Hi There,

We have a store that is being used for a very very small number of transactions. The site is on V3.0A5 but unfortunately the PayPal payment module has stopped showing in the store. When you go to checkout, you get to where you select the payment module and nothing is there.

In the admin, the module is set to active and I can't see any immediate reason why this can't be seen.

Is there a way to upgrade the V3.0a5 store to the latest V3 version of osCommerce. It's a fairly standard install with a custom skin but I need to make sure it all goes through ok. Alternatively, is there a quick way to get the payment module to work?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Kind Regards
Lewis

@Lewissellers,

Your store SHOULD NEVER have been created using an ALPHA version of osCommerce which has since been abandoned. Further, v3.x is still atleast a year away from a production ready release.

I suggest you delete your current site and download v2.3.1 to create a new store.

Hi Chris,

If I was to recreate the store on v2.3.1, would I be able to import the database in from the current version? I need to get this transferred without spending hours and hours recreating it.

It's weird as the PayPal payment gateway worked. It's only a private site for sales.

Kind Regards
Lewis

@Lewissellers,

You can integrate the data from your old site to a new site, however you cannot use the import function as there are database differences. Manual integration is the only solution.
