The values for the record New items is;
fi=merchandising
sf=featured
se=new
Sale Items is;
fi=merchandising
sf=featured
se=special
su=yes
Hope this helps....

One last question, pardon my ignorance;
I have done as you have said, I logged in as interch, I did the cvs commands
with interch as my root, it displays messages as
though it is updating /var/lib/interchange and a bunch of other places.
How can I be sure it updated what it should have?
How do I get the new improved templates and stuff into my catalogs without
overwriting the stuff I've modified?

An open source project, where IC/MV is simplified and secured to
work as a voting ballot box and a discussion how such thing
should work and could count the votes in a secure way. How it could
produce a bullet proof paper based confirmation of the unique vote
casted, which then could be hand or machine recounted in the unlikely
case a hacker had introduced a bias into the box.
Imagine to have a nationwide equal margin of error for all of
the U.S. counties' voting procedures, an inexpensive way for
each county to develop a nationwide standardized ballot.
It could work with a touch screen, with voice, with
pictures. So, even people who can't read, can't write, can't see
and can't walk and can't hold a pencil, could still vote.
Imagine each elementary school would be used as voting boot base,
the U.S. would vote on a Sunday and could use the school busses to
transport people to the voting boots at the schools. I bet the voter
turnout would increase to the 85% percent level and the results would
actually be representative of "something".
Does an open source project like that already exist ?
