Subject: [ic] Running interchange with apache mod_ssl
Message-ID: <20031130221509.GA18530@scanningsystems.com.au>

Greetings all,

I have recently set up a new interchange 4.9.8 server and I am having a
few problems.

I have the server running fine and have got all of the credit card stuff
working but I can not get Interchnage to work with the apache mod_ssl
server for the secure pages. 

When you try to access any of the secure pages it fails because suexec if
complaining about ic being seduid or setgid. 

I got around the problem of ic not being in the default suexec base
directory by recompiling it from debian source with the correct path to
where the ic cgi-bin files are.

I have tried taking the setuid bit off the interchange files but ic fails
to run at all when this is done.

How do I get ic to run with apache mod_ssl ? I thought this would have
been will documented, but as with most things with ic, it isn't.

Regards

Subject: [ic] Certain Orders not showing up in the Admin UI
Message-ID: <3FCBC767.27450.1000504@localhost>

Hi,

My partner and I have this problem with our store using Interchange 
4.9.5.

Certain Orders (both pending and archived) are not showing up in the 
Admin UI. 

However, the order details can be found in the following places:

1) the orders directory as the ordernumber
2) the transaction log in the  logs/log file. All log entry indicate 
that the order is successful, (i.e. details are appended with the 
number 1)
3) tracking.asc where the details of the transactions can be found

No error at all in both the error.log in the catalog directory as  
well as the interchange directory. No entries were found in icdebug.

It has occurred under at least 2 different type of circumstances:

a) the server time was reset to before the last date/time of the last 
order number
b) the last order had the shipping method and total cost modified. 
However, previous such modifications gave no such problem.

New orders do show up in the Admin UI without any problems.

Question:
Has anyone ever encountered such situations?

What are the possible reasons for it to occur?

Are there any possible solutions to avoid this particular problem?


Thanks in advance,
Dominic Tey

Hi all,

4.9.7
Signio.pm

Just curious...

I'm trying to keep the customers from entering spaces, 
slashes, dashes etc into the credit card number field.  

Does anyone see anything wrong with this setup?

[input-filter name=mv_credit_card_number op=digits][/input-filter]
<input type="text" name="mv_credit_card_number" size="20" maxlength="20">

We only take Visa/MC, Discover and Amex so 20 digits is sufficient.

Nothing 'wrong' that comes to mind, but it is really not necessary, since 
the interchange payment routines strip all non-digit characters from 
mv_credit_card_number before evaluating it.

I am trying to get item_option.html to work on an upgraded catalog in the
admin section.  I migrated the foundation catalog from a 4.7.3 server to a
4.8.9 and it seems to only want to run item_option_old.html.  I looked at
the code but still am a little lost, I was wondering if someone has gone
through this and knew what I had to upgrade to get this to work.

Many Thanks,
Sam

Do you have an item_option_old.html file in the pages/admin section of your
catalog?

that the html causes a big problem when i try to edit it infor example
Excel.  Anyone have any input on a way I can go about this.  The characters
in the HTML seem to be the issue with Excel / Access.

Message-ID: <200312011353.23606.cwenham@synesmedia.com>


 Is there a way to display item-options in the mail receipt without showing 
options that have no value? I have a client who needs to suppress the display 
of option labels when the value is empty, because otherwise the mail receipt 
looks confusing to the customer. 

 Before writing a custom item-options-report tag, I'd like to know if this 
functionality is already in the existing [item-options] tag. The "report=1" 
parameter isn't sufficient on its own.

Hi Grant thanks for the reply,
Yeah and that works but there are some new options with the item_option.html
file for example that allow you to adjust the price of an option without
having to do it manually through the options table.  BTW its a 4.9.8 server
not 4.8.9... thanks again

Create a front-end with Access and link it with ODBC to your db (I use a
SSH-tunnel through the firewall to the db-server). That is a fast way to
maintain your db.

Grant,
  When i hit it it goes to item_options_old.html, what I am trying to do is
add simple options to an item: But because of the code below it defaults to
item_option_old.html.  I have updated the mysql table to include the new
columns which are part of the 4.9.8 package.  In my catalogs which are made
in 4.9.8 simple options have a link to the flex editor which alows you to
alter the price of an option but i can't get that to show up on the old
upgraded sites (4.7.3).  So I guess i am trying to figure out how to fix
this or atleast just add it.  Should i just delete the o_enable column as
they are not still around in 4.9.8?

****************<item_option.html snip>******************
 my $oenable = $Config->{OptionsEnable};

        if(! $oenable) {
                $Scratch->{bounce_url} = $Tag->area( {

                href => 'admin/item_option_old',

                form => "

                                item_id=$CGI->{item_id}

                                ",

        });
                return;

Is there an OptionsEnable directive that needs to be set?

Thats kind of my question I mean from looking at the code OptionsEnable is
when there is a 1 in the o_enable column of a product.  Again its a 4.7.3
function and deleting the column does not fix the issue.  Anyone?

I think you might need to copy an etc/after.cfg to your upgraded 
catalog (use makecat with the foundation demo). In mine, there are a 
few lines which might do what you need:

OptionsEnable option_type
Replace ProductFiles
ProductFiles   products variants

Good call Josh that did the trick as far as getting the item_option.html to
be used but now other issues seem to plauge me.  First of all the old
options are now unusable and I can't seem to get pass the option selector
screen.  I see that there is work to be done with the variant table and I
have made sure that all of the colums are there for products is there an
easier way to do this?  The main thing here is the upgrade path of these
catalogs mv_metadata obviously doens't take care of it all.  Thanks again

Subject: [ic] order process
Message-ID: <00af01c3b8d4$ef103460$490a0a0a@pugmarks>

Hi @ all,

can anybody explain where the code for the order processing is located?

The background:
I have a checkout page where the customer can change the shipping addresses
for the order (with a select field, populated from the address book). Ok,
that works fine. But if the customer changes the address and sends the order
the address data becomes changed in the userdb as well.
What I want is that the default shipping address in the userdb not is
touched and the address that has been selected during the checkout is the
one that is written into the transaction table.
So I guess that anywhere there's a code which contains a SQL command like
"INSERT INTO userdb VALUES..." (or a similar ITL tag) . And that I don't
need.

Somebody an idea?

Thanks
Gerhard

This is done with [userdb save], normally as a result of submitting the
checkout page in the Save_database click. All you have to do is remove
the mv_check setting which calls this, or make it a radio button
defaulting to don't save.

not sure exactly how your 'address book' or values thereof are set up,
but you can modify the files: etc/log_entry and etc/log_transaction where
updates are made to the userdb table.

actually, i believe the userdb stuff is only in log_entry ..

Subject: [ic] Table creation error when using database mappings
Message-ID: <20031202160124.GA1850@worxpace>

Hi all,

I'm using Interchange 4.9.9 with PostgreSQL. For internationalisation
I'm using the locale based database mappings found in the foundation
catalog. Now there is a problem when importing a database/table with
mappings into an sql database with support for transactions. The actual
problem is raised in Vend::Table::Common (in function
import_ascii_delimited()) when trying to call the commit() function on
the database table object, which for databases with mappings is
represented by Vend::Table::Shadow, which unfortunately doesn't
implement a commit() function.

Adding the following simple function to Vend::Table::Shadow resolves the
problem:

sub commit {
	my ($s) = @_;
	$s = $s->import_db() unless defined $s->[$OBJ];
	return $s->[$OBJ]->commit();
}

As I don't have a full understanding of Interchange's internals I would
like to know if this is the right way to fix this problem.

Bye,
Thomas

Subject: [ic] Problem with PGP and credit card
Message-ID: <GPEPLHLEJFCCEPKPCFECAECNCIAA.tode@bpanet.de>

Hi,

a few days before i read about "set up gpg with interchange" in the mailling
list.

Few informations about the server

os : FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE
gpg : gpg (GnuPG) 1.2.1
IC : 4.8.7

I thought myself it could not be a problem, because the tutorial was not
bad. So I began.

I set the variables

- PGP		/usr/local/bin/gpg --no-default-keyring --always-trust --keyring
/usr/home/foo/.gnupg/public.gpg -e -a --batch -t -r '%s'
- PGP_KEY	foo@localhost

in the variable.txt

Add to the catalog.cfg :
Variable    EncryptProgram  __PGP__
Variable    EncyptKey       __PGP_KEY__

Route Main looks like this (think you want to know):
Route main        attach           0
Route main        credit_card      1
Route main        cybermode        ""
Route main        default          1
Route main        email            '__ORDERS_TO__'
Route main        encrypt          0
Route main        encrypt_program  "__PGP__"
Route main        errors_to        '__ORDERS_TO__'
Route main        increment        0
Route main        pgp_cc_key       "__PGP_KEY__"
Route main        pgp_key          "__PGP_KEY__"
Route main        receipt          etc/receipt.html
Route main        report           etc/report
Route main        supplant         1
Route main        individual_track orders
Route main        track            logs/tracking.asc

Everytime I get a report the value of mv_credit_card_info is NEED ENCRYPTION
ENABLED.

OK, so i look back in the route main, found encrypt and set it 1, but than
the email contains nothing.
So I change it back.

The report use this to send the email text :

[tag op=mime description="Order Text" interpolate=1]
[scratch order_text]
[/tag]

Now I've no idea what is wrong and how I can fix it.

Help, please.

Regards,

Lars

You could place this piece of code on the checkout-page

[if term="[env REMOTE_ADDR]" op="eq" compare="12.34.56.78"]
  [bounce href="[area tage.html]"]
[/if]

I still haven't been able to figure out this problem. Is there an easy 
way to totally disable the admin security? All administrators have full 
access to every thing within the admin site so I don't need any of the 
role functionality. I would then just use the web server to secure the 
site.

This isn't my ideal solution but it would give me some more time to 
figure it out.

Thanks again for all of the suggestions.

Take a look in your Interchange tmp directory (...catalogname/tmp or 
whatever).
If I recall correctly, GPG/PGP output/errors will write to an 
obviously-named
file there.

Carefull here.  Every single user on my cities cable modem service shows
up as coming from just one IP.  That is the IP of their local web cache.

Folks in this city are often locked out from web sites that have usage
limits.  THe smart ones try to be first to those sites just after midnight
when the usage counter resets.

I ran into some weird admin UI login problems a while ago and it turned out I didn't have the URL alias I was using for my site listed in interchange.cfg.  Are you rewriting URLs with Apache?  If so you need to have the URL alias you're using listed at the end of the catalog's entry in interchange.cfg.  If you don't then you won't get a cookie set correctly at login.  So you may get past the login screen to the main menu, but when you hit a page that checks for your login again it will think you're not cause the cookie's not set right.

Hello Frederic,

I saw your posts on the list about getting rid of the /cgi-bin/scriptname
portion of Interchange catalog URLs using apache's mod_rewrite. I've been
trying this out on a catalog I'm building and it's working great except for
one thing.

There are certain areas in the Admin UI that aren't rewriting correctly and
result in an error. I happens when performing functions such as edits or
deletions on a database, looks like it may have to do with the urls that
contain a /ui portion.

I'm not very familiar with mod_rewrite and was wondering if you've come across
this problem in the catalog you set up or if you have any ideas on rules that
will fix it.

To anyone else reading this:
I've seen reference to mod_interchange and have looked a bit at
http://www.interchange.rtfm.info/downloads/mod_interchange.html, but I'm
unclear as to how this will effect the IC catalogs I have running. I run
multiple catalogs and would prefer to set up something on a per-catalog basis
that won't require me to go into each catalog's config in order to prevent
malfunctions. Anyone out there who's using mod_interchange, could you please
let me know more about how it works with multiple catalogs?

Thanks,
Tom

Running
Apache 1.3.27
Interchange 4.8.6

excellent! it is perfect and you do not have to use it for every
catalog, only the ones that you want.  basically, you enable 
mod_interchange
so that it can be used, then only on catalogs that you want to use
it on, modify your apache configs for that virtual domain with a few lines
and all of the other catalogs can be left alone.  then modify the url
settings in your variable file and your done.  its the way to go ...

Thanks, Aaron! Any suggestions for a good walk-through on setting up
mod_interchange?

Message-ID: <1070400455.2531.20.camel@localhost>

IC 4.9.9, MySQL 4.0.16

I have indirect_login set to email in my UserDB config. I also have a
UNIQUE INDEX on my email column in the userdb table. This seems like a
reasonable thing to do.

Creating a new account was not working because of the UNIQUE INDEX. It
worked once but would not work after that because the insert statement
was failing with out including the 'email' value.

I have made some hacks to UserDB.pm to fix this for myself. I will post
the changes if anyone thinks they would be of value. Someone please tell
me if I am just missing something here.

Thanks and Happy ICing!

Hi Ryan,

I'm actually not doing any rewriting but I think you might be onto 
something with the cookies. When I log into my admin site, it does not 
set the "MV_SESSION_ID" cookie. When I log into the admin site at 
http://demo.icdevgroup.org, it does set the cookie.

Where is the logic that sets the MV_SESSION_ID cookie? I would like to 
check it out and see why it isn't getting set.

Thanks for your help.

I'm doing free shipping on one item by checking for that item on the 
checkout page, and if ordered, erasing the shipping, but only if they 
haven't selected a faster shipping method (my default is 'flat'). It's 
pretty limited, but here's the code:

[if ordered 1003227]
[and value mv_shipmode eq "flat"]
   [assign shipping=0.00]
[else]
   [assign clear=1]

I got it working. I set the CookieDomain in my catalog.cfg and that took 
care of the problem. I must have just been getting lucky in the older 
versions of IC and didn't need it. Thanks for pointing me in the right 
direction!

I don't understand why you think there are two INSERT operations.

If you are telling me that a subsequent UPDATE fails because the email
column is not included in the list of fields updated, I would say that
is a problem in MySQL. I see no reason that you have to include a field
on every update.

In Vend::UserDB::new_account there is this:

  my $pass = $udb->set_field(
      $self->{USERNAME},
      $self->{LOCATION}{PASSWORD},
      $pw,
      );
  die ::errmsg("Database access error.") . "\n" unless defined $pass;

  if($foreign) { ...

If you somehow have row with a value of '' in the email column the above
dies. MySQL complains with error 1062 duplicate key '' for key 2. Now I
realize that there should not be a value of '' in the email column but some
how it happened. When it did no one else could create an account and
therefore no new customers could buy anything a this particular store.

I rewrote the above as follows and it solved my problem.
  my $fary;
  my $vary;
  push @$fary, $self->{LOCATION}{PASSWORD};
  push @$vary, $pw;
  if($foreign) {
    push @$fary,$foreign;
    push @$vary,$self->{PASSED_USERNAME};
  }

  my $pass = $udb->set_slice(
      $self->{USERNAME},
      $fary,
      $vary,
      );


Please tell me what you think. I can take it like a man!

  This could be obvious to everyone else but would you mind sharing
how/when
did you realize this was happening i.e. what triggered you ?  And perhaps
share the
IP address so everyone can check their logs ?   Sounds kind of scary to me.

I was first notified of this activity by my merchant account (NOVA). I
don't have the ip address of this specific perpetrator (nor am I sure
how to obtain this information). I was hoping to just block any three
declines in a row by the same customer. The information being used with
the fraudulent credit card numbers is listed below:

I've a look today morning threw all directories and subdirectories in tmp

Why do you think it could be a gpg problem?

I think it is fine. The case seems pretty borderline, but I guess
it could happen; it did. 8-)

I think that the $pass = ... is wrong, though. It will actually
return the username.  Perhaps the value is not used after that;
but it would make sense to name it something else.

Hello,

I have some performance problem while entering big orders 50 - 200 items with options.
It seems to me that the INSERT command for the orderline is causing the problems.
I know that in Postgres there an option to speedup this process by using the COPY command.
Can someone help me out on this issue - it suppose to go to the log_transaction in some way.

Here is my configuration:
2 X P3-550Mhz 512MB RAM
Fedora 1.0
IC 4.9.9 (RPM)
Perl 5.8.2 + Bundle::Interchange (from source)
Postgresql 7.4

Are you sure the discount is actually being applied? Is the correct
total or the total pre-discount being charged to their CC?
Make sure you don't have a [discount ALL_ITEMS][/discount] somewhere,
which would remove the discount.

Subject: [ic] Performance issues with i18n
Message-ID: <20031203174540.GA1844@worxpace>

Hi all,

I'm building an internationalized catalog with Interchange 4.9.9 and the
locale based database mappings as found in the foundation catalog. My
problem is that as soon as the mappings are used (by using a locale
other than the default) everything gets terribly slow. The reason is the
way Vend::Table::Shadow applies the mappings when querying the database.

For example when using the foundation catalog's data and database mapping
settings it takes about 80 sql queries to build the category menu (with
the category_vertical component) when using the default locale (no
mappings in use, no Vend::Table::Shadow), but with a non-default locale
in use it takes about 950 sql queries to do the same, which is IMHO way
too much to be efficient.

So, have I missed something? Is there an alternative way to do
internationalisation of the catalog data in Interchange? How are others
doing it besides throwing fat hardware at the problem?

You need to change the [item-price] and [item-subtotal] tags to 
[item-discount-price] and [item-discount-subtotal], respectively. These 
should show the discounted price if there's a discount, if not, the 
regular price.

I posted this bug on Nov 10 under the subject: Bug in 
etc/log_transaction or PREFIX-subtotal. Fixing etc/log_transaction will 
fix your Admin. Here's a snip from that post:

----
The docs claim that PREFIX-subtotal takes discounts into effect, but 
this is not happening.

I've fixed my etc/log_transaction by changing the subtotal line (where 
the orderline rows are written) to:
"subtotal: [if discount [item-code]][item-discount-subtotal 
noformat][else][item-subtotal noformat][/else][/if]"

This also fixes the orders (new ones, anyways) in the UI.

Perhaps there's a better way to do that, or perhaps the PREFIX-subtotal 
tag should be fixed? Earlier, I had to change 
include/checkout/shopping_cart, etc/receipt.html, and etc/mail_receipt 
to use the PREFIX-discount-subtotal tag as well.
----

(My etc/mail_receipt item subtotal looks like: [if discount 
[item-code]][item-discount-subtotal][else][item-subtotal][/else][/if]. 
Maybe the if isn't necessary, I don't remember.)

Josh

Hello,

for two projects I would like to use Interchange as SOAP server (4.9). I
wrote a little
test script, but unfortunately it fails:

#! /usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use SOAP::Lite;

my $ic = SOAP::Lite -> uri ('http://localhost:7780/Vend/SOAP/')
	-> proxy ('http://localhost:7780/matstock')
	-> on_debug (sub {print @_})
	;

$ic->Values->result();

Here is the debugging output:

What the heck is the Client-Junk header ? Is that coming from SOAP::Lite.

If I telnet to localhost 7780 and paste the query, the answer is coming in
the body of the

I would really appreciate any help in this matter, because I'm stuck for now
with this

Hi Scott,

Try looking in the error logs. If there is a problem, it should show up 
there.  Anything there?  It could be many things, could you be more

You might consider checking the session id, and see if it was the same for
all attempts - maybe you could limit it in this fashion.

Hi,

Being new at this, I think the error message I get is as follows:

I added EncryptProgram and EncryptKey to my catalog.cfg

Variable    EncryptProgram  /usr/local/bin/gpg
Variable    EncyptKey       /usr/home/foo/.gnupg/me.pkr

I get this NEED ENCRYPTION ENABLED, too.

Is there a problem with the key file, or should I use the mail-address as
EncryptKey?

That is totally wrong. I suggest to look at a catalog.cfg from the
IC distribution.

Wrong, look in the .structure file...  and it is the key, not the 
keyring...  You MUST have gpg setup so that it will run as the INTERCH 
process and the gpg files within its path...

	IC 4.9.9, MySQL 4

	In MySQL, I altered a table to include a new field.  I then went into 
the admin UI and added said field to show up in the editor, and 
immediately started getting 500 errors as soon as I went back to the 
item editor.  This is what the logs tell me:

10.0.1.2 dhcggmaZ:192.168.0.100 - [04/December/2003:07:22:29 -0500] 
fmridc /cgi-bin/fmridc/admin/item_edit.html Runtime error: Can't use 
string ("price") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at 
/Users/peter/interchange/lib/Vend/Table/Editor.pm line 3403.

	The table I am accessing is not named "products" but is one of the 
ProductFiles in catalog.cfg, but the table does not contain a field 
named "price".  Is that necessary?

	Can anyone tell me why this is happening?

Thanks,

Peter

EncryptKey is not a filename. It is an identifier that selects
the key. It is whatever would select a unique key from this
command line:

	gpg --list-keys UNIQUE_STRING

For instance, I do:

	gpg --list-keys 6792C81F

and get

First of all, reconfig the catalog after changing tables via MySQL.

You didn't restart IC. Interchange reads the table at catalog config
time, and builds the column setup then. 

Do "apply changes" and all should be well.

 Are you using Safari or Konqueror as your browser? 

 I saw this error once after using Konqueror to edit the UI, and the only way 
I could fix it was to replace products/mv_metadata.asc with a clean copy from 
the original foundation catalog. (You'll have to then delete 
mv_metadata.gdbm, too). 

 The problem didn't come back after I made the same UI edit with Internet 
Explorer.

I am using 4.8.7, but I have upgraded SOAP.pm and SOAP/Transport.pm to the current CVS. I just can't figure out why it works, except the result is returned in the Client-Junk header instead of the body of the response. Does it have something to do with the SOAP::Lite version or possibly the LWP version which is responsible for the Client-Junk header? 

Thank you very much for your time,

Subject: [ic] tables spilling into other shops
Message-ID: <3FCF6B32.5030900@goldissue.com>

Hi,

Tonight I visited a client and we built a photography shop by 
constructing area.txt, cat.txt, and products.txt using excel. We 
discovered later that the the links which we had created for cameras, 
binoculas appeared on another client's site - a hardware shop.

Because I use a method of cloning where I build a new shop using 
makecat, and then write a script to copy the (improvements) from the 
previous shop (the templates and tables and pages) to the new shop. I 
though maybe the system uses symbolic links which might be causing this 
or could it be file ownerships?

Has anybody got an idea how I should tackle this?

Regards,

Frank Reitzenstein.

Does it have something to do with the SOAP::Lite version or possibly the LWP version which is responsible for the Client-Junk header? 

If I remember correctly, the Client-Junk is in fact coming from LWP. You need
to fix your Server.pm in order to get SOAP working with 4.8.7. The patch
you probably need has been applied with CVS revision 2.28:

revision 2.28
date: 2003/03/08 00:14:58;  author: racke;  state: Exp;  lines: +3 -2
ensure that SOAP server adds a blank line between HTTP header
and HTTP body

Probably you cannot use the patch directly on 4.8, but look at the changes.

We once had a similar situation. Have you checked if the
Database Setup section in catalog.cfg of both shops
happen to point to the same database? What DBMS do you
use?

Thankyou Marc,

I use mysql.

I found a reference to the hardware shop's database in the photo shop's 
catalog.cfg It had occured to me but I was not sure where to look.

I've been hacking around a little bit and have been able to speed up the
database mapping for this case by more than factor 3. The benchmarks
have been done with the foundation catalog's process page with
category_vertical being the only enabled component. Always a non-default
locale setting was used. Interchange was running on my workstation, a
PC with a P4 1.5GHz CPU and 512MB and the database server (PostgreSQL)
was running on a machine with a PIII 550GHz CPU with 768MB RAM.

The number of database queries required to display the page has dropped
from about 950 down to about 120 which raises the number of pages
Interchange can server in a minute from 28 up to 95. When using single
table mappings (i.e. the mapped column is in the same table as the
original column) it served 106 pages in 1 minute.

The optimizations made were 1) omitting an unnessessary call to
record_exists() in Vend::Table::Shadow and 2) letting the database
server do the hard work applying the mappings instead of doing it
manually.

Below are patches against Vend::Table::DBI (CVS Version 2.57) and
Vend::Table::Shadow (CVS Version 1.43) which implement these
optimizations. The patches are meant as a proof-of-concept kind of thing
and there is of course room for improvement. The most important thing
to do is support optimization even if the fallback option is set for
the mapping. Currently optimization is done only if fallback is off
but it can relatively easy be implemented (see patch no. 2 for details).

I'm looking forward to hear any opinions.

I guess before pointing new users to searching the archives, maybe the

tell them about http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/ or make sure they use the 
Google search.

I would guess it would be best to just remove the "Interchange" list 
search and out-of-date archives from the mailing lists page to avoid 
confusion.  And simply leave the Google intact.  And possibly put a link

Just my thoughts...

This optimization effort is welcome. However, as a real means of optimzing
I recommend looking at timed-build. Just wrapping the category display
in 

	[timed-build login=1 file="tmp/category_[scratch mv_locale]" minutes=10]
	(the ITL for category display)
	[/timed-build]

should remove the necessity to pay too much attention to this. Of course
it will not work for users who don't accept cookies, but that should
be a small percentage.

Subject: [ic] Matrix options inventory -- yet again.
Message-ID: <3FCF86BF.3060003@vianet.ca>

Please CC me as this email address is not on the list.

Version: 4.9.8

I've searched the lists and have come to no real conclusion about the 
state of inventory controls with regards to matrix options.  Here's what 
I understand: "It doesn't work the way it should.".

Basically, you can buy things even if there is no stock in the option 
item.  It will even bring the inventory count below 0 (-5 for example). 
  This is plain silly in my opinion.  This method confuses would be IC 
users that are trying to sell clothing, for example.  As they would have 
multiple sizes, colours, etc., and different inventory for each.

Sooo, should I stop complaining and patch it myself, or is there 
something I can do to have it notify/email/complain/etc when a 
particular option is out of stock?

I think the current matrix option inventory system should either be 
disabled or improved.  In it's current state, it makes no sense (to me). 
  It only adds hope that it functions the same way as the regular item 
inventory does, which of course, it does not.  And in the end it may 
give some users a bad taste for IC (and less consulting money for Mike ;))

Let me know what you think.

Thanks much,

I know Mike Heins did a patch for the 4.8.3 version some time back
when I was looking for an easy way. You might want to look at that
here: http://www.icdevgroup.org/archive/interchange-users/2001/msg12003.html
and that worked fine except if I remember, you could end up with a blank
drop down if no item options had inventory.

Recently if an item has matrix options, I do a quick row count to make
sure there are options available for that item. If not, don't display
and the buy button and direct them to out of stock notification system.
If so, just build our own drop down with a query, containing only those
options that inventory.

  [query sql="select options.code, options.description from options LEFT
JOIN inventory ON inventory.sku=options.code where inventory.quantity > 0
AND options.sku = '[ITEM-CODE]' ORDER BY description"
         type=list]
		 <SELECT NAME="mv_sku">
      [list]
	  <OPTION VALUE="[sql-param code]">[sql-param description]
      [/list]
	  </SELECT>
  [/query]

THAT, I'm certain can be cleaned up, but it works for me and too
busy to mess with something that works. Hopefully this is a good
starting point for you. Maybe someone has a cleaner way of
getting it done.


Good luck!

Jerry

I saw that too, but I guess I ASSuMEd it was already included.  But then 
I never really tried it!  *ducks*

That did it, I added in one line to the Server.pm and now everything works like a dream.

That's how PKI works. The encryption key is the pubic key. The decrypt
key is the private one. so set the values for the interchange user pub
key in the field (and have the IC user $HOME/.gnupg setup correctly with
the pub key you want on the key ring) and it works.

Subject: [ic] loop search empty parameter problem
Message-ID: <MDBBLAHPINLAMCOFBHNLOEPHDNAA.listbox@email.com>

The following code seems to ignore the first set of parameters which should
cause only the records with a blank value for the user_id field to be
returned.

[loop
search="ml=100000/fi=ebay_sold/st=db/co=1/sf=user_id/se=/op=eq/nu=0/sf=sku/s
e=sku-99/op=eq/nu=0"]
[loop-data ebay_sold code]
[/loop]

If se= is changed to something like se=test then no records are returned as
there are no user_id fields with a value of "test".  There are also no
records with a blank value for the user_id field, so why does
sf=user_id/se=/op=eq/nu=0 return records?

I'm using 4.9.3.

Are you positive that the hardware shop data you see is not the
foundation demo stuff that ships with IC? There is a lot of it in nearly
every table.

All the responses I have received to this post have been helpful. I
placed a request through Authorize.net for the perpetrators ip address
and am waiting for a response.

In general, is there a way to have a session timeout placed on the
interchange shopping cart, and after so many attempts to checkout the
session will expire?

Thanks

Easily. Depending on where your [charge ...] is happening, do something
like this (untested):

    [calc]
            my $filename = "tmp/charge_failed/$Session->{ohost}";
            my $past = $Tag->counter({ file=> $fn, value => 1});
            return unless $past > 3;
            die errmsg(
                            "Real-time charge failed. Reason: %s\n",
                            'too many failed charge attempts',
                    );
    [/calc]
        
    [tmp name="charge_succeed"][charge route="[var MV_PAYMENT_MODE]"][/tmp]

    [if scratch charge_succeed]
    [then]
        [set do_invoice]1[/set]
        [set do_payment]1[/set]
        Real-time charge succeeded. ID=[data session payment_id] amount=[scratch tmp_remaining]
    [/then]
    [else]
        Real-time charge FAILED. Reason: [data session cybercash_error]
        Failed charge count: [counter file="tmp/charge_failed/[data session ohost]"]
        [calc]
                my $count = $Tag->{
                die errmsg(
                                "Real-time charge failed. Reason: %s\n",
                                errmsg($Session->{cybercash_error}),
                        );
        [/calc]
    [/else]
    [/if]

Subject: [ic] Interchange and sendmail
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.58L0.0312042024480.31515@www.linux2go.org>

Perhaps someone can enlighten me.  I'm running interchange 4.9.9 on an AMD 
opteron using Gentoo Linux.  The system is running Apache/2.0.48 
(Gentoo/Linux) mod_perl/1.99_10 Perl/v5.8.2 mod_ssl/2.0.48 OpenSSL/0.9.7c.  
Due to some problems compiling sendmail in pure 64bit mode (I have no 32 
bit libs on this system), I'm using ssmtp instead of sendmail.  

/usr/lib/sendmail and /usr/sbin/sendmail is smybolically linked to 
/usr/sbin/ssmtp.  Now here's where it gets interesting.  When the customer 
places an order, the order copy gets sent to the customer as expected but 
the encrypted copy of the order appears in the interchange error log with 
the following message:
66.92.11.157 rDMWEXi2:66.93.10.157 - [04/December/2003:17:42:05 -0500] 
cart /cgi-bin/cart/process.html Unable to send mail using 
/usr/sbin/sendmail
> To: webuser
> Subject: ORDER 0014
> Reply-To: doug1@linux2go.org
>
>....rest of encrypted e-mail.

Now before I go do something silly that I'll reget in the future (such as 
parsing the error log for e-mail and re-sending it), are there any hard 
dependency requirements that require sendmail?  I find it interesting that 
interchange has no problems using ssmtp to send the customer copy but 
obviously does something different for encrypted version.

Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Bruce

Hi --

I just inherited an interchange based app that now needs to use
CyberSource, but there is no Payment/CyberSource.pm module!

Google and a grep through the list archives show that the question has
come up a couple of times, but with no replies.  I am willing to write
one, but need to be sure that the problem has not already been solved
before I do so.

So, is there a Payment::CyberSource module lurking
about somewhere?

The one uses the [email ...] tag, the other the old
Vend::Util::send_mail. I have never heard of IC having problems, and it
has used a lot of mailers. My guess is there is some problem in ssmtp
with the -t option. Did you look in /var/log/maillog? There should
be something there.

I would switch to Net::SMTP or fake the order report with [email ...] --
I wouldn't parse logs. 8-)

Mike,
It turns out the -t option is not supported in ssmtp.  I'll use Net::SMTP 
instead.  Thanks for the info.

It could use Netpbm utilities to resize an image when it is upoaded.   
I've done that in the custom shopping carts I've written.  I think 
thumbnails are best as jpegs as most people have truecolor displays (as 
opposed to 256 colors). 
The code I have converts to 'pnm', calls pnmscale, and then calls 
ppmtojpeg (for example).  If I had more time I would undertake this.  If 
anyone has any questions feel free to contact me.

Tom,

Interchange has a feature to resize images.

Have a look at the [image] tag.

Example:
[image src="os28004.gif" imagesubdir="items" makesize="50x50"]


Good luck !


Best regards,

Ton

You can do this quite easily with Image::Magick, which, of course,
requires the C ImageMagick libraries to be installed also. We use it at
palmdigitalmedia.com for book cover images.

use Image::Magick;
p = new Image::Magick;
p->Read("imagefile");
#You can specify one or both of height and width. 
p->Scale(height => $thumbnail_height);
p->Write("thumbnail-imagefile");

modulo error checking and sizing policies.

I'd like to use Image::Magick to resize, unsharp mask, and possibly overlay
a semi-transparent logo.  Do you use the unsharp mask function at all?

No I haven't. I have only used it to resize images, change image
formats, and create text in images. http://www.imagemagick.org/ has a
lot of information, some of which will probably have your answer.

We're changing the way we update our products database. The old way was 
to upload a new products.txt and remove products.sql. The new way we're 
trying is using MyODBC to do updates on the products database directly. 
This is really helpful for us since we are syncing Interchange with a 
point-of-sale system, and updates are a lot smaller than sending the 
whole file each night.

I'm wondering if there could be any problems with using this method. 
Say the update fails halfway, is products going to be ruined?

Anyone have experience with this?

Hello all,

For several months now I've been running (quite successfully) an IC 4.9.8
catalog on a dedicated server (with virtual hosting of several other
domains as well). Now I want to set up a catalog for one of the other
domains but no matter how I configure things I can't get the second catalog
to run on the second domain - whenever I go to the customer entrance I get
an internal server error. Additionally, IC is running as the user
[firstuser] which is the user that is associated with [firstdomain.com].
The user [firstuser] and [seconduser] are both in the same group and I've
tried running makecat as both users with the same results. In other words:

http://www.[firstdomain.com]/cgi-bin/[firstcatalog]/index.html
The above works fine and has been working fine ever since the initial
catalog creation

http://www.[seconddomain.com]/cgi-bin/[secondcatalog]/index.html
This results in an internal server error with no errors in either the
interchange or catalog error logs.

However, if I instead run makecat and set the cgi directory to that of
[firstuser] it works fine.
Example: http://www.[firstdomain.com]/cgi-bin/[secondcatalog]/index.html

At first I assumed that this was a permissions issue and thus I used in the
[seconddomain] home directory:
chown -R [firstuser] catalogs/[secondcatalog]
chown -R [firstuser] cgi-bin

At his point I'm stumped since all of the catalog files are owned by the
user [firstuser] as is the cgi script. Running both catalogs from
[firstdomain.com] is not an option and I know other people have gotten this
working. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find anything in the
archives that has worked.

I would certainly appreciate any help anybody could provide. Let me know if
I need to provide any more information (like a log of my answers to makecat).

Simply populate the shipmode column with valid choices for each state, then 
modify the shipping selector code in include/checkout/shipping_address:

          <SELECT NAME=mv_shipmode>
           [shipping
             label=1
             mode=|[data table=state key='[default state A_STATE_CODE]' 
col=shipmodes]|
           ]
           </SELECT>

A_STATE_CODE could be your state of origin or just about any other state 
that makes sense as a starting point, until they specify theirs.

I've had one or two clients do this and they never reported a problem with 
it. If you enable logging in the MyODBC control panel, you'll see that is 
it simply issuing SQL statements to your server, and I would assume there 
is ak-start-end-ak stuff around each one, so I think your are pretty well 
covered as far as individual records go - but that is not from first-hand 
experience.

Actually, in Interchange 5.0 you can get it automatically via:

	[shipping widget=select]

That will give you the shipping modes valid for the current
shopping cart and values. In other words, you have to have 
a state and country to get the modes; you have to have a ZIP
if by UPS, and if the criteria is weight you must have that
as well.

You can see the effect of some of these in the "mike" demo.

If you want all *possible* shipmodes for the country/state,
regardless of cart contents or zip, use:

	[shipping possible=1]

That will give you a space-separated list of modes you
can loop over:

    Select your default shipping mode:
	<select name=mv_shipmode>
	[loop list="[shipping possible=1]"]
	  <option value="[loop-code]"> [shipping-desc mode="[loop-code]"]
	[/loop]
	</select>

Message-ID: <1070742530.1170.27.camel@starfire>

CVS version 5.0 of IC
Perl 5.8.1
Mikes demo store

I am working with this product as a test located at

http://www.blossomland.com/none-100.html

It has two options, if you make changes from the default the product is
correctly set and all is fine.

Notice the product selections are not the chosen selections in the cart.

There are a few things that you can do to produce the same results.

	1. Do a recalculate on the product and it will naturally put the 	items
that are showing in the selections in the cart. 
	2. Checkout will looking at your cart (this is no different than
	posting to the form in recalc.

I seem to notice the demo store is not afflicted with this problem. But
the code for the basket and options seem to be the exact same from what
I am doing.

Could someone point me what makes the outputs selections work different
The below is what I believe to be the portions that support the options
output

  [table-organize cols=4 table=' ' font="size=1" pretty=1]
            [item-options td=1 label=1 bold=1 price=1]
   [/table-organize]

With this being true basically the data is output using code from the
options module within IC.

TIA

A supplier provided me with a product database in csv format. I can 
import it into Excel or Access and it is formatted ok. But the

are) which show up as squares. These are causing problems when I try to 
export to a text file. How can I remove these pesky critters? I've tried 
many things such as fromdos in linux but can't quite get what I want. 
Any hints? magic perl snippets?

Backup FILE first, and then run:

perl -i -pe 's/\r//g' FILE

This will remove all carriage returns from the file.

If I remember correctly the call to record_exists() has been introduced
because field() fails for GDBM databases on non-existant records.

Many thanks for your analysis/patches, I'll look in detail at it
after the release of 5.0.

We could pretty easily move that to Vend::Table::Common or
Vend::Table::GDBM. We would of course have to analyze the 
effect on DBI mostly, but also DB_File, SDBM, and LDAP.

Hi,

I'm having problems using the encrypt tag to protect data using GPG using a
custom order route.  The output log says: -

Card no: <b>Encrypt failed:</b><br>gpg: Warning: using insecure memory!
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: processing message failed: eof

GPG works absolutely fine with normal orders but fails when called from this
custom order route.  Can anyone shed any light on this?  I believe that Ed
LaFrance was the author of this particular tag and there was only one match
when searching using Swish or Google.

Regards, Ade.

Adrian -

Yes, I wrote it a long time ago (4.6 branch, I think) as a quick kludge to 
get arbitrary encryption of any text within interchange. I really would not 
be surprised if it has issues now, as I have not maintained it to keep up 
with advances in the gpg code and/or interchange. Perhaps this coming week 
I can look at it.

Here's my warning: all user input is bad.  I've had problems trying to
facilitate that catalog owner uploading new data because he has a hard
time exporting the .txt files correctly (wrong column names, invalid
data types, DOS carriage returns, etc.)  I don't know what your setup
is; however, I strongly encourage you to validate the data as it comes
in.

Could someone tell me how to put options in a specific order? I have some
products that have 4 separate options and when I enter them they show up in
a random order like;
Color
1 year warranty
Optional color
Size

I need them to show up in a specific order;
Color
Optional Color
Size 
1 Year Warranty.

This doesn't seem like it should be too hard, and definitely seems like
something that the cart should be able to do, but I've looked through the
docs and asked this on this list before and got not answers.

I'm on 4.9.8, MySQL, using the "options" table.

Last time I checked options in the foundation Demo (yesterday) I noticed 
that there is an o_sort field in options.txt. If you increment this for 
your several options you will find that the smallest number will be 
displayed first. As for the UI I am not sure how,

I've looked thru the list (well, as much as I have archived) and I
have not found an answer to the question........

Let's say I'm selling shirts which come in multiple sizes, and I want to
run a special on extra-large shirts only. How would I go about doing
this with the discount tag?

I can discount the sku, but how do I check if that particular option is
selected?


Thanks.

Subject: [ic] Search by category not working in localized foundation catalog
Message-ID: <20031208105904.GC1948@worxpace>

When using the foundation catalog of IC 4.9.9 I stumbled across the
following problem:

When searching by category (i.e. using the category menu) no results are
shown when using a non-default locale. Reason is the following:

The category menu uses the selector field of the products table. Since
this field is not localized the generated one-click searches contain the
english category names
(/scan/st=db/co=yes/sf=category/se=Putty%20Knives/op=eq).  When
executing the search Vend::Table::Shadow is used to query the database
(select * from products  WHERE inactive != 1 AND category = 'Putty
Knives') since a database mapping has been configured for table
products. each_nokey() of Vend::Table::Shadow returns the mapped result,
so that the result contains the non-english category name. This result
is then passed to the limiting function (returned by
Vend::Search::get_limit()) which checks if the category name returned by
the query matches the search spec submitted with the search ("Putty
Knives" in this case). But since the returned result contains
non-english category names it doesn't match the search term and
therefore the result is discarded.

To work around the problem I tried to localize the selector field, which
correctly generates searches with localized category names, but it still
fails since the field name given in the selector field is assumed to be
a field of table products and the database mapping isn't applied since
the field name is used in the where clause of the database query
(select * from products  WHERE inactive != 1 AND category = 'Spachtel').
The result is the english category field being searched for a non-english
category name. To fix this Vend::Table::Shadow::each_nokey() would not
only have to apply the database mapping to the result of a query, but
also to the query itself.

To really work around the problem I had to put a localized category
field and a localized selector field (containing something like
"category_de_DE=Spachtel") into the products table and additionally a
localized selector field into the cat table or rather the shadow table
thereof.

There must be a better way to fix this. Any ideas?

You didn't mention what your error logs say.

I'm running multiple catalogs on one IC, but all under one user. You 
could install 4.9.9 to run as one user, and use the test variable as 
mentioned in the UPGRADE file to test your catalogs. Maybe that would 
work.

Thanks Ed and Doug. Sounds pretty safe, but I will be backing up the 
database, just in case. :)

Ed, with your clients doing this, do you export products to the text 
file at all? (Admin -> Tables -> Export) I did this to start out with, 
and it generates the files for my indices as well. I'm just wondering 
if this is something I should do regularly. (Maybe those are only for 
file-based searches?)

Hi,

I need to display a value directly relevant to which price I am displaying
per user logged in.
I posted last week but got no replies.
Can this be achieved using CommonAdjust?
Can someone please drop me a mail and this is mega urgent!!!

Thank you in advance

Subject: [ic] Bundling and quantity discounts with matrix options
Message-ID: <3FD4894D.6070704@versado.net>

Hi all,

One of my customers wants to do 3 for the price of 2 type offers on some 
of their products. No problem I say, we can use quantity discounting: 
set the base price to ?10/item, set q3 to ?6.666/item, and hey presto 2 
widgets cost ?20 and 3 widgets cost ?20 as well!

The problem is, it doesn't work when you take matrix options into 
account: 3 red widgets cost ?20, but 1 red widget and 2 green widgets 
cost ?30 (different skus).

Can anyone suggest a solution? I'm thinking that some kind of product 
bundling mechanism is required (which is also on my customer's wish 
list), but I'm not sure how to tackle it at the moment.

I believe at one time I verified that you could set a negative cost (i.e.: 
-$2.00 for extra-small) for an option. It's been a long time, but it would 
be worth a try...

In the normal course of events, there is very little reason to export your 
tables to text files unless you have something specific that you need to do 
with them (or, as you said, you are doing text-based searches on them, 
though most SQL dbms can get you equivalent or better performance than that 
technique).

I guess I should have specified that I was running 4.8.7. The trick 
wasn't working so I upgraded to the latest 4.9.9 all was fine until I 
try putting in the code above. The shipping method menu ends up empty 
and this is in the error file:

I did say that there was nothing in the catalog error log and nothing in
the IC (system) error log. I also checked my Apache error log and as
predicted the error there was too generic to be helpful:

Premature end of script headers:
/home/httpd/vhosts/[seconddomain.com]/cgi-bin/[secondcatalog]

I've read through the release notes for 4.9.9 and it doesn't look like the
way the catalogs are configured or "run" is any different than in 4.9.8.
I'd rather not go through the upgrade process until 5.0 is released since I
have one currently running catalog. If I'm wrong about this I'm sure Mike
or one of the other IC gurus around here can correct me. 

I know that other people have gotten multiple catalogs each to run on their
own domain and I'd like to figure out what I'm doing wrong. I know I'm
close - I just don't know which direction to go in (it's like knowing the
grocery store is only 1 mile away, but not knowing which direction to
drive). If anybody can help me out with this I'd appreciate it - the
catalog is ready to launch except for this.

Hi,

I need to edit the template for the admin interface in 4.8. I can't find it
anywhere. The problem is the links now broken because they point to redhat

Subject: [ic] Assigning Absolute Price based on an Item Attribute
Message-ID: <3FD4F16D.7020007@stuckinrealtime.us>

I've been playing around with my pricing database trying to get
interchange to assign a price based on an item attribute like size or color

The docs say you can prefix the amount in your pricing database with an
= sign, and that should be the price assigned to the item...

i.e.


code    S       M       L       XL
99-102  =9.00   =10     =10     =11

When I try this the adjustment for the accessory comes back as being 0 
or blank.

Can you still assign a price based on an accessory?

I'm using interchange 4.9.9

my common adjust string is:

CommonAdjust  pricing:q2,q3,q4,q5:, ;products:price, ==supply:pricing: 
;$, ==:options


Thanks in advance,

Sounds like you need to use price groups. There's a field for this when 
you edit pricing in the UI, but I had to edit pricing.txt to get mine 
to work properly.

Yeah, I saw that too and tried it but it does not work? It had no effect at
all. Any body else know why this may be? I wouldn't think this would be such

Shawn,

Thanks for the tip - in searching through mailing lists I hadn't found 
this.

However, I'm still having the problems as before - my first existing 
catalog continues to run fine as do any other catalogs I run on domain1. 
I still get an internal server error when trying to access any pages on 
a catalog on domain2.

Is there anything else I've overlooked? I'd be happy to provide "ls -l" 
output to show permissions on any directories if that would help (or any 
other output, like my makecat answers - I just don't want to flood the 
list with too much superfulous information).

Thanks,
-Rick

Hi
When numbering use this format on o_sort and remember to restart.

02

I tried that but still no go. It has no effect. Is this working for other

Rick,

You might want to make sure you have a tmp directory under the catalog 
and that you have a directory for your session cache for the second catalog.

Also make sure that the permisions on your interchange socket allow the 
second catalog to write to the socket. On some systems with plesk I've 
had to set the permissions to 0666 using the following in the 
interchange.cfg

SocketPerms 0666

This should work..
Specify "price_group" field per item/SKU , than be shore, that the 
CommonAdjust in etc/after.cfg look similar to this: 
pricing:price_group,q2,q3,q5,q10,q100:, ;:sale_price, ;:price, ;$, ==:options

Check whether displaying of [price code=[loop-code] quantity=[part-code]] 
appear properly in quantity.hrml (demo catalog)

Ed, here is my post from last week:

Hi,
 
I have to configure CommonAdjust to enable me to do the following.
I have 2 price's, one for accounts customers (PLOF) and one for non account
customers (contract).
Alongside this I have 2 set's of percentage calculations which I need to
display alongside the prices when the items are displayed. These percentage
values are static, so no actual calculations take place in Interchange.
I need to display the 2 relevant values when either a PLOF customer or a
Contract customer logs in.
i.e
 
plofprice  |  contractprice  |  plofpercentageoff  |  contractpercentageoff
 
  6.81               5.84              58                       64 
 
So if a Contract customer logs in, they see:
 
?5.84 with 64% off
 
And likewise for a PLOF Customer:
 
?6.81 with 58% off
 
I know CommonAdjust can do this, but the documentation is thoroughly
confusing. I have everything else running fine, but this is a new
requirements. I am NOT using the pricing tables either and I am using the
default after.cfg.
 
Thanks, Jon

I've tried the "Live Demo" dev store and this fix appears to do nothing 
for the matrix options.  The code itself doesn't appear to do anything 
along those lines either.

Are there any plans on implementing a functional matrix option inventory 
control or should I just write the patch myself?

You could probably modify the 'dealer' pricing that is already part of the 
foundation demo to do this. There are retail and wholesale (dealer) price 
fields in the products table which should also appear in the item editor, 
and a dealer flag which can be set for a customer account. When a person 
with dealer=TRUE logs into the store, they get the wholesale price 
(configured in etc/after.cfg with pricing profiles).

If these are static values, then you just need to add plofpercentageoff and 
contractpercentageoff fields to your products table (or a new table keyed 
to products by sku if you prefer) and display them as needed.

Subject: [ic] Interchange fails after second session with Japaneese locale
Message-ID: <200312091512.23904.cwenham@synesmedia.com>


 Interchange 4.9.8 on FreeBSD 4.6 with MySQL database is failing only on the 
second or third user session when using a Japanese locale for the front-end 
(store, not Admin UI).

 Interchange keeps working fine, with Japaneese translations, for the first 
session. However, if you open up another browser and visit the same site you 
get an Internal Server Error, and the error.log reports this:

nyn /nyn.cgi/index.html Runtime error: ?it@C not a database, cannot use as 
products file

 Even as the second visitor is getting only Internal Server Errors, the first 
visitor can still be browsing. If the first visitor closes his browser and 
then re-starts it, he'll start getting the same errors, too.

 Restarting Interchange has no effect and neither does deleting the .gdbm file 
or the contents of the session and tmp directories. The only way to briefly 
"reset" the catalog is to temporarily switch to en_US and back, like this:
 
 1) Restore the original locale.txt
 2) Change the locale in variables.txt back to en_US
 3) Delete locale.gdbm and variables.gdbm
 3) Restart the server and check the English version.
 4) Replace locale.txt with the Japaneese version, change LOCALE back to 
ja_JP.
 5) Restart and check in browser. First session works fine, second session 
fails again.

 There are three other English-language catalogs running on the same 
Interchange daemon installation, and they're unaffected, they don't even fail 
down when the Japaneese catalog does.

 I've tried putting the locale table into a MySQL database instead of gdbm, 
but this doesn't change the odd behavior.

 Does anyone know why Interchange might fail for subsequent sessions after the 
first, but in such a way that the first session can continue to work for as 
long as its still valid, _AND_ that the only way to reset the catalog is to

You've translated the ProductFiles directive to Japanese. Make sure the 
ProductFiles row in the locale table is empty (except for the key, of 
course) and restart IC. While you are in there, check for any other 
directives which should not be translated.

Are you running in PreFork mode? Sounds like a POSIX::setlocale() is sticking
somehow.

Shawn,

Thanks again for the tips. I do in fact have a tmp directory and a session
cache directory both under the catalog I'm trying to get going (as well as
the one I have running successfully). I did add the socket permissions line
to interchange.cfg, but that didn't seem to make any difference.

Other information that I've uncovered in looking around that may be useful:

I am in fact running plesk on my system - I found detailed instructions on
Interchangeville for running IC on a plesk system:
http://interchangeville.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=952

The main thing that is different is I wasn't running in INET mode - I was
running in UNIX mode. I tried running makecat as described in the message
using INET mode, but that doesn't make any difference (I still get an
internal server error when I try to go to the catalog). However, here is
where it gets interesting - I have been running IC in UNIX mode for
catalog1 on domain1 and I can run as many catalogs on domain1 as I want
(while using UNIX mode). If I switch to INET mode then try to go to the
catalogs the message I get for all domain1 catalogs is that the IC server
is unavailable, but for catalog2 on domain2 I continue to get an internal
server error.

The other difference that I see is that the user interchange is running as
isn't "interch" but rather the user for domain1. Since the user for domain1
and domain2 are both a member of the "psacln" group I didn't think it
necessary to run as "interch". However, the one difference I can think of
is that "interch", as described in the Interchangeville post, would be a
full shell account, but the account for domain1 is a plesk virtual host
account - could this cause the problems I'm seeing? It seems unlikely to me
since I did go ahead and create an "interch" user account and followed the
directions there to a "t" and I continue to get the same behavior from IC
(internal server error for catalog2 running on domain2).

I appreciate your help so far, Shawn, but do you, or anybody else, have any
other suggestions?

-Rick

Rick,

I was never able to get those instructions to work properly on all of my 
domains.

I eventually switched to mod_interchange as the way to talk to my 
catalogs because the cgi's would not run consistently because of the 
suexec thing that plesk uses.

I also had some success using mod_perl to run tlink.pl under different 
domains.

One way I can think of is to calculate shipping by weight, then assign a 
weight of zero to that one item. You could assign the weights of all 
other items to be the same as the price and then not display the wieght 
(which would obviously not reflect actual weights). Maybe not a perfect 
solution but it should work...

I'm doing free shipping on one item by checking for that item on the 
checkout page, and if ordered, erasing the shipping, but only if they 
haven't selected a faster shipping method (my default is 'flat'). It's 
pretty limited, but here's the code:

[if ordered 1003227]
[and value mv_shipmode eq "flat"]
   [assign shipping=0.00]
[else]
   [assign clear=1]
[/else]
[/if]

Subject: [ic] Question about Interchange's capabilities
Message-ID: <3FD71F8A.2060304@bluecomconsulting.com.au>

Hi all, I've been using AgoraCart but seem to have hit a problem with 
what I want to do, so I'm looking at trying out Interchange, but need to 
  know if it will fit my needs first. I have mobile phones for sale, and 
the user can buy phones on plans with no upfront cost, so the base price 
of the phone is $0, and cost is added on through options on the product. 
My required features are;

1) At the shopping cart view and the checkout view I want to have two 
colums instead of total cost;

* Monthly Bill
* Upfront Cost

These two colums would have their values selected via drop down boxes on 
the product. So on one box they pick which phone plan (affecting the 
monthly bill) and the other box they pick either monthly payment (adding 
to monthly bill) or outright purchase (adding to upfront cost, which is 
intially $0). Ideally I'd like to also have checkbox option so they can 
request a gold number, adding $200 to the upfront cost.


2) Be able to customise the checkout order form to either;
a. add a lot of fields and use error checking on the fields (some fields 
are only required if another field is selected etc), or
b. Let me insert my own html forms that appear after the checkout is 
submitted, to gather extra info.


Sorry for the lengthy post, but I really wanted to make sure that this 
can be done before I install the cart. Thanks,

Dave.

Please CC me as this email is not on this list -- thanks.

Hi,

I'm trying to set the environment variable for GNUPGHOME, and so far 
I've had no luck.  This is what I've done.

- added 'SetEnv GNUPGHOME path_to_catalog/.gnupg' to Apache (virtualhost)
- patched suexec to allow GNUPGHOME to pass (just in case)
- wrote a test script and I can see GNUPGHOME from %ENV
- added GNUPGHOME to Environment in my ic.cfg
- can see GNUPGHOME in admin/genconfig too

After doing all this, it still does not come up in admin/env_vars.html 
for my session.

Any ideas?

If you need to set GNUPGHOME so Interchange has the correct location
for GPG keys, I suggest to set it in the init script for Interchange:

export GNUPGHOME=/your/gnupg/path/.gnupg

Dear Rick -

I run interchange on Plesk-managed systems. Try disabling suexec, which is 
by default used by Plesk. Just located the binary 'suexec' (depending on 
which Plesk dist you use, location can vary), and rename it to 
suexec.disabled. Then restart apache, and check your catalog again. If you 
still get a 500 error, try toggling the suid bit on the vlink file for the 
catalog.

Let me tell you, you give me Interchange and a MYSQL database and I can do 
anthing a man can do with a program, I mean you can do with interchange 
anything, the limit is the sky, however interchange is not easy, you must work 
on it and know what you doing.
Good luck

Dave -

All this and more is doable with interchange, and the built-in features of 
the foundation store demo will get you quite a ways along, but you will 
have to roll up your sleeves and do some work. Most people find the 
learning curve for customizing interchange projects to be fairly steep, so 
you might consider securing one of the competent consultants on this list 
for the rough spots.

Ed & Shawn,

Thanks for your help. I disabled suexec as Ed suggested and everything is
working beautifully. I'm curious though, everything I've read about Plesk
and IC states/implies that suexec is required - why the misconception?

Thanks again, I'll be launching this afternoon.

Hi,

I am in the process of investigating Interchange for by clients. So far, 
the process has gone relatively smoothly but I have encountered a 
problem updating the status on a pending order. Specifically, the action 
is denied and I am redirected to the admin login page. The error logs 
indicate that I have "attempted database update without permission, 
table=transactions".

I am running an "out of the box" install using the default "foundation" 
store and DBM files.

I have checked the actual file system permissions and they are fine. I 
have poked around the icdevgroup site and google and the last ~3 months 
list archives but have been unable to find anything that might help 
explain what's going on.

When the program is complaining about permissions, is it complaining 
about file-system permissions or it's own internal table of allowable 
actions for a user? (I am logged in a the site admin/super user.)

Pointers or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks,

You can get it working with suexec enabled, but it takes quite a bit of 
fiddling with vlink ownerships, group affiliations and socket perms to get 
it right. Disabling suexec is just another (possibly less desireable) way 
to get there.

That message would suggest a problem with logical permissions within the 
UI, not file system permissions.

Also, if you are using DBM you are set up for problems. We now 
require SQL for catalogs if you are going to use the Admin UI.

Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.58.0312110321190.28289@louche.swelter.net>

Fellow Interchange users,

Interchange 5.0 is close at hand. The second release candidate is now 
available, and we ask you to please take a few minutes to test this so 
that the 5.0 final release will be as bug-free as possible.

The tarball and RPMs are here:

http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0-rc2/

Please read the read-me-rpm file before downloading any RPMs. Due to
vendors shipping threaded Perls, it's a little more complicated now to use
the RPMs. You can always build your own with the src RPM, of course. The
read-me-rpm file explains things.

Debian packages are here:

http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/debian/5.0.0-rc2/

We'd like to get any test reports back by Thursday night or Friday morning 
if possible, in anticipation of a Monday release.

Thanks,
Jon

Just install the new release in an other directory, and run it from there.
When you create a new catalog with the release candidate, then make sure
that you don't replace your other installations by e.g. using same name for
catalog.

Hi all,
I have been trying to get protx set up and configured with our 
customised version of interchange.
Currently, I am at the stage of working out what everything does, and 
trying to get a transaction completed through the protx vsp test server.

One of the major things I am unclear about is authentication.  I have 
read the Protx site and module documentation over and over and over, but 
nothing is mentioned about this.
I assume due to the requirement of the SSL module, it uses this in some 
shape or form.

I have orders going into the transaction table ok, and the following 
relevant lines in my catalog.cfg file:

Route protx <<EOR
    id   our_id
    host   the_protx_host.co.uk
    attach   1
    report   etc/report
    currency   GBP
    txtype   PAYMENT
EOR

Route default cascade "newmain sales_log new_sales_log copy_user log protx"


I also have the correct 'Require module' line at the top of the file, 
and have totally culled the admin stuff from interchange.
Any hints on starting the transaction process would be greatly 
appreciated :-)

Cheers.

Sandy Thomson.

Protx authenticate you by your IP address, plus user id.

Starting with basics: the 'require' line is in interchange.cfg (not catalog.cfg), 
MV_PAYMENT_MODE is set to Protx in variable.txt, and you did restart 
Interchange ("apply changes") after adding these?

Thanks all for the speedy responses. Sadly, I am unable to "fix" the
problem despite :

  * moving everything over to MySQL (...Using MySQL, DSN=...done.)

  * giving the user in question complete access over everything via the
    'Edit Permissions' UI interface - specifically : view, edit, create
    and delete (but not HIDE) permissions on all the tables listed. (I
    made sure to "apply changes".)

And yet when I try to change the status on an order, I get redirected to
the login page and Interchange has forgotten who I am.

Could it a cookie thing? I'm using Mozilla/Firebird set to alert me
whenever a new cookie is set and I'm not seeing anything. I tried to
gleen something by looking at the actual HTTP headers (included below)
but I didn't suggest an obvious solution to me.

Any suggestions on where to look next, or where to start adding
gratuitous "print STDERR" statements would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Using fairly vanilla IC 4.9.3
Static IP for single domain and SSL.

With the cart empty there doesn't appear to be any session issues.
With anything in the cart when the user goes to the checkout page
the browser lock icon appears and then quickly disappears.
Anyone else experienced that ?

Just installed 4.9.9 and Foundation on RH9.0.
Did a Makecat  to set up a new store which worked OK
for a few days and on day 3, I am unable to access the Admin

I can still access the new (Foundation) site but get a 404 error

Any thoughts for this problem?

Hi - i'm attempting to send a mail to us when a user accesses a 
particular page (the end of a sign up process (for a new feature on the 
site)) but, after much rummaging i've found that the [mail] tag does not 
seem to exist in ic 4.6.5. Unfortunately there is a good reason why i 
cannot upgrade (it is on my to do list though).

I can't find documentation on how to do this in earlier versions of 
interchange. Looking about the source has led me to believe i might be 
able to use Vend::Order::send_mail? Can anyone show me how i could do 
this? When i try calling it from a perl block i get Undefined subroutine 
in the error log.

Have you tried to use the email usertag from IC 4.8 ? This should work,
at least with some minor modifications.

actually - there appears to be an email usertag in 4.6.5 which i hadn't

It's almost working. But something appears to be stripping the domain 
part of the email address out. allmanj@houseofireland.com becomes 
allmanj.com. Any idea what's causing this and how to fix it?

Maybe one of the images or scripts on the page is called with a 
nonsecure URL? It is best to use relative links if you can. I'd have to 
see the page to really know.

Subject: [ic] Images and the Admin UI
Message-ID: <1071237115.15299.30.camel@starfire>

I am using 5.0 pre cvs 
Non-threaded perl 5.8.1

Here is my dilemma, we have a number of products that use the same
image.

Problem we have is in 4.9/5.0 the UI has changed in some way that allows
an upload of zero bit file essentially overwriting the original file or
zeroing out the file.

What we do to cause this is to upload the image into one item, then edit
additional items placing the same image name into the image of the other
products that use it. 

Is there some way to remedy this? It really would be nice to tell the UI
at least not to attempt an upload for the image and to use an existing
image. 

The only way I have been able to keep this from happening for our store
is to change the files ownership to root:root or something other than
the stores user.

I know that I can change the UI in some way to work like the UI did in
the 4.6 era for our system alone, but I don't think I am the only one
that would run into this same difficulty.

The function something like selecting 

use existing image: yes no

if yes offer image choices from the server or input filename, if not
that at least allow entering a filename that would not place a post into
the request.

if no allow upload choices

This would then help to get rid of that empty post that occurs when
changing the image name, as long as the person who edits the product
remembers to choose the correct option.

Thanks and any suggestions are welcome.

Dear Philip,

As you probably know, one can do almost anything with Interchange.

You can achieve what you want by the following:

1. Click the meta link aof the image field
2. Go to tab 'Advanced'
3. Add /* to the path in the 'Directory' field (e.g. change images/items to 
images/items/*)
4. Click OK

Now you will have a pull down box containing the existing
images show up on your form.

Good luck !


Best regards,

Ton

Hi All

Just wondering if anyone would know why Mike's demo (5) Product Tree
wouldn't show on early MS IE 5.0 (40 bit).

Is ok in IE 6.

URL is www.itdownunder.com.au

This was not in SSL either.

Is it a style sheet issue?

I was looking at building a new site based on this demo (my foundation sites
a working ok).

Very good DB !!   I had trouble some time back with button tag images
and did something so the button tag could find the image. Otherwise
it would always default to the specified text. So when I removed the
src= line the problem seems solved. One other interesting part I noticed
this morning is that the losing of the security indicator was not a problem

with NetScape only IE.

Now I need to figure out why the button tag can't find my images.

Again though... that bit of information you provided sent me right to the
problem !!

Thank again !!!!

Jon

But to  do this in every store I work with or put up is a pain in the
rear. The point I wanted to make is that I believe I am not the only one
to have seen this happen and or try doing what I have done. 

The present functionality of the product images upload is just that, an
upload function and does not allow you to modify without upload.

Subject: [ic] Errors when trying to use state for shipping selection
Message-ID: <p06002016bbff9182f8e7@[192.168.0.154]>

I'm running into some errors when I try to restrict different 
shipping modes based on the sate. I have the different shipping modes 
in the shipmode column in the state table using spaces to separate 
them, just like you do in the country table. The error I'm getting 
looks like this:

Runtime error: Can't locate object method "single" via package 
"Vend::Table::GDBM" (perhaps you forgot to load "Vend::Table::GDBM"?) 
at /home/inkjet/interchange/lib/Vend/Ship.pm line 429.

and the code for the shipping selection looks like this:

          <SELECT NAME=mv_shipmode>
           [shipping
             label=1
             mode=|[data table=state key='[default state UT]' col=shipmodes]|
           ]
           </SELECT>

although I have also tried:

	<select name=mv_shipmode>
	[loop list="[shipping possible=1]"]
	  <option value="[loop-code]"> [shipping-desc mode="[loop-code]"]
	[/loop]
	</select>

I started out on IC 4.8.7, tried it on 4.9.9 and my current test 
server is running 5.0.0 RC2 just for kicks and giggles. I even 
grabbed the current Bundle:Interchange and the kitchensink just in 
case.

Has anyone out there been able to get this working or is it just a 
broken feature that isn't ready for use yet?

MSIE 5.0's CSS is not up to snuff, and I guess our default browser
recognition string thinks it is.

If you set this in the catalog.cfg:

    Variable MV_DHTML_BROWSER MSIE\s+5.5.*Windows|MSIE\s+[67]\.|Gecko

it should send those to the old tree.

Subject: [ic] item image upload fails (msie) on two machines
Message-ID: <3FD9EB58.6040506@goldissue.com>

Hi,

I have a customer who is having trouble uploading images (items) through 
the user interface (win 98 msie).

On one occasion I was with him, and images (jpegs) produced by photoshop 
would not upload, while images downloaded from images.google.com would 
upload.

Often an error would appear on the browser (page not found).

I have checked the apache logfile and no images have been posted by my 
client in 4 days, whereas he claims to have tried.

Also he has emailed me the pics which did not upload. I renamed them and 
uploaded them from linux ok.

Now he is having trouble uploading from msie win XP at home.

Anyone have any ideas?

You renamed them and they uploaded ok?
Maybe something like spaces in the file names?
The file upload facilities don't deal with that
too well. I've seen it cause problems before.

You want SQL tables to do this, I think. As the number of GDBM users
dwindles, things are not often fully tested using that table type.
Any tag which uses SQL queries (as that one does).

I think we have to start putting a "requires SQL" in some cases.

I have not seen evidence that renaming fixed the problem. Mozilla on 
Linux is OK but we had problems on two versions of msie. It is only on

This could have something to do with your Perl or database setup. Are you 
using the internal db or an external one (such as MySQL) for the state 
table (i.e. do you have state.sql or state.gdbm in your products/ dir)? Are 
you saying the shipping selector on the checkout page is empty? Does it 
work with the country table (which is the default setup)?

Well, you could set the mv_metadata for those product fields
in the template of course.

Then you need to use a different widget than the imagehelper widget.
The box you are typing into is not a text box, it is a file element.
It is designed to upload a file, not input text info into the database.

Using the GDBM. It works great with the country table. Looks like I'm 
going to try out using MySQL. I've been meaning to do that anyway for 
the possible performance gains, this should prove interesting.

In case I run into issues with MySQL (I have a text file uploaded 
every 6 hours that syncs inventory and prices to our on-site order 
database - I'm not sure how I'm going to do this with MySQL yet) is 
there a way to make this work with GDBM?

Subject: [ic] price based shipping charges with a different price field
	(bug?)
Message-ID: <NCBBKKCDKCGEGHHAACBIOELMPMAA.tech@khouse.org>

Hello,

IC 4.8.3.  I have a membership that is delinated by the field "user_active"
being non zero, non null.  In my catalog.cfg, I have this:

--------------------------
PriceField     CommonAdjust

CommonAdjust   pricing:price_group,q3,q4,q5,q10, ;products:price, ;$
AutoModifier   pricing:price_group
AutoModifier   products:gift_cert

NonTaxableField nontaxable

UserDB         default    scratch    user_active

Autoload <<EOR
[perl]
    if($Scratch->{user_active}) {
            $Config->{CommonAdjust} = ' pricing:price_group,q3,q4,q5,q10,
;products:member_price, ;$';
    }
[/perl]
EOR
--------------------------

This works perfectly for changing the price on the product page when called
by: [item-price], and in the basket all the way through checkout to receipt.

The problem comes in calculating shipping.  One of my shipping options is
free shipping for orders over $10.00

This is what is in my products/shipping.asc file.

--------------------------
free    Free Shipping - U.S.    price   0       9.99    e Please select
$10.00 or more of products to get Free Shipping.
{'PriceDivide' => "1",}
free    Free Shipping - U.S.    price   10    99999999        0.00
{'PriceDivide' => "1",}
--------------------------

This works perfectly with this code in the ord/checkout.html page:

--------------------------
<select name="mv_shipmode">
[loop option=mv_shipmode
list=|[data table=country key='[default ship_country US]' col=shipmodes]|
]
[perl interpolate=1]
$sub = [shipping mode=[loop-code] noformat=1] + 0;
$weight = "[scratch weight]";
$code = "[loop-code]";
[if value ship_state]
$state = "[value ship_state]";
[/if]
[if session ship_message]
$ship_message =  "[data session ship_message]";
[/if]
return '<option value="[loop-code]">[shipping-desc [loop-code]] [shipping
mode=[loop-code]]</option>' if (($sub > 0) || (($code eq 'download') &&
($weight == 0)) || (($code eq 'free') && ($ship_message !~ 'Please
select')));
[/perl]
[/loop]
</select>
--------------------------


The problem comes when I set the regular price of the item to $11, and the
member price to $9.  The system seems to be calculating the "price" for the
shipping from the price FIELD, instead of the [item-price].  For example, in
this situation, the non-member should get the product for $11, and have free
shipping.  The member should get it for $9, but have no free shipping.  This
isn't what happens.  Instead, they both get the product for the right price
($11, and $9 resepectively) but both get free shipping.

This seems to be something in the internal workings of IC that might be a
bug.  Shouldn't price based shipping charges be calculated on the modified
price that the customer is seeing?  Where would I go to track this down?

Thanks,

Russell Mann

I would like to have a way to override the update_user() call built into
form action 'set'. If I am using the table-editor to edit a table that
has some of the same column names as my userdb table I do not want my
values updated.  I could not find a way to do this with out the
following hack.

Won't the usual method work?

FormAction set <<EOR
sub {
	$Tag->update('values')
		unless $CGI->{mv_data_auto_number} || $CGI->{mv_no_update_user};
	$Tag->update('data');
	$Tag->update('values') if $CGI->{mv_data_auto_number};
	#Debug("In user form action");
	return 1;

Another thing which should work is adding

	hidden.mv_values_space=temporary

to the table-editor tag. That will make it send the values to a
different area of the session.

BTW, IC 4.9.3

A little more details...
It appears as if the check_alert_form section isn't functioning.
If I add the line with *** for the mv_nextpage variable then
it basically functions but of course no input verification
will function.

      <form action="[process-target]" method="POST">
        <input type="hidden" name="mv_todo" value="return">
        <input type="hidden" name="mv_check" value="check_alert_form">
        <input type="hidden" name="mv_nextpage"
value="stock-alert-added"> ********

[set check_alert_form]
[if !value email]
form_errors=We must have an email address in order to notify you.
mv_nextpage=@@MV_PAGE@@
[else]
mv_nextpage=stock-alert-added
[/else]
[/if]
[/set]

So your saying I am trying to use a hammer when I need a to use a
screwdriver?

Well I kinda thought so. But what can you do to prevent people from
doing just what they think makes sense to them?

If I can use only one widget for the image function, (or can I use two?
I guess I will find out) what options do I have?

This became obvious as being a problem to me, when on of my IC customers
came back to me on the same point as above. 
So I decided to asked others that I had seen using the same images for
multiple products and they told me, "It (using the upload function as a
dual function form) does not *work*, we have to upload the image each
time." 

The fact that people ere even attempting to enter data into the field
seems that there was or is some form of expectation that the field may
work as a data entry field as well.

I think than the only choices I have is to some way keep data from being
entered into the field freehand and just tell them to upload each image
at least the expectation will not be there.

Thanks all

Philip,

Have you tried my suggestion of changing the 'Directory' entry on
the 'Advanced' tab of the meta edit form as suggested in one of
my previous postings?

I use that solution frequently for my customers and it really works
like a charm.




Best regards,

Ton

Is this unusual?

I take it it's one of two cases:

1 - It's so obvious everyone is thinking "RTFM" shaking their heads at the 
impudence of my so obvious question. (In this case I'd love a "RTFM you 
sucker!" in response)

2 - It is so weird and unusual a situation nobody ever had the problem (other 
than the other guy who posted the same without reply) and nobody knows what 
to tell me, I'm F%^$% and better off scratching the whole thing and get into 
the goats marketing industry.

any clue anyone?

I'm sure this has something to do with my rewrites since if I remove the
mod_rewrite stuff everything works. I've looked at my rewrite log and
for sure it is getting rewritten with the cgi-bin stuff, but what is a bit
weird
is that the checkout page, which also uses process.html, seems to work
just fine.  Is there something special that has to be done with rewrites
to
properly access process.html ?  Or is there another approach I can take
to the stock-alert capability that will work with rewrites ?

In the foundation demo, the list of shipping methods presented to the 
customer is taken from one or more tables that contain regional data - 
country is the most common one. Edit the shipmodes column for the country 
records of concern to change the choices that are presented to the customer.

Depends on your version but check country.txt / country table and remove
any of the listed option you don't want for the country you are trying
to change the shipping methods for.

Is this unusual?

I take it it's one of two cases:

1 - It's so obvious everyone is thinking "RTFM" shaking their heads at
the 
impudence of my so obvious question. (In this case I'd love a "RTFM you 
sucker!" in response)

2 - It is so weird and unusual a situation nobody ever had the problem
(other 
than the other guy who posted the same without reply) and nobody knows
what 
to tell me, I'm F%^$% and better off scratching the whole thing and get
into 
the goats marketing industry.

any clue anyone? _______________________________________________

Thanks!!

For future reference:

Indeed it's in the country table, the "shipmodes" field takes comma separated 
values of available shipping options for the country (eg most of mine have 
XDM in there, US has "GNDRES,GNDCOM") the names can be found in the SHIPPING 
CONFIGURATION page.

Thank you, Now "all" I have left to do is go through it and edit them ALL :(

Subject: [ic] problem with images for buttons in account.html
Message-ID: <6.0.1.1.2.20031214232053.05b549e8@secure.vwe.net>

Hi Folks,

I'm working on account.html and am trying to use images in pace of the 
standard buttons as provided by the browser. I'm using IC 4.8.7 and Perl 
5.6.1 under Linux.

At the moment I have the "save account info" button as an image and the 
"save and checkout" button as a standard submit button using the following 
working code as found on the google archives:

<INPUT TYPE="image" VALUE="Save Acct. Info" 
src="__THEME_IMG_DIR__saveaccountinfo_button.gif" border=0 name="mv_click">

[if items]
   [set Save and Checkout]mv_nextpage=ord/checkout[/set]
&nbsp;<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Save and Checkout" NAME=mv_click>
[/if]

I've tried using the following code on the INPUT tag for the "save and 
checkout" button to use an image, but it doesn't work and I end up with a 
search results page when clicked. As a side issue the user data in the form 
isn't being saved either when the image is used.

[if items]
   [set Save and Checkout]mv_nextpage=ord/checkout[/set]
&nbsp;<INPUT TYPE=image VALUE="Save and Checkout" 
src="__THEME_IMG_DIR__checkout_button.gif" NAME=mv_click>
[/if]

I can't work out why this doesn't work, or why I end up on a search page. 
Does anyone have any ideas what I'm missing or of another way to achieve 
this? I've looked at using the [button][/button] IC tag, but all attempts 
with that have also failed.

Many thanks in advance

Mark

Hi all...

I am not Mr Database, so please excuse this question if it seems
trivial.
Interchange 4.8.7/MySQL 8.23/Apache 1.3.27

I run an aftermarket performance car parts webstore, and have something
on the order of 20 to 30,000 parts in my catalog.  Many of these parts
apply to only one automobile, while many others apply to many
automobiles.  I'd like to extend the database such that each part number
also has, say, 10 extra fields for specific car chassis codes.  Then I
can implement [somehow] a search routine where the user selects his
make, then model, and can pull up everything available for the car.  Or
conversely, a part can be selected, and in the description, all
applicable chassis codes will be shown.

Anyone have a suggestion how I can do this?

TIA,
Josh

I have and all I get is none as a drop down list, I checked logs and
nothing to show me why your proposal would not work. I tested it under a
demo store on the icdevgroup servers and it works. I see that this might
work similar to what I am trying to do.

I looked in my logs and see nothing as in errors.

Has your catalog a sym link 'images' to the images directory in html space?

If I were to do this, I would add one field called 'chassis_codes' to the 
products table, which would contain space-separated list of the all the 
codes that apply to the part. Then, your searches would be a simple matter 
using SQL:

         select * from products where chassis_codes like 'foo'

... for 'foo' you would reference the value which contains the determinate 
code (i.e. [value chassis_code] would reference an input named chassis_code 
from a form, etc.)

Listing all chassis_codes for a part is as simple as adding a loop to the 
flypage:

[if-item-field chassis_codes]
         <b>Fits these models:</b><br>
         [loop arg="[item-field chassis_codes]"]
                 &nbsp;&nbsp;[loop-code]<br>
         [/loop]
[/if-item-field]

I'm having difficulty with a store that does UPS lookups. For some 
reason when the lookup happens I get an internal server error (which is 
a premature end of script headers).

The interchange error log shows the following details:

Has anybody else experienced this problem? Is there an easy solution?

Thanks,

Hey all,

Ok this is probably a stupid question but what the hay!
I have developed a usertag called cal.tag. I have it in
with other user tags and call it with "[cal December 2003]"
It displays a month view calendar. 

Through the idea of expedite the process and possibly
optimizing
as well, what would be the best way to accomplish getting a 
delivery date field from the transaction table and inserting
it into
my user tag call? I am currently calling the tag from a
gutted-out version
of order.html, called delivery.html. eg:

<!-- ----- BEGIN REAL STUFF ----- -->

[if cgi ui_text_qualification]
        [calc]
                return if $CGI->{mv_like_spec};
                $Scratch->{page_banner} ||=
$Scratch->{page_title};
                $Scratch->{page_banner} .= errmsg(
 
'-- entries containing "%s"',
 
$CGI->{ui_text_qualification},
 
);
                return;
        [/calc]
[/if]

[if cgi year]
        [perl]
           $Scratch->{month} = $CGI->{month};
           $Scratch->{year} = $CGI->{year};

           return;
        [/perl]
[cal [scratchd month] [scratchd year]]
[/if]

<!-- ----- END REAL STUFF ----- -->

don't laugh, I am still learning the IC language.

P.S. 

I don't even have to practice to create run on sentances
;oP.

Thanks,

Tim

I've worked with UPS online tools and XML::Parser. If you would post the xml

Generic cross-platform tar package:

http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/tar/interchange-5.0.0.tar.gz

Debian packages:

http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/debian/5.0.0/interchange_5.0.0-1_i386.deb
http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/debian/5.0.0/interchange-cat-foundation_5.0.0-1_all.deb

http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/debian/5.0.0/libapache-mod-interchange_5.0.0-1_i386.deb

Source RPM:

http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/srpm/interchange-5.0.0-1.src.rpm

Red Hat Linux 7.2/7.3 RPMs:

http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/rpm/interchange-5.0.0-1.7.i386.rpm
http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/rpm/interchange-foundation-5.0.0-1.7.i386.rpm
http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/rpm/interchange-foundation-demo-5.0.0-1.7.i386.rpm

Red Hat Linux 9 RPMs, which require a nonthreaded Perl build with the
executable in /usr/local/bin/perl:

http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/rpm/interchange-5.0.0-1.9.i386.rpm
http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/rpm/interchange-foundation-5.0.0-1.9.i386.rpm
http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/5.0/rpm/interchange-foundation-demo-5.0.0-1.9.i386.rpm

Note that when installing the Red Hat Linux 9 RPMs, you'll probably
need to use the --nodeps option since rpm doesn't know about the custom
Perl build in /usr/local. You should install the main interchange
RPM with --nodeps first, then install interchange-foundation and
interchange-foundation-demo normally with a separate command, since they
depend on the interchange package, and rpm doesn't know what order to
install them in when you use --nodeps.

Ok I am not getting this one.

How do you grab variables from the url?
eg(www.site.com?foo=bar)
I want to use foo in usertag call.
eg([cal foo]) where cal is the name of
usertag.

All suggestions are appreciated,

Tim

Ok I am not getting this one.

How do you grab variables from the url?
eg(www.site.com?foo=bar)
I want to use foo in usertag call.
eg([cal foo]) where cal is the name of
usertag.

All suggestions are appreciated,

Tim

Underneath the catalog root is an images directory. I use the "image"
tag and I know if this does not work my images would not show up.

I can say this that in the admin UI display of many of my images do not
work. I can click on the links to them and see the image but many just
do not show up.

I am not sure if not being able to find the images for display is
related or not. I just can't understand how the image tag works for
everything under the store but not the admin UI, but I can't just click
on the image links and they are displayed.

I have never in the past have had many problems, images just seems to 
be an issue for some reason.

Hello,

I am not sure what this board is for. But I did see some questions about 
the eBay API and since I have some, I thought I would post here.

I have tried several examples from 100 eBay Hacks and some code samples 
posted on the ebay website, but can't get them to work. I always get the 
following error.

500 Can't connect to api-test.ebay.com:443 (Bad protocol 'tcp')

Can someone help?? I am including some code below -- I have blanked out
userids and passwords.

Thanks,

Saleem

Sorry, we can't help you with that.  But just to show that I'm not all 
that bad a fellow I've forwarded your email complete with full headers 
to the University Putra Malaysia so they might be able to take 
appropriate action on your atempt to defraud them out of a PHD degree.

I was wondering if anyone would notice. :-)

The machine is down at the moment while I perform some upgrades and
other maintenance.  It should be back up later today, if all goes well.

Of course it was noticed. It is the central repository for all good

Subject: [ic] Manually setting $Config->{ProductFiles}
Message-ID: <3FDF42C1.7020302@houseofireland.com>

Hi - i was hoping to do something very similar to that described in 
http://www.icdevgroup.org/pipermail/interchange-users/2000-October/001364.html 
but unfortunately it appears that the issue got sidetracked in 
subsequent posts.

I want to normally have only one table, products. But if a certain 
condition is met i want interchange to also start reading from another 
table.

I have a piece of perl code which, if the condition is met, overrides 
$Config->{ProductFiles}

i manually set @{$Config->{ProductFiles}} = ("products","newproducts");

i can then confirm that $Config->{ProductFiles}[0] is products and 
$Config->{ProductFiles}[1] is newproducts. Before that 
$Config->{ProductFiles}[1] is unset and $Config->{ProductFiles}[0] is 
products.

In order to get this down to as simple a situation as possible i put a 
perl block with @{$Config->{ProductFiles}} = ("products","newproducts"); 
at the start of flypage.html (no condition checking, it just overrides 
it regardless) and then tried to directly access the product page of  a 
product which only exists in newproducts. This didn't work.

What am i missing? Is it possible to override ProductFiles like this? 
What else should i be doing?

thanks

It is not possible in embedded Perl. If you set it then went global and
called Vend::Data::update_productbase(), it would take effect.

Subject: [ic] Critical security patch for Interchange 4.8.x
Message-ID: <20031216181740.GA17106@bill.heins.net>

There has been a security hole found in Interchange 4.8.x, and it may
also apply to early Interchange 4.9 series systems. Interchange 5.0
is not vulnerable in the default foundation, but it can be vulnerable
when @@MV_PREV_PAGE@@ is placed in a reachable page. This could be
the case when an Interchange 4.8 catalog was ported to 4.9 or 5.0.

If exploited, the hole can cause arbitrary ITL execution on the system,
and puts your data at risk of loss or compromise.

Interchange 4.8.8 has been released, and it fixes the problem.
It should be a very low-risk update for anything after Interchange
4.8.4.

Tar is at:

    http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/4.8/tar/interchange-4.8.8.tar.gz

RPMS at:

    http://ftp.icdevgroup.org/interchange/4.8/rpm/

To work around the problem without updating, make sure you remove all
references to @@MV_PREV_PAGE@@ in all pages -- in the standard
foundation this is found in special_pages/missing.html and
special_pages/violation.html. It can be replaced with [subject]
if you have Interchange 4.8.3 or higher or any Interchage 4.9.

Interchange 4.8.8 has been released, and it fixes the problem.
It should be a very low-risk update for anything after Interchange
4.8.4.

Subject: [ic] Scheduling module -- so far
In-Reply-To: <20031212225859.GA2609@bill.heins.net>
Message-ID: <000001c3c407$4b473980$02080a0a@TIM>

Ok all,

I intend on sharing my travels through developing a
scheduling / rental module 
for interchange. I have seen other posts concerning /wanting
such a module so here's my  
attempt. 

Due to the fact I am new to IC tags and Perl language, I
intend on developing functionality
first then optimizing code later unless someone has a
suggestion.

ALL input and help is very welcome. I have developed a
usertag
called cal.tag, 4 new fields in the transactions table
(delivery_date, delivery_time, 
pickup_date, pickup_time), two new menu tabs in Orders
(Delivery, Pickup), and 
template pages corresponding to menu tabs. 

Intentions: 

1) Intended use -> Party equipment rental.
2) Quote compilation according to available items in
non-rented inventory.
3) Restocking of items upon return from rental (with a
cleaning period before available).
4) Limited daily schedule for items to be delivered and for
items to be picked up.
5) maybe more to come after base (baby steps eh).

The user tag is as follows:
UserTag cal Order year month
UserTag cal addAttr
UserTag cal Documentation <<EOF

=pod

This tag uses the cal(1) command to display a calendar.

Options:

    month=numeric month value
    year=numeric year

Example:

	[cal year=2003 month=November]

=cut

EOF

UserTag cal Routine <<EOR
sub {
my ($in_year, $in_month) = @_;

my $get_schedule = sub {
   my ( $cal_day ) = @_;
   my $today = $Tag->convert_date( { raw => 1, body =>
$cal_day } );
   my $sql = "select fname,lname from transactions where
order_ymd like $today";

   my ($results, $col_name_hashref, $col_name_arrayref) =
$Tag->query({ wantarray => 1, sql => $sql, table =>
"transactions"});
   
   my $out = '';
   #loop through each row & display the days scheduled
deliveries.
   for (my $row=0; $row <= $#$results; $row++) {
      $out .= '<br>' . $results->[$row]->[0];
      $out .= ' ' . $results->[$row]->[1];

Subject: [ic] Scheduling module -- so far
Message-ID: <000101c3c408$14d82d40$02080a0a@TIM>

Ok all,

I intend on sharing my travels through developing a
scheduling / rental module 
for interchange. I have seen other posts concerning /wanting
such a module so here's my  
attempt. 

Due to the fact I am new to IC tags and Perl language, I
intend on developing functionality first then optimizing
code later unless someone has a suggestion.

ALL input and help is very welcome. I have developed a
usertag called cal.tag, 4 new fields in the transactions
table (delivery_date, delivery_time, 
pickup_date, pickup_time), two new menu tabs in Orders
(Delivery, Pickup), and 
template pages corresponding to menu tabs. 

Intentions: 

1) Intended use -> Party equipment rental.
2) Quote compilation according to available items in
non-rented inventory.
3) Restocking of items upon return from rental (with a
cleaning period before available).
4) Limited daily schedule for items to be delivered and for
items to be picked up.
5) maybe more to come after base (baby steps eh).

The user tag is as follows:
UserTag cal Order year month
UserTag cal addAttr
UserTag cal Documentation <<EOF

=pod

This tag uses the cal(1) command to display a calendar.

Options:

    month=numeric month value
    year=numeric year

Example:

	[cal year=2003 month=November]

=cut

EOF

UserTag cal Routine <<EOR
sub {
my ($in_year, $in_month) = @_;

my $get_schedule = sub {
   my ( $cal_day ) = @_;
   my $today = $Tag->convert_date( { raw => 1, body =>
$cal_day } );
   my $sql = "select fname,lname from transactions where
order_ymd like $today";

   my ($results, $col_name_hashref, $col_name_arrayref) =
$Tag->query({ wantarray => 1, sql => $sql, table =>
"transactions"});
   
   my $out = '';
   #loop through each row & display the days scheduled
deliveries.
   for (my $row=0; $row <= $#$results; $row++) {

mean, or not mean, that 5.0 will work with the stock Perl in Redhat 
Linux Enterprise?

Best,

Subject: [ic] COD Payment/Handling Charge
In-Reply-To: <p06002003bc0510200bcc@[10.0.0.2]>
Message-ID: <003d01c3c411$dc8f8ff0$1e00a8c0@harlekin>

Hello *,

Actually I have a problem how to configure COD Charges.

If I select COD as Payment IC shows a line that a amount of 0.00$ will
be added.
Where and how I have to specify this amount ?

Within new_browser_payment I found:

[msg arg.0="[handling cod]"]There will be a %s charge added for
COD.[/msg]

I skimmed the whole documentation for a enlighting description how
[handling] is to be used.
But I found no clue (at least I was not able to understand the example
given for mv_handling).

Anyone there who can help me out of this pit ?

Regards
Stephan

Subject: [ic] Area tag?
Message-ID: <000001c3c421$0bb37120$02080a0a@TIM>

hello,

I am looking a 5.0 tag reference and wondering is
this the proper way to pass the order # to the
order_view page using the area tag,
where($results->[$row]->[2])
is the order #:

$link = $Tag->area(  { href => "admin/order_view", 
	arg  => "order=$results->[$row]->[2]", }  );

Resulting link:
www.website.com/cgi-bin/scriptname/admin/order_view.html?id=
xxIsd4hg&mv_arg=order%3d00011&mv_pc=2890

The resulting link hints this is incorrect so I am
wondering what would be the right way.

Interchange 4.9.9, perl 5.8.2(no threads), redhat 8.0

Thanks,

Tim

Message-ID: <NEBBKHDKBEAKNMFADNDCOEENCFAA.david.radovanovic@verizon.net>

Hello,

Installed Interchange 4.8.7 several weeks ago and finished redesigning the
user interface (using the foundation demo); templates, pages, databases,
etc. The site was built for a customer who sells supplies to hospitals,
hmos, etc. Originally it was meant to be open to the general public however
things have changed (who could have guessed) and the site will be accessed
via password only by one of their clients that has several dozen "centers"
that supply their own customers throughout the US. Each "center" will
username/password access. There will be no payments or payment information
given since purchases will be billed as a "AR" account. Encryption isn't
necessary (or is it?). After the "center" employee (customer) logs in, all
the shipping and account information will be pre-populated in the data/forms
displayed on the pages, though not changeable/editable (by the "center"
employee). The Order Number will be formatted to include the date,time,and
"center" code, i.e. Order Number: 12160314-539.

The newbie questions are as follows:

1. Since encryption isn't needed, is there simple way to by-pass the
security-specific functions?
2. Can I reformat the order number as specified?
3. How do I set the "demo" site live without encryption enabled?

I've searched in vain and any help is very much appreciated. Thanks for a
FANTASTIC app :)

Anyone ever do this or can think of any problems this might cause ?
Or if someone can say this should be fine that would be good to
hear as well.

Make a copy of results.html and instead of passing the parameters for
the loop via the /scan/fi=....  simply hard code the values in the new
version of results.html ?

Anyone see any problems that might cause for a 4.9 version of IC ??

Thanks,

Jon

There is no fix for threaded Perl with Debian. The "fix" is 
setting the correct variables to allow to start Interchange
properly on Debian systems. Running Interchange with threaded
Perl is still not recommended.

I think i understand a bit now after googling. In order to see it taking 
any effect at all, i'm now setting ProductFiles and calling 
Vend::Data::update_productbase() at the start of a perl block which is 
autoloaded. Unfortunately the error log says Safe: Undefined subroutine 
&Vend::Data::update_productbase

How should i be calling this subroutine?

Thanks

That's what Mike meant when he said that you should call that from
global (i.e. non-local or embedded) Perl.  Defining a global UserTag
or GlobalSub etc. will do the trick.

Perhaps you could write a global UserTag that you could call like
this:

    [update-productbase tables="products foo bar"]

i thought autoloaded script was in the global scope? Or do i have to use

To help take some of the load off the official icdevgroup.org website,
I should publicise the fact that there is an archive of current and
previous Interchange releases here:

    http://www.interchange.rtfm.info/downloads/archive/index.html

I only keep the tar archives.  RPMs and other packages can be found
elsewhere, such as on the icdevgroup.org website.

You will have to define a GlobalSub or global UserTag.

Well, ok, Now I have a special Shipping called 'handling'.
But what do you mean with 'Then set the handling in the catalog.cfg
file.' ?
Please give me a ?lill hint what to enter where at catalog.cfg.

And how is this related to the value calculated by:
[msg arg.0="[handling cod]"]There will be a %s charge added for
COD.[/msg]

I would like to understand how this mechanism is working.

More likely a suid or ownership issue with the link file in cgi-bin.

Hi,
Thanks very much for your reply, I had the require line in a catalog.cfg 
file in the specific shop i wanted to use it in.
It now says the module is being loaded ok. Net::SSLeay is installed.

Basically, after a week i am still having 'a problem'. I have upgraded 
to interchange 5.0.0 ok.
Now, dont ask me what that problem is, as im not getting any errors in 
the global interchange error.log or the specific catalog error.log.
I have tried the doc's suggestion of putting the perl code into web 
pages but all it prints is 'undef'.

I have tried uncommenting the ::logGlobal lines in the module to try and 
dig up an error, but I dont think the modules subroutine is being 
entered on ordering.

I have tried logging network connections to see if it tries to make a 
connection to protx, I dont think it does.

I have tried about almost every possible permutation of routes.



Currently this is something like my configuration:
1. Require module Vend::Payment::Protx_107
is in interchange.cf and appears to start fine

2. MV_PAYMENT_MODE<tab>protx
is in products/variable.txt

3. catalog.cfg:

Route protx <<EOR
    attach 1
    id <my_id>
    host <uk_ptx_host>
    currency GBP
    txtype PAYMENT
    report etc/newreport
EOR

(Route protx_vt_route AS perl docs although i dont think i need it)

Route default cascade "protx main log ..."

4. I did the vt stuff such as make the payment dir in pages and put 
files in, although i probably dont need this. Interchange admin UI is 
turned OFF.

When i order something, I get a recipt page, an email, but nothing goes 
to protx and I dont get an error. Ive tried turning on interchange DEBUG 
1 with no avail.

Any hints?
Is there somewhere the protx connections are logged? or am i going to 
have to hack the source?

Cheers.

Sandy.

Your payment route should not be in the main route. That could be causing 
problems. Remove it, reconfig and try again.

Is your payment method credit_card? The charge routine will not be called 
at all unless this is the case.

Using Ensim think it's doing something funky to the uid's. Miva runs

When you say "encryption", I'll assuming you're talking about PGP/GnuPG
rather than HTTPS/SSL.

Encryption is only required when emailing credit card details around,
for obvious reasons.  If you don't collect/email credit card information,
or other sensitive details, then you don't need PGP/GnuPG encryption.

In this case, you can switch it off by setting "EncryptProgram" to
"none" in your catalog.cfg file.  Obviously, with this disabled, if
you do attempt to email credit card details around then you will
see messages like "NEED ENCRYPTION ENABLED" in your emails.

As for the order numbers, why not simply store all of the information
(date/time, centre number and sequential order number) as separate
columns when the order is placed?  The columns can then be formatted
in any way you like in the emails and in any reports etc.

Having an order number of "12160314-539", as specified, isn't a lot of
use if centre code 539 places two orders on the same day, so I assume
you really want "12160314-539-1".  I would store that information in
three columns, as I said.

Storing the details as separate columns would also help when you want
to perform queries on the order data.  I.e. list all orders from centre
number 539 during 4Q2003.

Not sure if there has been some updates and/or made part of the official
IC package, but assuming not you'll need to write a little code in
stock-alert-added.html and add something like..

[email
to="__ORDERS_TO__"
subject="__COMPANY__ - Stock Alert Request"
from="__COMPANY__ <__EMAIL_INFO__>"
reply="__COMPANY__ <__EMAIL_INFO__>"]
.
.
[/email]

Really quite simple

Hello all,

I was trying some things with the orders page and I accidentally changed the
settings on the page. I clicked the "Orders" tab at the top of the page in
the admin area. Once this opened there was a small link to the very
left of the page that let me change the layout. I changed it to "accounting"
just to see if it would give me more info but now all the tabs on the top do
not work and I can't change it back, and the edit link is not there any
more. How would I set this back to the way it was?

I'm using 4.9.9 MySQL

And ensure that 'mv_order_profile' is set to 'credit_card' if it's not done
automatically via the choice of payment method.

Four places, as mentioned under "troubleshooting". If you run

happens. If you don't see it, it's not happening, but it definitely

The table builds fine when interchange is restarted:

)

done.


and I can log in to the Admin UI as my superuser.

However, when I test the table by trying to change my password through the
Admin UI, none of my changes take.  The UI doesn't report an error, but I
get errors like these in my catalog error.log:


192.168.0.152 gIapbYXn:192.168.0.152 - [17/December/2003:15:06:01 -0800]
blah /service/blah/process.html Attempted database operation without table,
fields, or key.
> Table: ''
> Fields:''
> Key:   ''
>

I looked at the Data.pm perl module and found that this error is due to lack
of mv_data_table and mv_data_key values, so I passed them in explicitly with
hidden form inputs.  Then I got this error:

192.168.0.152 gIapbYXn:192.168.0.152 - [17/December/2003:15:09:43 -0800]
blah /service/blah/process.html No key 'username' found for
function='update' table='access'

So I passed in a value for username, too.

That got rid of all the errors, but my password change does not take, and I
can only log back in with the old password.

When I try to edit other fields in the access table through the 'Tables' tab
in the Admin UI, I get no errors, but the changes are not accepted.  The
last_login field for my superuser is also not updated when I logged in.

Am I missing something?  I've built other Interchange tables from scratch
with no problem, but porting this table from dbm seems to be breaking
existing code in the Admin UI.

Any help would be greatly appeciated.

Thanks!

From: cwenham at synesmedia.com (Christopher Wenham)
Date: Wed Dec 17 21:36:54 2003
Subject: [ic] Donation: Geocode and proximity usertags (GIS functions)
Message-ID: <200312172147.15960.cwenham@synesmedia.com>


 I recently had to develop some GIS-ish functions for a couple of 
projects. The following usertags are a result, which I've released 
under the GPL.

 Geocode is a wrapper for a third-party service at 
http://www.geocoding.com/, which will take any street address in the 
US and convert it to Earth coordinates (Latitude and Longitude, like 
on a GPS).

 Proximity makes use of a table full of geocoded street addresses to 
find stations within a search radius centered on a Zip code or another 
pair of coordinates. EG: "Find all stores within 10 miles of zip code 
11756". Since it searches by Earth coordinates, it will find stations 
that may not be in the same zip or state, but still be within the 
given radius. 

 With the two you can create a classic "store finder" quickly. 

 The third-party geocoding service isn't expensive, running at about 
$90 for 3,000 geocoding credits. To make zip-code searches work with 
the proximity tag you'll need a table of zip codes and their 
corresponding Earth coordinates. The US Census Bureau provides such a 
table for free on their web site (vintage 1990), but I've packaged a 
version ready for use with Interchange on my web site:

UserTag geocode Order address city state zip
UserTag geocode addAttr
UserTag geocode Documentation <<EOD

By Chris Wenham of Synesmedia, Inc. - www.synesmedia.com
This software is distributed under the terms of the GNU Public License.
Version 1.0, December 15, 2003.

Geocode a US street address, using a third-party online service at 
http://www.geocode.com/ (Tele Atlas). Returns Earth coordinates in 
latitude and longitude. Useful for building 'store finder' utilities, 
and for saving you the chore of hitting the streets with a GPS receiver.

Installation

1) Go to http://www.geocode.com/ and sign up for their Eagle Test Drive.
You will get a username and password and should also get a few free
geocoding credits for testing with.

2) Go to their Download area and download the "EZ-Locate Sample Source 
Code v1.xx". When you compile this on your Linux/Unix machine it should 
produce an executable called "rie".

3) Add the following variables to your Interchange catalog's variables.txt

GEOCODE_PATH	/path/to/rie	Geocoding
GEOCODE_LOGIN	your_login	Geocoding
GEOCODE_PASS	your_pass	Geocoding

4) Put geocode.tag in your Interchange's code/UserTag directory. Restart.

5) Pay the nice people at geocode.com for some more geocoding credits.

Synopsis

	<p>The Empire State Building is at lat./lng. [geocode
		address="350 5th Ave"
		city="New York"
		state="NY"
		zip="10118"
	] on your GPS unit</p>

    Will print:

	The Empire State Building is at lat./lng. 40.748318,-073.985223 on
	your GPS unit.

Will return a comma separated latitude and longitude. This can be parsed
and stored in separate lat/lng fields in your addresses table so you can
use it later with the [proximity] tag. It could also be passed untouched
into the origin="" parameter of the proximity tag for use when doing a
radius search, like this:

[proximity origin="[geocode address='...' city='...' state='..' zip='..']"]
	<p>{ADDRESS}, {CITY}, {STATE} {ZIP}</p>
[/proximity]

At the time of writing, Tele Atlas provides about 3,000 geocoding credits
for $90, and it's cheaper per coding if you buy more. However, since 
buildings don't generally pick up and move anywhere, it might make sense 
to cache the results or even store them permanently so you don't waste 
credits.

Side effects

If you don't feel like parsing the results, the lat and long are also set
in the following temporary scratch variables.

	gc_latitude
	gc_longitude
	The latitude in longitude, in 15-digit precision. 

	gc_popdens
	Tele Atlas gets a lot of its data from the US Census Bureau, and 
	they've seen fit to include some bits and pieces in the results for 
	each address. I have no use for most of this, but the population 
	density rating looked interesting, so I decided to set it as a 
	side-effect variable just in case it became useful.
	The possible values are:

			U = Urban
			R = Rural
			Blank = unspecified


Future improvements

This tag should probably also parse and store the Postal Standardized
version of the adddress, plus the match type.

UserTag proximity Documentation <<EOD

By Chris Wenham of Synesmedia, Inc. - www.synesmedia.com
This software is distributed under the terms of the GNU Public License.
Version 1.0, December 15, 2003.

Find locations within a search radius of an origin, specified either as
a zip code or a latitude/longitude pair. Format the results with a user
supplied template.

This tag and others can be found at
http://www.synesmedia.com/twiki/bin/view/Cyc/Proximity

Requirements

* Zip code lookup table (may have come with this tag, otherwise, check
  the US Census Bureau's web site to get a free one:
  http://www.census.gov/geo/www/gazetteer/places.html )

* A table with geocoded locations. (Suggesion: add numeric "lat" and 
  "lng" fields to any table of street addresses, then use a geocoding 
  service such as http://www.geocode.com/, or a handy GPS unit and a
  lot of walking, to find their Earth coordinates)

Store and pass coordinates expressed in degrees with double precision 
(15 digits), where zero on each plane is the Prime Meridian (longitude) 
and Equator (lattitude).

Synopsis

  [proximity zip="90210"]
	<p>{NAME} <br>{ADDRESS}, {CITY}, {STATE} {ZIP} is only {DISTANCE} miles from you.</p>
  [/proximity]

Arguments

  zip="90210"
	Any zip or postal code that will match up against an entry in your
	Zip lookup table. This tag will expect to find GPS coordinates in
	that table's "lat" and "lng" columns.
	If you provide a US zip code, this tag will first attempt a direct
	match, but if it can't find the zip in your lookup table, it will
	search up and down until it does find one. 
	If you provide a zip code, you don't need to use the origin argument
	below.

  origin="-73.2412348,140.33458734"
	GPS coordinates to use instead of looking up a Zip code. Specified
	as lat/lng. Accepts the same format as the output of the [geocode] 
	tag.

  max_radius="10"
	Maximum radius, in miles, to search within. Defaults to 10.

  min_radius="0"
	Minimum radius, in miles. Defaults to 0. 

  max_results="10"
	Maximum number of results to return. Defaults to 10.

  offset_results="0"
	Skip the first n results. This can be used with max_results to do
	basic pagination. It's up to you whether you want to do pagination
	based on min/max radius, or offsets.

	See the Side Effects section for scratch variables set by this tag
	with the last/least distant station's distance.

  query="SELECT * FROM addresses WHERE (lat < {LATHIGH} AND lat > {LATLOW}) AND (lng < {LNGHIGH} AND lng > {LNGLOW})"
	A SQL query that will return a list of geocoded addresses to search
	for proximity to the origin. If your database does not have any GIS
	features, such as MySQL, then this query should make use of 
	the {LATHIGH}, {LATLOW}, {LNGHIGH} and {LNGLOW} placeholders. These
	are substituted for the coordinates of a bounding rectangle. All
	these do is restrict the search space for the "proper" radius search
	that comes later. It'll still work if you pass 
	"SELECT * FROM addresses", but performance will suffer on large 
	tables.

  origin_query="SELECT * FROM zips WHERE zip = '{ZIP}'"
	The proximity tag assumes you have a table called "zips" with three
	columns: zip, lat, lng. If you pass a zip code to search from, then
	the tag will look for it here. If, however, you have a different 
	table name and structure, you can override the whole SQL query here.
	NOTE: If it doesn't find a match on the zip code that's initially
	passed, the tag will search up and down numerically until it does.
	Therefore, you need to keep the '{ZIP}' so the tag can substitue for
	whatever zip code it's searching for at the time. DO NOT try to
	pass the zip code this way. Use the zip="" parameter instead.

  lat_field="latitude"
  lng_field="longitude"
  origin_lat_field="zip_lat"
  origin_lng_field="zip_long"
	The proximity tag also assumes the column names for latitude and
	longitude are called "lat" and "lng" in your tables, respectively.
	If this isn't the case, set their actual names with these parameters.

  header="<p>The following were found within 10 miles of {CITY}, {STATE}</p>"
  footer="<p>Distances calculated from approximate center of {ZIP}</p>"
	An optional header and footer displayed only if results were found. 
	Any field returned by the origin_query can be addressed with 
	"{FIELDNAME}" template placemarkers.
	
  noresults="<p>Sorry, there were no results for {ZIP} in {CITY}, {STATE}</p>"
	Optional template to display a message when there are no results.


Optional configuration settings

The following variables can be set in your catalog's variable.txt

  PROX_QUERY
  PROX_ORIGIN_QUERY
  PROX_LAT_FIELD
  PROX_LNG_FIELD
  PROX_ORIGIN_LAT_FIELD
  PROX_ORIGIN_LNG_FIELD
	These all correspond to the parameters of the same name, described
	above. 

Side effects

This tag will set the following temporary scratch variables before exit.

  prox_furthest_dist
	The distiance, in miles, that the furthest "station" was found and
	included in the results. This may not be the furthest station in the
	database, just the furthest that still came within max_radius.

  prox_nearest_dist
	Like the above, but the distance to the nearest found station.

	NOTE: Both prox_furthest_dist and prox_nearest_dist are saved with
	20-digit precision. This is so you can pass them as arguments to
	min_/max_radius as accurate starting/ending points. You might want
	to format these numbers before you display them as user info. 

  prox_display_count
	The number of stations displayed in the results. Use this to find
	out if there were fewer than max_results stations found.

With basic ecommerce, I think that is the rule of thumb.  

Once you mention "medical" in the US, the rules change significantly.  HIPAA 
regulations require safeguarding of personally identifiable information as 
well as  encryption over the wire for any personally identifiable 
information when transferred over an insecure network. Once someone puts in 
a comment that identifies a patient you have the meet the HIPAA 
guidelines.

I agree with Kevin.  With medical products, you are often required to 
maintain an audit trail.  You may be asked to show all orders.  When an 
order is based on composite fields, you really cant find "missing" orders.  

Many vendor agreements and state licensure requirements insist on the right 
to audit your records on demand.  Make sure your clients responsibilies are 
also being met.

Hello,

I've searched the docs and mailing list but havn't been able to answer this
question:

Does IC support using AuthorizeNet e-Checks?

Has anyone tried this or made a module to accept this form of payment?

Thanks,

Russell

Dear Russell -

I did do this for one client who was running (and still runs) the 4.8 
branch. A new module is not required, just a change to the parameter list 
for the post to Authorizenet, as well as how the return results are 
evaluated... and of course a new payment method with it's own fields and 
checks on the checkout page.

It was not a huge job, just tedious. I'm not sure they found it to be all 
that useful from a business standpoint. I suppose it might be considered a 
net gain to incorporate it into the core, but I would have to consult with 
the other coreteam members first, and time frame would be fuzzy even if 
they agreed it was worth adding...

In-Reply-To: <NCBBKKCDKCGEGHHAACBIOEMLPNAA.tech@khouse.org>
Message-ID: <ONEAJKOAPDOCCMJDGOINKECGCDAA.megan@junglevision.com>

I'm upgrading Interchange from 4.9.9 to 5.0. and also changing from the
internal database to MySQL4.0. Here's my problem so far.

When I start interchange I get the following error:

Configuring catalog discreet...Required Perl module DBD::mysql not present.
Aborting catalog.

Ok, I know the obvious answer is install the darn module. I ran cpan then
install DBD::mysql which got the module, compiled, and tested it.

It looks like the compile had no errors but when it did make test it failed
because it could not test with the nopassword option. I managed to get the
make test to run by removing the mysql root password. Testing failed 13 of
the tests.

Any suggestions on how to fix this???

Thanks,
Megan

There is a flag to install DBD::mysql without testing the server 
interaction, if you are sure you have everything right. But what I usually 
do is set up a test db with a test username and password in mysql, then run 
Perl Makefile.PL for DBD::mysql with flags telling it to specifically use 
the same. If you've already downloaded the module with cpan, just go to 
~/.cpan/build/DBD::mysql-xxxx/ and type "perl Makefile.PL -h" (I think that 
is the correct switch) to see the list of flags you can set for make.

Subject: [ic] problem with images for buttons in account.html
Message-ID: <6.0.1.1.2.20031219001547.05157ec0@wheresmymailserver.com>

Hi Folks,

I'm working on account.html and I'm trying to use images in pace of the 
standard buttons as provided by the browser. I'm using IC 4.8.7 and Perl 
5.6.1 under Linux.

At the moment I have the "save account info" button as an image and the 
"save and checkout" button as a standard submit button using the following 
working code as found on the google archives:

<INPUT TYPE="image" VALUE="Save Acct. Info" 
src="__THEME_IMG_DIR__saveaccountinfo_button.gif" border=0 name="mv_click">

[if items]
   [set Save and Checkout]mv_nextpage=ord/checkout[/set]
&nbsp;<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Save and Checkout" NAME=mv_click>
[/if]

I've tried using the following code on the INPUT tag for the "save and 
checkout" button to use an image, but it doesn't work and I end up with a 
search results page when clicked. As a side issue the user data in the form 
isn't being saved either when the image is used.

[if items]
   [set Save and Checkout]mv_nextpage=ord/checkout[/set]
&nbsp;<INPUT TYPE=image VALUE="Save and Checkout" 
src="__THEME_IMG_DIR__checkout_button.gif" NAME=mv_click>
[/if]

I can't work out why this doesn't work, or why I end up on a search page. 
Does anyone have any ideas what I'm missing or of another way to achieve 
this? I've looked at using the [button][/button] IC tag, but all attempts 
with that have also failed.

Many thanks in advance

Mark

Russell,

webspace to post it at the moment.

btw, to anybody who knows, how does one go about submitting modules etc?

I'm wondering why anyone is still using this silly POP3-before-SMTP

I have just tried to place a dummy order on the demo site. I used the

The resulting page showed:

----
...

There were errors in your last submission:

(Customer record creation): There was an error adding you to the customer
table.
The areas you need to correct are shown in this color below.
...
----

However, no fields were displayed in red.

Also, if in the Management UI, the order was displayed in the summary
screen, but selecting the user (s, c) just shown a list of users.

Is this expected behavoir, I noticed similar results when testing 4.8.7
sometime ago?

TIA.

The [button] tag would be the correct way to handle this, and it should get 
the job done.

Hi Ed,

Thanks for your reply.

As I said above I've tried various flavours of the [button] tag with little 
success :(

Would it be possible to give me a working example that I can tweak?

Many thanks

Mark,

      I've run into the exact same issue. The button tag, I believe but haven't
completely
figured it out, makes some assumptions about the location of the images. And if
it can't find the image it will fortunately default to some other image or the
text
specified.  What I've done, not the best solution for sure, is made the path
a somewhat hard coded path like the following

src="__SECURE_SERVER__/cart/images/HomeName/images/recalculate.gif"

You need to add 'name=account_change' to the opening <form ...> tag. Then 
all you need is:

[if items]
   [button
                   name="mv_click"
                   src="__THEME_IMG_DIR__checkout_button.gif"
                   text="Save and Checkout"
                   hidetext=1
                   form=account_change
           ]
                   mv_nextpage=ord/checkout
           [/button]

   <br><br>
   <A HREF="[area ord/checkout]">[L]No change, go to checkout[/L]</A>
[/if]


Note that the [set Save and Checkout]...[/set] is no longer needed.

Message-ID: <50490.12.11.149.5.1071857466.squirrel@www.spamisevil.org>

Hi,

I did a manual install of Interchange 5.0.0 that seemed to go fine, but
when I run makecat, I get the following error:

./configure: ./configure: No such file or directory
Couldn't run configure; probably no C compiler.
        Couldn't find the executable file 'vlink'.

        Please give the complete path to the link program.

Link program?

I'm not sure what it's asking for.  I found a file named vlink.pl in
dist/src and tried giving it the path to that file but when I try to run
the demo I get a message in the browser saying the Interchange server is
not running.  The server seems to start ok and ps shows that it's running.

I couldn't find anything in the FAQ that deals with this problem.  RTFM
answere are fine, as long as they come with a pointer to the appropriate
FM.

Thanks,

Don Silvia

Hi Jon,

Thanks for your reply :)

Like you I was able to get the button to display the image I wanted by 
putting full URLs in the [button] code, but it's what happens after I click 
the image that's causing me problems. I've not yet managed to come up with 
a complete [button][/button] tag that saves the form data and then proceeds 
to the checkout all in the one click like the standard button does.

Hopefully Ed will post an example for us :)

Mark

Ed, you're a star!

Although the button code you've given is exactly the same as what I'd come 
with, the missing component in all this was the name="account_change" in 
the HTML <FORM....> tag.

I guess it helps if IC knows which form to handle :)

Many thanks

Sorry, I meant to say installed from source, as opposed to installed from
RPM.

Subject: [ic] help with survey
Message-ID: <1071866167.22482.146.camel@isengard>

       I have been trying to create a survey in Interchange (vers
4.9.8), however, I have run into some unpleasant difficulties, which I
am hoping someone will be able to address.  For one, I seem to be unable
to use the admin UI version of survey creation to obtain the same survey
functionality as represented in the Foundation (in fact, attempting to
modify the Foundation survey in the admin UI actually decreases the
Foundation survey's functionality).  By functionality, I mean certain
aspects that are present in the Foundation survey, but I seem to be
unable to duplicate through the admin UI.  For instance, the last
question page in the Foundation survey replaces the 'Next -->' button
with a 'Finish' button, but this capability seems to be missing from the
Admin UI.  Also, the survey created through the admin UI does not seem
to record any results, and thus allows one to take the survey multiple
times.  Also, a strange 'GO' link is created on the final page that
links back to the home page and final page titles do not seem to be
displaying properly.
        Is there some other way to modify/create surveys (besides the
admin UI)?  The only other way I can think of is hand modifying the
survey.txt file, but that seems a bit more work than should be
necessary.  Or have these issues been addressed in the newer versions of
Interchange?

Are there any other files related to the surveys functionality besides
survey.txt?

        Advice and/or answers would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks!

IT is not, but you have to manipulate the "Thanks" tab.

It is possible to recreate the provided survey from the UI, but probably
not completely intuitive.

This is one of the areas I plan on working on for 5.1/5.2. On my
todo list ( which always changes based on what my clients want):

	-- Easy generation/graphing of one-question quick-polls
	-- Easy generation of email feedback form
	-- Integrate graphing better

>  Also, the survey created through the admin UI does not seem

That is controlled by some settings, and those do work. The key is
to use "standard survey log".

>  Also, a strange 'GO' link is created on the final page that

Have you tried cloning the demo survey and modifying it?

I'm having problems editing multiple items while in the Admin page.

I'm on the Administation/Preferences/Company page. No matter how many boxes
have a check mark, neither the "edit checked" or "delete checked" buttons do
anything.  If I click on a variable name, it brings up the variable info,
and I can edit or delete it just fine.

How do I fix it so I can edit multiple items???

Thanks,

As far as I knew, there were no ASCII zone files before now --
you had to get their PDF and clip and paste.

It is good to know these exist. I might format them up and make
them available.

I have a script which makes the rate files good:

#!/usr/bin/perl

## Turns N-N column into separate columns.
##
##  usage: joindash < input > output
##
## Used for building Fedex rate tables from their brain-dead thing


use Getopt::Std;

getopts('td:j:');

use vars qw/$opt_t $opt_d $opt_j/;
use strict;
my $delim =  $opt_t ? "\t" : '\s*,\s*';
my $joiner = $opt_t ? "\t" : ',';

$delim = $opt_d if $opt_d;
$joiner = $opt_j if $opt_j;

my @cols;
my @ocols;
my @hcols = 'weight';

$ocols[0] = 0;

while(<>) {
	next unless /^Weight/i;
warn "Found weight line\n";
	s/Zone //g;
	s{/}{-}g;
	@cols = split /\s*,\s*/, $_;
	for (my $i = 1; $i < @cols; $i++) {
		$cols[$i] =~ m{(\d+)(?:-(\d+))?};
		my $b = $1;
		my $e = $2;
warn "i=$i b=$b e=$e";
		if($e) {
			for ( my $j = $b; $j <= $e; $j++ ) {
				$ocols[$j] = $i;
			}
		}
		else {
			$ocols[$b] = $i;
		}
	}
	last;
}

for(my $i = 1; $i < @ocols; $i++) {
	next unless defined $ocols[$i];
	push @hcols, $i;
}
print join $joiner, @hcols;
print "\n";

The zone tables I have never looked at, but if I have time between Christmas

Software axiom: Lack of speed kills.

I just posted a message indicating I could not get multiple edits to work
while in the Admin page.  Specifically, on the Administration / Preferences
/ Company screen I get a set of edit and delete buttons on the top and
bottom of the company variable list.  The buttons on the top of the list do
nothing, and the buttons on the bottom of the list work fine.

I assume this is either a bug in Interchange or my version 5.0.0 is somehow
corrupted.  Anyone know which?

Thanks,
Megan

Just curious...

How would you go about copying a coderef? Remember, that routine
makes a copy of dereferenced items, not references.

If you want to look at what Storable, FreezeThaw and some others
have done, you will see they don't copy coderefs either, though I
think some are trying to use B::DeParse to try and get the equivalent.

I was wondering about that, myself ;-)

Thanks for the quick reply.  This question came about due to
me generating the following error in RPC/Prefork mode with SubCatalog:

Died in server spawn: do not know how to copy CODE(0x878ebe8)

from a patched V4.9.7-200303310658's Util.pm.  I've quit using
SubCatalogs for now, so it's not an issue (to me).  Also, I had
trouble replicating the error (in order to test across systems
and versions)... but I was looking at copyref() and was curious
about the notion of copying a coderef, figuring perhaps it might
play a role in spawning daemons in prefork or some such thing.


Happy Holidays!

I've just done a quick test and can confirm the behaviour.  The workaround
appears to be to put the on-the-fly items first in the list and follow
those with the list of "real" items.

hmmmm, I'm using order groups because the OnFly Items are free and only 
given with the first item. If I put the onfly items first, then they are 
not removed when the "Real" item is deleted.

I'm thinking I could use the ItemAction Functions to work around this.

Any Ideas?

Subject: [ic] Excel Parse Fails Even with template.xls???
Message-ID: <001401c3c7a7$ae306960$6400a8c0@xp1600>

Hi folks,

I am having real problems uploading an excel products spreadsheet into
IC, I have been told that there is nothing wrong with the IC install and
it must be my spreadsheet.

I am not convinced, I have gone back to the default template with a
single product line and get this message:-

-------------
FATAL error

Failed to parse XLS file upload/template.xls: 

Progress to date:
-------------

In the error.log I see this:-

--------------
require trapped by operation mask at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/File/Copy.pm
line 10
Compilation failed in require at (eval 43) line 3
---------------

It appears in the middle of some perl script that seems to be mentioning
countries and shipping, my locale is set to en_GB if it makes any
difference.

Can anyone help me with this please??

Many thanks,
Andy.

Whenever I get those errors it always seems to be the spreadsheet. In my
case I am using the foundation theme which has sample data included. You
might want to look closely and make sure Excel hasn't added some offending
charcters. Take a look at the errors log and see exactly where IC balks.

I am fairly certain this is not a spreadsheet problem as my spreadsheets
all load fine on my home lan system. I also cannot get the foundation
construct.xls file to parse.

What else can I do, I am really stuck here??

One way is to simply have a form post on your receipt.html page which
directs them to PayPal and passes as much or as little order info as
desired.

eg.
[if value mv_payment eq PayPal]
[tmp paypalamount][calc]sprintf('%.2f', [subtotal
noformat=1]);[/calc][/tmp]
<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_ext-enter">
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="some@emailaddress.com">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="[scratch paypalamount]">
<input type="hidden" name="tax" value="[salestax noformat=1]">
<input type="hidden" name="shipping" value="[shipping noformat=1]">

.........form parameters optional i.e. address etc.
.......

<input type="image" src="__THEME_IMG_DIR__pay_paypal.jpg" name="submit" alt
="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">
</form>

Look into the logs of your apache, this might be really helpful. Lots might happen and result in 500. ;)

Message-ID: <opr0lyeqw9rpbzox@mail.hazenet.net>

Hi all,

IC 4.9.8

I have driven myself crazy with this one, and am at a loss. I have
an IC cron job set up, and the [scratch email_body] value is either
not being set or displayed in this context.  code below for further
details. the exact same code produces the expected result when using
the 'test ITL snippet' page... and there are no errors.  I must be
missing something about how this type of value and the 'jobs' work
together or something.

[tmp email_body][query
	   sql="SELECT code,user,start_date,end_date,type,host_domain
			FROM subscriptions
			WHERE ((( CURRENT_DATE() + 0 ) < end_date )

You appear to have a syntax error in there:

    [email	to="blahblah"

should be:

    [email	to="blahblah"]

I haven't looked at the rest of your code, as that error seemed to
stand out from the crowd.

Tom,

I assume that your secure server is at a different domain than your main 
site. This is not supported by Interchange.

We have the following setting in catalog.cfg:

AlwaysSecure    ord/checkout results login order change_password ord/basket

That means that the transition to the secure server occurs during the 
order process, and the cart is not lost on the way to the checkout page.

In addition we have disabled the "buy now" button on the results.html 
page, as it will not comform in any way that I have tried to rewrite it. 
In other words any attempt to force a order through the secure process 
results in either a bounce to the last  page visited (its in the code) 
or an endless loop for the web server if the next page "nothing"  is 
altered to something more specific.

Mike Heins tells us that all of our cleints should purchase a secure 
certificate - then none of this would be nescessary, and checkout could 
take place on the main site.

Although cheap certificates are now available from www.instantssl.com I 
have discouraged my customers form paying out extra money during the 
first year.

Also I was a bit concerned because each secure certificate requires 
either an additional ip address or port 208.134.35.67:443, 
 208.134.35.67:444  etc.

I now realize that I may be building numerous servers to cater for tthe 
demands of succesful stores, and hence the availability of ip addresses 
may not be an issue,

I hope this was relevant to your query,

Regards,

Frank Reitzenstein.

Hey guys.  First don't top post otherwise the natives get restless :)))

If what Frank said doesn't help make sure your images on the
checkout page are secure (i.e. https://).  Funny how this issue
has come up a few times in the last couple of weeks.

In the most cases you get more helpful information from the global Interchange error log.

That little bit comes from  in file(s)include/checkout/ - locating 
something like this is as easy as:

         grep -r 'var possible' yourcat/*

FYI - in keeping with the structure of the foundation demo, at a minimum 
there will be other changes needed there, as well as the addition of a new 
PAYMENT_ACCEPTED variable to the catalog, and a new profile in 
etc/profiles.order.

Yes - it is a known problem. You are S.O.L. unless you want to rewrite that 
code yourself, because the position of the ICDEVGROUP is that gdbm is no 
longer supported in the UI and in all likelihood this will be enforced at 
config- or code-level in future releases. FWIW, the 'ship checked 
automatically' from the Orders list should still work. The real solution is 
to switch to one of the supported external dbms, which is really the only 
sane choice for serious projects anyway.

I have now also taken this block of code, which is tested and
works as expected, and instead of enclosing it into a [tmp] value
i have logged it to a text file, creating a new file at the
beginning so that it is blank, then appending each subsequent entry
to it if it exists, and then [include]'ing that file into the email
that gets sent out.

Again, this method also works as a test on the ITL page, and yet
will not log anything to the file (although it is created) from
the job.

there must be something here that is breaking this.  are there certain
things that will not work from a job that have not been noted yet?
of course, i am setting a couple of scratch values for a date and
such in this job as well, and they display, but my main block (perhaps
its when we get into the queries?) will not.

if anyone wants to see it, i will post the code with the logging
method, although it is almost identical.

dumbfounded.

I can confirm this - I have not had a chance to run it by the other 
developers, but it appears that IC 4.9.9 and up require a higher Perl 
version than 5.6.0 (implicitly at least), and in fact this may even be in a 
README file in the dist directory somewhere. Building a new non-threaded 
Perl from the latest release and installing all the needed modules, then 
installing/running interchange 5.0 off of that instance of Perl is the fix.

Subject: [ic] FedEx shipping question
Message-ID: <1072195852.22482.195.camel@isengard>

I am having trouble getting the FedEx shipping working properly. The
Zone file from FedEx seems to differ from the UPS Zone file in that it
must query by weight instead of by zip. My question is how do I tell
that ship method to query differently then by zip? Maybe my problem is
something different so I will post some of my configuration.

ok, i have done more testing and finally narrowed down the problem
although i still cannot get it to work and it was the last thing
i expected.

my usertag that is being called test dates and compares them and
then based on how they compare with each other and today, it may
or may not set $Scratch->{bill_it} = 1;  now, when i test the
user tag (an example is below) it works just as expected, but in
the context of the job, the scratch value never shows up.  what
i do not know is whether or not the usertag is even being executed
or what.  Any ideas on how i can test this further to determine
what is causing this strangeness?

EXAMPLE ON A TEST PAGE:
[loop list="20031123 20031124"]
[billing-check start_date="[loop-code]"
                last_billed=""
                type="hosting"]
test scratch bill_it: [scratch bill_it]
[/loop]

RESULTS FROM PAGE:
test scratch bill_it: 1 <- should be 1
test scratch bill_it:   <- should be blank

RESULTS RUNNING SAME THING FROM JOB:
test scratch bill_it:   <- is blank
test scratch bill_it:

any ideas? thanks!

 IPN needs a URL for PayPal to POST a form to, so you'll need to create either 
a standalone CGI program for PayPal to POST to, or create a page in the 
catalog's "pages" directory that contains the code to do your magic.

 BUT... IPN integration has been looked at for Interchange several times in 
the past, but there's a big problem that implementors keep running into. If I 
have this right, I think it goes like this:

 1) There is no way to avoid sending the customer off to PayPal's web site, 
because you can't take the customer's PayPal username and password and then 
masquarade as that user to PayPal. (Despite being against PayPal terms of 
service, It's not even worth trying, because you have no way of knowing what 
source of funds attached to the customer's PayPal account they want to use.)

 2) PayPal does not automatically redirect the customer back to your site once 
the payment is complete. The best you can get is a little "Continue" button 
on the final page of the PayPal sequence, which you can program to take the 
customer back to your site. Not every customer will remember to click on that 
button, so it's not a reliable way to inform Interchange that the payment was 
successful. 

 3) IPN should theoretically solve that problem, because PayPal will POST a 
form to any URL you specify when the payment is complete. But this POST will 
come from PayPal's IP address and not the customer's, so Interchange will not 
recognize it as part of the same session. That means any Interchange page 
called by that POST will be in a new session with an empty shopping basket 
and no customer information. 

 The only way to get around the IP address mismatch is to run Interchange in 
WIDEOPEN mode, which opens up a security hole and isn't really an option in a 
serious production environment.

 4) Last but not least, even if you do somehow get Interchange to use the 
contents of the IPN POST within the customer's session, there still isn't a 
reliable way to get the customer's browser back to your site so you can show 
her the receipt page. I think the best you can do is to display a message 
asking the customer to click on the "Continue" button at the end of the 
PayPal sequence before you send her to PayPal's site, and then hope the 
customer remembers it.

 This is the reason why most Interchange users and consultants I know of still 
recommend just adding a link or a pop-up window on the Receipt page. You can 
record the order, deliver the receipt to the customer, and then explain very 
clearly that the customer still has to go through PayPal before their order 
will ship.

Can you please give more information about the UserTag ?
Is it global or local (catalog) ?
How do you set the scratch variable in the UserTag ?

Tom search the archives for for Stock Notification or stock_alert for
a perl script that you run from cron.  This code checks the DB
every X minutes based on the crontable and then send an
email when appropriate.

I just looked it up.. Here is the URL

Subject: [ic] Shipping depending on quantity and price
Message-ID: <20031226152342.51bce1fb.racke@linuxia.de>

Hello, Interchange users !

I got the following specification from one of my customers:

1-4 items $8 then $2 a item after that

That part is pretty easy:

GNDCOM: UPS Ground
        crit quantity
        min  1
        max  4
        cost 8

        crit quantity
        min 5
        max 9999999
        cost f [nitems] * 2

But additionally orders over $400 should get free shipping. 
It is possible to express this in the shipping database
without resort to custom tags ?

Bye
	Racke

Maybe a better job for the assign shipping tag?
Something like:

[seti isfree][subtotal noformat=1][/seti]
[if scratch isfree >= 400]
[assign shipping=0]
[/if]

The rest is already handled in your shipping file.
Just let this overide shipping on orders over $400.00

Hi Racke, this is a global usertag, located in
/usr/local/interchange-5/code/UserTag/billing_check.tag

This is my first usertag, so please be kind :-) Basically it
is pretty simple, but since i am using Date::Calc, I cannot
do this in page.  At the top, i delete all of the affected
scratch variables. Then, after some calculations with the
given dates, I just test for the results of some comparisons
and then set the Scratch variables if desired.

i.e.:

$diff = Delta_Days($ys,$ms,$ds, $y,$m,$d);
if ( $diff == 0 )	# today is new bill date
{
	$Scratch->{bill_it} = 1;
	$Scratch->{rebill} = 1;
	$Scratch->{next_bill} = $Tag->convert_date( { body => "$ys-$ms-$ds" } );
}

.. and this continues on for many different comparisons to
figure out exactly what is going on with these dates, and
so there are several different sets of  if .. elsif ..else ..
like that.

any ideas? thanks!

Yes, you may try to use $::Scratch instead of $Scratch in global usertags,
at least for modifying the scratch namespace. At least it is done this way
in the most usertags shipped with IC.

Why isn't this documented?  When I searched for the three terms image 
makesize imagesubdir with google, I only found your posting to this 
list.  Would this tag create the thumbnail the first time I tried to 
access it?  What I am trying to accomplish is that my client, the 
storekeeper, does not have to create and upload multiple sizes of his 
images.
thank you,

no error messages in error.log.

Perl is 5.8.0
Bundle::Interchange is up to date
Bundle::Interchange5 is up to date.
DBI::mysql is up to date
DBD is upto date

MYSQL queries through perl fine.

It has been suggested that there are permissions erros yet all
permissions on a new catalog look great.

any suggestions really appreciated. this is a live server & I had no
problems with 4.9.8 so would like to try to get back up soon.

Thanks,

C.B.

Ed and everybody else:

I have been waiting for the official 5.0.0 version and since this email
I have installed perl 5.8.2, and Bundle::Interchange5 and am now trying
to install the 5.0.0 release, and am receiving the same errors as if
there is something else amiss. Actually on the make test, all 6 tests
fail.

Any ideas?

Off the top of my head, here is what I do:
1. Make sure the sql tables arent already created, ensure you have 
permissions etc etc.
2. Ensure the table column definitions in catalog.cfg (or included 
files) are correct.
3. Remove all instances of files like <tablename>.sql from products/ 
subdirectory.
4. Ensure the column names in products/<tablename>.txt are in the same 
order as defined in the catalog, tab separated, and that there is no new 
line at the end. I found even a space would make interchange have a fit.
5. Restart interchange and pray. :)

Which version did you reinstall & from rpm or tar?

I have now tried 5.8.2 , 5.8.1 , 5.8.0
I am about to go back to 5.6.0 
& reinstall 4.9.8 which gave me no problems

It's documented in the WHATSNEW file that comes with every distribution.

Yep, that's exactly what it does.

You would only need to upload one (preferably large) image and way you go :-)

i was feeling the same way, as 4.9.8 seems to be where the
dependancy changed.  I reinstalled 5.8.2 and did it from tar
using all the defaults. that time it gave me no problems
whatsoever, although i did not try doing a 'upgrade'.  i just
installed ic 5.0.0 from scratch in the same dir as where 4.9.8
had been but deleted the entire directory so that everything would
be replaced.  then i just replaced the interchange.cfg and my
UserTags and installed a couple of other CPAN modules that it
complained about and did not have to run makecat again.

Use your browser to check the html source of an SSL page to see what path 
is actually being used for images. Verify that the path is valid and that 
is has the proper permissions to allow images to be served from that 
location. Work backwards from there.

if I put it in the Image_Dir it works

Message-ID: <014401c3ce24$24a08530$fe2a1cd3@co3041008a>

Have upgraded a server to 5.0.0 (previous 4.8.7)
RedHat Linux 7.3 Perl 5.6.1 mod_perl mod_interchange

New catalogues working OK though have noticed server resources used are more
than twice the amount of previous install per IC page load instance.
  PID USER     PRI  NI  SIZE  RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM   TIME COMMAND
24968 interch   15   0 33676  32M  2636 S     3.5  3.2   0:01 interchange

Previous version instances ran RSS between 10M and 14M

What is alarming however and prompting me to post to the list is what
happens if a visitor or user clicks the hot link tied to the red exclamation
mark image on the admin login page:
http://demo.icdevgroup.org/ic49/interchange-5/en_US/icon_error.gif

I am not sure what the link is for:
http://123123wherever22bogus.org/catalogue/admin/page_metaconfig.html?page=admin%2flogin&id=uekEqF36&mv_pc=6

but what happens on our server is that 5 interchange processes begin running
and eventually the page times out.

It is quite a load and a bit of a concern as most people will be quite
curious about clicking it.
The 5.0 demo at the icdevgroup website also hangs on this link.


P.S. Thanks for the Christmas present!!!

Message-ID: <015e01c3ce27$053ce870$fe2a1cd3@co3041008a>

Am in the process of upgrading some catalogues to 5.0.0 that have been
running nicely under 4.8.7

Have followed the UPGRADE instructions and all appears well.

However the 'Merge Metadata' process in the new UI is a little confusing.

Is there some more specific info about this process somewhere? (Have done a
fair amount of searching.)

How dangerous is it to 'Merge All' for older foundation catalogues?

When comparing data to merge what does it mean if the new value is 'Table'
the older value is 'text'? What if I merge these values? What else would I
need to look at updating?

What type of things should not be merged and left as is?

Thanks!

Just jump into it man. It's not that bad. I remember having to create an 
extra field or two in mv_metadata.asc.

Not sure about the text question.

Actually I have made so many modifications (like my own metatag 
structure in the templates) that I prefered to backup my old sites 
somewhere, rebuild each site using makecat. I then (using scripts or 
manually) copy important files over - but only as necessary to avoid 
replacing better? and newer code.

In fact I redid this recently and recreated 4 sites in one hour. It 
requires care, understanding and attention to detail.

I created my own usertag for use in Australia, and this broke during the 
upgrade. I guess it depends how much your own 'improvements' are in 
harmony with the developers' intentions.

I have tried to automate everything with scripts, but have found that a 
big jump like this needed thought and attention to each section.

You can't avoid the steps in the upgrade though, you just need to do it,

Hope that is useful.

Hello:

I'm running interchange 4.8.7 on FreeBSD 4.7, Perl 5.8.0 using the
foundation as the base for my site. I've added new fields, one of which is
user_initials in the userdb. user_initials is a required field that I've
added to the profile.order page. However, the checkout page allows the user
to proceed without entering their user_initials and the required
mv_shipmode. Anything I've missed besides adding the new field name to
profile.order?

Thanks

You need to Apply Changes (or restart interchange) when making any changes 
to etc/profiles.*
Also note that there is a separate profile for each payment time, so be 
sure to add your new order checks for all payment methods that you accept. 
Finally, add an [error ...] tag for the field label of your user_initials 
input so that the failed check can be displayed in context.

Ed, thanks for your reply. I thought I had already did that. Let me take a
closer look. BTW in my case, PO is the only method of payment since the
customer/s have an account. They also pay for their own freight/shipping,
though they choose the mv_shipmode from the drop-down menu. I'm trying to
stay within interchange using all the great tags it offers, though I'm
slowly ending up with a hodge podge. Thanks again.

Hey all,
I had a question on the order sequence. I'm using 4.9.8 and MySQL.
Sometimes we have gaps in the order sequence and I'm wondering why that
occurs?

No problem, just change the SQLDSN variable accordingly (for foundation
catalogs):

dbi:mysql:database=db0815;host=db.linuxia.de

Did you create the stock_alert.txt with tab-separted column-names? And if
you did that, then is the file uploaded in "unix" mode to the server?

Subject: [ic] setting up mySQL database
Message-ID: <004b01c3cee5$dc42bde0$63958f42@sbcglobal.net>

Hello list members,
Just switching over from Excel to mySQL database for the first time, and
having some trouble setting up a new database.

Using Interchange 5.0, Redhat 9.0.

I was given instructions for this as follows:
1)  1. log into mysql as root on the command line:
  mysql -u root -p

2)  type the password (currently 'pass') when prompted. The prompt then
looks
like this:
         mysql> _

3)  create the new database:
mysql> create database dbname;

where dbname is the name you want to give the database. If you want to see
the list of existing db's, type

         mysql> show databases;

The semicolon is part of the actual command you will type. Mysql accepts
multi-line command, so the semicolon is needed to tell it to 'run' your
completed statement.

4)  Grant access to the new db for a specific user. The username and
password can be new or existing, but if using an existing user, make sure
you use the same password as before, otherwise this statement will change
their password! :

 mysql> grant all privileges on dbname.* to username@localhost
identified by 'password';

...substituting the desired values for dbname, username and password. The
single quotes around the password are part of the actual command.

That's it! You can log out of mysql:

         mysql> exit;
--------------
When I tried to setup a new database for a new catalog, I was stumped.
After logging in, I entered:
mysql> create database inventory


and got this returned:
mysql> create database inventory
    ->

The instructions didn't prepare me for the ->.  I'm not sure what to enter
after the -> at this point.  I might have expect this line to read something
like:
mysql> database inventory created
---------------
Can anyone clarify this for me?

Also, in my attempts to create the database, it seems the names have
actually been created.  When I do this:
mysql> show databases;

I see my failed attempts in the list.  What is the command to safely remove
these failures?

Most gratefully,
Michael G.

if you do not end the statement with a semicolon (;) then mysql
sets it up to accept multiple lines until you end the entire query.

you should really do a little looking here:

Also, it's worth noting that the machine which hosts the mysql server needs 
port 3306 open. This is almost certainly the case already, unless firewall 
settings have been monkeyed.

Hi All,

What should the mysql server be named, I have just recently installed  mysql
on my server and it named iteself @localhost3306.  Is this correct should I
rename it?

Message-ID: <20031230193224.GB2339@host4.cmainteractive.com>

Hello all!

	I saw a message come through here mentioning an upgrade to the 
4.8 series to fix a security issue (I think) with mv_nextpage.  Is there 
a mention somewhere of what the security issue is?  I looked on the 
icdevgroup.org site but didn't see anything.  I am running a hacked 
4.8.6, I need to diff it against the stock 4.8.6 so I can reapply the 
patches to later pre-5 releases, but until then I will need to 
hand-patch the security fix into my installation.  First I wanted to 
determine my exposure to the issue.


Thanks,
Jeff

I read the developers resource notes on how to add the date to a page and it
is pretty straight forward, I'm just using;
[time]%A, %B %d, %Y[/time]

But I'd like to be able to show the date of the next Sunday of every week.
We have sales that end every Sunday and instead of having to manually change
the date every week I'm trying to figure out how to just display the most
recent Sundays date, if that makes sense.

Anyone know how to do this? I've checked some javascript tutorials as well
to see if it could be done with JavaScript but can't seem to find anything.

You should check the documentation for the time tag:

I<adjust>

If you wish to temporarily adjust the time for display purposes, you
can pass an adjust parameter with the number of hours (plus or
minus).

        [time]%c[/time]
        [time adjust="-3"]%c[/time]

Will display:

 Mon 01 Jan 2001 11:29:03 AM EST
 Mon 01 Jan 2001 08:29:03 AM EST

If the number ends in zero and has 3 digits or more, it is assumed
that the number is in timezone format (i.e +500) the local time or
from GMT:

        [time]%c[/time]
        [time adjust="-330"]%c[/time]
        [time adjust="-300"]%c[/time]

If you want to force the number to be just a number of hours, add the
hours parameter:

        [time]%c[/time]
        [time adjust="100" hours=1]%c[/time]

Will display:

 Mon 01 Jan 2001 11:29:03 AM EST
 Fri 05 Jan 2001 15:29:03 PM EST

If adjust is an Interchange time duration with a suffix of sec,
min, hrs, days, or weeks, that will be used.

        [time]%c[/time]
        [time adjust="2 days"]%c[/time]

Will display:

 Mon 01 Jan 2001 11:29:03 AM EST
 Wed 03 Jan 2001 11:29:03 AM EST

Note that the time zone does not change - you should either pick a
format which doesn't display zone, use the tz parameter, or manage
it yourself.

Subject: [ic] 'configure' cannot see /usr/local/bin/perl
Message-ID: <20031231053726.71909.qmail@mail.com>

Hi All

We use Mandrake 9.2. This installs threaded perl, and the executable is at /usr/bin/perl

We couldn't find a way to recompile the Mandrake perl to be non-threaded. So, we left that alone and installed a non-threaded version (which is default BTW) with the executable at /usr/local/bin/perl

We also ran 'updatedb' for good measure.

Next, we tried to install Interchange - /usr/local/bin/perl configure

However, the configure script did not ask us which location of perl to use.

Instead, it just found the threaded version at /usr/bin/perl and stopped the installation.

Question:  how can we get the 'configure' script to recognize the /usr/local/bin/perl location (non-threaded) to install Interchange ?

This would be so great to resolve. Thanks very much.

Will

Change your path for the user that is installing ic to include
/usr/local/bin/perl before /usr/bin/perl.

Message-ID: <00ec01c3cf64$fe44b220$63958f42@sbcglobal.net>

Hello List Members,
Interchange 5.0.

I recently purchased a perl program called "UsersOnline" that when installed
on a site allows the site owner to track real-time any visitors to the site,
with information including the visitors IP address, referring url, time on
site, which page(s) visited (and time at each page).

The script normally requires ssi, and it's recommended pages are changed to
.shtml extensions.  However, there is a workaround for those of us who don't
want to use .shtml extensions.  Some simple coding which allows the parsing
of .html pages for ssi is placed in an .htaccess file which lives in a
directory above the files one wishes to track.  The script then parses the
.html pages using ssi.

Each page tracked has, depending on the desired method, code placed in the
source of the page that looks like this:
<!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/pro/online.cgi?invisible=yes" -->

I've used this script on a non-Interchange site with a hundred pages, and it
works perfectly.  Even has a nice little .wav file that notifies my client
when a new visitor enters the site.

Question:   Before I add this code to any pages of my client's existing
catalogs, does anyone on the list know of any possible negative consequences
I might anticipate from doing so?

I know there are so many dynamic pages generated in the catalogs, but I'm
hoping that inclusion of the <!--#include virtual--> tag within
flypage.html, checkout.html, results.html, etc. might achieve the desired
result.

If not, does anyone know of a better way to create real-time tracking of
pages in the catalogs?

If I don't receive an answer before Friday, I wish you all a Happy and Safe
new year.

Best regards,
Michael G.

Will,

I remember Mike Heins or someone saying that changing the

#!/usr/bin/perl

at the top of each executable file in the /usr/lib/interchange/bin 
directory

to

/usr/local/bin/perl



will do the trick.

I can't remember if that was the end of story, but that would have to be 
pretty close to being correct,

Frank Reitzenstein.

Obviously the table doesn't exist. Is there a products/stock_alert.sql file in your
catalog directory ?

Hi list user,
I've a simple problem (not for me of course). I need to calculate the 
insurance cost for a shipping.
I use the weight method to calculate the amount of shipping and it works 
fine.
For calculate the total cost of the order I need to apply a percentage, 
with at least a minimum cost,  to the subtotal of the order.
I think to do this with perl code in the checkout page, but I don't know 
the manner to read the value of the
[subtotal], [salestax]  and [shipping] ic tags within the [perl][/perl], 
and of cource how to get out the result from there.
I had read a lot of documentation, but I don't find what I'm looking 
for. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Many thanks an happy new year to everyone.
Danilo

Hi Danilo,

I didn't know the answer until two days ago where I had to display the 
total cost on the receipt (which is inclusive of tax) but show what 
proportion was actually tax.

<tr>
    <td colspan=3>
        &nbsp;
    </td>
    <td>
        TOTAL GST ON INVOICE
    </td>
    <td align=right>
[calc]
sub subtotalgst {
     my($subtotal,$x) = @_;
$subtotalnumber=substr($subtotal,1,20);
$subtotalgst=$subtotalnumber*(1-0.909090909);
    return '$'.sprintf("%.2f",$subtotalgst);
    }
[/calc]
        [calc]subtotalgst('[total-cost]')[/calc]

    </td>
</tr>

I think the answer to your question is that the subroutine subtotalgst 
uses the [total-cost] already in use on the receipt.

Thats a good idea by the way. I have included insurance in the shipping 
calculation which is a modification of the ups_query tag.

I may actually display insurance separately if I can find a logical way,

Regards,

Frank Reitzenstein.

That's just the thing. I'm not sure where the $PATH info for the users is stored. I did global searches on the box (and of course got tons of results) but couldn't find it.

Where are the default path references for the users stored?

I looked in the 5.0.0 tarball distribution, but I couldn't find the location that you mentioned. 

We still haven't been able to even install Interchange. It's just untarred and waiting. We're getting hung up on the initial 'configure' step. 

-----------

3. Manually force 'configure' to see /usr/local/bin/perl

A possibility might be to manually change the 'configure' script to force it to see the /usr/local/bin/perl location.

Instead of running through the whole $TESTPERL routine, would there be a way to change the configure script to just say, "Use the following perl - /usr/local/bin/perl" and skip the whole TESTPERL thing ?

This actually might be more the way to go because it wouldn't disrupt any other scripts that use the default /usr/bin/perl

Thanks one and all.

Tom, Please reply your post BELOW the original message, and not on top of

That is what [handling ..] is for.

Also, the Levies facility allows you to have an infinite number of taxes
and charges. I think I will be putting Levies into the "mike" demo before
the next release.

 It probably won't work for you out-of-the-box, because Interchange delivers 
all pages via a small CGI "link" script. Apache won't re-parse its output for 
SSI, and I doubt your program could, either.

 However, all may not be lost. Interchange does come with Perl versions of the 
link scripts (vlink and tlink). Their only task is to talk to the Interchange 
daemon process and relay finished HTML back to Apache. You might be able to 
hack this script and make it call your program. Since the environment 
variables with all the request data won't have changed, your program should 
be able to work normally.

 The alternative is to modify your catalog's page templates to call your 
script. But you'll need to re-construct the environment for it there, becuase 
it'll be called within the context of the Interchange daemon, not Apache.

 Finally, Interchange does do its own traffic logging. The "Reports" tab in 
the Administration UI has it. There are some versions of Interchange that 
don't have the tab in the UI, but the underlying files are still there in the 
interchange/lib/UI/pages/admin/reports directory.
