The RC versions of osCommerce are Register Globals and Register Long Arrays 'off' compatible, due to a compatibility layer fix. PHP 6 will also have Magic Quotes 'off' and I'm not sure yet how that will affect the RC versions of osCommerce.
MySQL 6 is already released.

osCommerce MS3, Alpha 4, is not a production release and it certainly does not include a Gift Voucher capability.
MS2 can have those abilities added to it, but it is very old now and showing its age.
As to whether there will be an Alpha 5 and 6 - your guess is as good as anyones.

I have to approve this account before they can login
That's correct. All new customers are assigned to the Retail Group by default, but they can make an application to become a wholesaler when creating an account. You get notified of this application and you then have to approve it.
If your site is wholesale only then set up a Wholesale Group and make that the default for new customer sign-ups.

Add: Yanga WorldSearch to your spiders.txt file. If that doesn't work then ban the ip address by .htaccess.

None of you should be using anything later than v2.1d by Yesudo.
That version is perfectly stable, so I don't know why other people have been messing with it.

I'm guessing that you have an old .htaccess file in the 'admin' folder of your site which was used to password protect the admin folder on the old server your site was on, and that this is what is causing the Internal Server error.
Go to your web hosting control panel and use the Password Protect or Directory Protect link to apply new password protection to your 'admin' folder and it should overwrite any old .htaccess file.

products_stock is not a part of osCommerce(2.2 MS2 or any of the RC versions), and it's not part of any offshoot of osCommerce that I know of.
So it looks as though the version of Easy Populate you've installed is bugged.

My OSC version is MS2RC2
So why did you ignore the Install Guide which clearly said it is for use on osCommerce 2.2 MS2 (060817)?

but am not sure if it has anything to do with it
If it worked before and doesn't work now, then I think it's a 100% safe bet that you installed the add-on incorrectly and broke the website.

On the Pay Pal website you'll find a list of countries they operate in (allow orders from). I think it's a fairly good guess that they don't allow orders from the US Virgin Islands.

A blue border is the default colour shown when border=0 has been changed to border=1, or if that setting has been removed entirely.

Yes, USPS does keep messing about with their settings, which means the osCommerce USPS module requires fairly frequent updating.
Recently they've not only changed the names of some of the shipping methods but they have also added or subtracted hyphens between double-barrelled names and it was this that caused the most recent failures.

In the default osCommerce there is a "Per Item" shipping module.
You set a price per item and the shipping charged will be based on the number of items in the shopping basket.
No need to install another module or to use workarounds for something that already xists.

I'm trying to look for a contribution that is able to give shipping cost according to the no. of items purchase..but couldn't find it...would anyone has any idea?
please let me know...appreciate all ur help.
Thanks.

Dirt cheap at $1,000, and I do mean that. That's only around £500.00 for what will be a great deal of work.

What you have to realise is that Amazon spends Mega Millions on developing their website, with a team of highly motivated and very professional coders.
Far too many people come here expecting to be able to replicate that experience on their osCommerce website for free.
So the answer is - "Yes, if you've got the money to spend then it can be custom coded", otherwise the answer is "No".
"Limited PHP Knowledge" won't allow you to modify the Wish List add-on, which isn't very good anyway.

The problem is with Pay Pal. They updated their systems around a week ago, and being a USA firm they only checked it was working for US Dollars. Transactions in other currencies are failing left, right and centre.
They are aware of the problem and working on it - but as to when they resolve it, your guess is as good as mine.
They messed up big time!

I am working on this site for my client
Should you be taking on a "client" when you don't know the basic shipping modules?
1. Flat Rate shipping module = one rate for each full order (not per item)
2. Per Item shipping module = a flat rate charge per item irrespective of weight.
Both are standard osCommerce shipping modules and are found under Modules -->Shipping in osCommerce admin.

Yes, there is one. It's rather old and I can't remember the name of it now, but what it does is to provide three boxes with drop downs in them e.g.
1. In first box select car make.
2. Then is second box the drop down is populated with car models you can choose from, but only from that make.
3. Then in third box you get a drop down with years in which that model was made.
4. Click on one of those and you get an Advanced Search result limited to the pre-selection.
You'll have to search for it though.

If you get your Internet Merchant ID from Barclays Bank then it's likely that the server your site is on will have to pass a PCI Security Scan, which you have to pay for - even if you don't store card details on your site. Barclays are now requiring this of customers with Internet Merchant ID's.

If the Order Status says "Preparing Pay Pal IPN" then it hasn't been paid, and if they bypass part of checkout and go straight to checkout_success.php then the Order Status will not get updated to "Completed".

No, the Pay Pal Website Payments Standard module is nothing to do with the osCommerce Pay Pal IPN module, which can be found here:
http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/2679
My advice - don't use anything after the Novemner 2006 v1.4 download
This module was written for osCommerce 2.2 MS2 and not RC1 or RC2 versions.

Unless you are going to be regularly online to answer queries then having a Live Chat box which almost always says "Offline" is worse than not having any at all.

But My client wants to HTTPS path for whole site
Then you have a fool for a client.
Google, like it or not, is the most important search engine, and they do not give Page Rankings to https pages. So by making the whole site https your client is damaging their business.
On top of that https pages take longer to load and place more strain on the server because of the extra work required.

HSBC secure-epayment module
in General Add-Ons Support
Posted
Make sure that:
1. You send a session id to HSBC. "Force Cookie Use" should be turned off if you use HSBC.
2. When tesing make sure that the total purchase price, including postage, is less than 50 pence.
3. If your site uses a template it's likely that the session id may get lost before checkout_confirmation, so do a "View Source" to make sure the session id is present
4. If your server is based outside of the UK then the server time zone will be wrong, and the code need to be adjusted for it. One hour, plus or minus GMT is all that HSBC will accept.
