Dhananjaya Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I have added the latest installation, followed the instructions dilegently and am getting this error message from 2co: Parameter Error  Incorrect parameters were supplied, therefore this purchase cannot begin.  If you are attempting to purchase from a web site please contact the web site so that they can correct the error.  I am passing: /2co/buyer/purchase?TCOID=11f2e75f3b6567318985e7a212131600.....(truncated)  I did not upload items to the 2co database as we have over 2000 and are still adding, I did comment out the lines in pm2checkout.php as the instructions indicated. Any ideas? I would like to go live with the site on Monday.  Thanks for any insight.  glw <{POST_SNAPBACK}>  I came here to solve a similar problem.  In my case the error and possibly the cause may be different but they seem related enough to make the connection.  The error I got was: ************************* ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved ________________________________________ While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www2.2checkout.com:80/2co/buyer/pur...d+by+Mulapra.... (and goes on to include the whole product description)  The following error was encountered: ? Invalid URL Some aspect of the requested URL is incorrect. Possible problems: ? Missing or incorrect access protocol (should be `http://'' or similar) ? Missing hostname ? Illegal double-escape in the URL-Path ? Illegal character in hostname; underscores are not allowed Your cache administrator is webmaster.  ________________________________________ Generated Fri, 06 May 2005 15:37:55 GMT by tw-proxy-02.2checkout.com (squid/2.5.STABLE7)  ********************  The url of the page my cart sent me to on 2checkout is the same as the one identified in the URL in the Error message.  The obvious problem is that it is trying to send the whole description in the URL.  It doesn't always happen. I am getting sales. I hit the back key and tried again and it worked fine.  There are two unique factors to this purchase. 1. I went to My Account and edited my address and then continued with checkout. 2. This product has an unusually long product description.  My cart: Has product description in product listing installed but I don't see how that has anything to do with it.  My pm2checkout is from contribution 904, version is 3 Apr 2005 - Added Suburb 2.1a  I do not list my products in 2checkout.com  My guess at the moment is that somewhere in all the many settings on my cart and at 2checkout that I have something set incorrectly for my situation. For one thing there is no need for me to pass any product information whatsoever because it doesn't show up in 2co anyway since I am not adding my products to 2co. But I can't find what to change and where.  Perhaps we need a version that doesn't pass along product information or a way to turn that off.  What is the point of that anyway? Why put all your products in 2Checkout? What is the benefit?  If anyone has any clues please reply. Thanks Edward Quote I have moved on from oscommerce to magento and no longer monitoring this site.

I had the same problem, then went to the 2checkout.com website to figure it out. Their own demo generates the same error.

ynchan Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 hi, kinda new to this 2Checkout module, just wondering if there is a test account I can use to test the integration between osCommerce and 2Checkout? Â I remember in the previous version, I could simulate a payment using a test account and test credit card number. Â Now after installing the new 2Checkout contribution, I don't seem to be able to do it and I get the "Parameter Error" page as well. Sending an email to 2Checkout does not seem to help. Â Anyone, pls? Â THanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few types of fake numbers that don't work. I think anything beginng with 5 and also 12345667 etc doesn't work. I'm not sure if in your osc 2checkout mod you need to select test or not.

The hash a secret word is a sort of encryption. If you check hash you have to put the same secret word as you use in your 2checkout settings where you would indicate to use hash in 2checkout. I don't know if it will work without it or not; I use it. Quote I have moved on from oscommerce to magento and no longer monitoring this site.

That is, 2checkout.com definitely takes the money and sends you and the customer your emails, but the products do still stay in the customers shopping cart and the order does not show up in the customers orders.  The problem is in the autoreturn function which apparently depends on the cookie to match the customer up with their account and pending sale. What happens to a customer who has cookies dissabled is it returns them to the site ok but to the login screen instead of checkout_success.php. For customers with cookies enabled the return works fine, and the order completes fine, that is assuming your site is configured properly, e.g. you have a dedicated SSL for your domain etc.  This was of course a problem with the previous versions of 2checkout modules and there are solutions. My favorite solution is master password. When I get an email from 2checkout that I got a sale but there is no order in my system I just look up the customer and login into his account using master password and finish his sale by temporarily activating COD payment module which I have reworded the text to say "Payment Received" so the customer doesn't see COD on his order process.  There is a contribution called held orders which may deal with this better.  Personally I'm keeping my force cookies on. It is very common in ecommerce now and I'm not worried I'm losing sales. If I change my mind then I will just have to login to a customer account here and there to complete their order.

gtd_ny Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 (edited) Thanks to an inspired tip from a member (IlColosso), the 2Checkout V2 problem has been solved. The oscid session generated in the URL was preventing the passback parameters from getting back to osc. The solution is to force cookies, however this does not work on sites with shared-SSL certs. The demo mode bug has also been fixed, and I have updated the installation instructions. Hopefully it will be easier to get working now.  Download the updated contrib at: http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,904  Please reply here if it works or doesn't work. Thanks! <{POST_SNAPBACK}>  I installed the Mod 904, (2checkout v2.1a) and all seems to be working except the passbacks. I can make a purchase and go all the way to 2checkout confirmation - the transaction works because i get their email, etc. However, the page on 2co stays there. I have updated the return pages in "Look and feel" just nothing is happening. Needless to say no information is being updated in osc.  any ideas?
