Trouble with download controller


EGIBRASIL

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I have just downloaded and installed Downloads Controller v5.2 - MS1 lhaase0217 19 Aug 2005 and everything looks like being OK. :blink:

 

But when I try to make a fictive order to test the procedure, everything is right with freeshipper and free charger and the order is confirmed, but I can see no download button for my client to download his file product.

 

Can you please help me to fix this problem.

 

Thank you in advance. :thumbsup:

I am using it to some extent. I am having issues with it and it does not work like I want it to. My work around was to install "show no price if ="0" and "PDF Upload" I had to do some mods to them to position the download link the way I wanted it to show.

Now I am trying to fix the 1064 sql syntax error in order.php

I recently had the same problem, after checkout everything looks ok except no link and no download button. I had to search back and figure out what I had done to kill the contribution.

 

In my case I had enable cache (admin>configuration>cache) and it killed downloads controller. Once I turned it to false the buttons and links were back. I also found I had to clean out my "pub" directory and re-chmod "downloads" to 755 and "pub" to 777.

 

It works again. Hope you can find a solution as well.

Hi HSMagic,

 

And I first thank you for your answer.

 

I've checked my admin>configuration>cache wich is "false" already. I tried just to see turning it to true... Nothing happened.

 

I wonder why you're talking about the pub directory ? Because mine is empty and all the files I want to turn downloadable are archived in my download folder...!!! Is it the right folder or not ?

 

I'm actually in production on my local host so I can't see the Chmod for instance...

 

I'm keeping on searching solutions.

 

Thank you one more time for your help.

I am new to OSC myself and have had the same problems with the Downloads Controller contrib. Here are a few things I had to do to make it work:

 

HSMagic is correct, you must set your chmod folders "downloads" to 755 and "pub" to 777 and I had to save my files to my public_html/pub/ folder before the link showed up to download after purchase.

 

Two excellent threads on proper setup of Downloads Controller and Paypal IPN are - http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/lofiversion/i...hp/t195122.html and http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/lofiversion/i...hp/t177853.html

 

I?ve got everything working fine except for the SECURE downloads issue. My links show up whether a sale has been finalized or not.

 

Regards,

Taz
