monker Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I was trying to test out my checkout and I got the error that currency is not supported. So I changed Switch To Default Language Currency to true. I only have CAD everywhere. The prices then went to 0 and when I tried to change it back to false the prices are still 0. is there another configuration that I need to change now?

monker Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 More of a problem with your site connecting to oanda and xe. Any other message involved? I turned Switch To Default Language Currency back to true and eveything is fine again. I thought setting it to true was only when there where multi languages or multi currencies.

F22-Raptor Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I'm having the same problem. Here's what I get: Warning: The primary exchange rate server (oanda) failed for US Dollar (USD) - trying the secondary exchange rate server. Error: The exchange rate for US Dollar (USD) was not updated via xe. Is it a valid currency code? Warning: The primary exchange rate server (oanda) failed for Canadian Dollar (CAD) - trying the secondary exchange rate server. Error: The exchange rate for Canadian Dollar (CAD) was not updated via xe. Is it a valid currency code? My default currency is CAD. How do you Switch To Default Language Currency? My prices are not zero but they are messed up e.g. candian prices are less than US prices which is not right considering that the US$ is stonger than the CA$. Are these the correct currency symbols: USD, CAD? Thanks D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I'm having the same problem. Here are my findings: If I put "CAN" as the currency code in OC admin then my site shows the correct values bu won't link to PayPal...I get the "does not accept USD..." error when you try to process a pyment. When I change the Default Language Currency setting to true an then change the code....define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'CAD'); in the includes/language/english.php file then all my prices in the checkout show up as zero's, however, I'm abl to process the payment on PayPal. I then set Default Language Currency setting to false and then change the currency code in OSC Admin to CAD...this gave me the same errors already mentioned: Warning: The primary exchange rate server (oanda) failed for Canadian Dollar (CAD) - trying the secondary exchange rate server. Error Error: The exchange rate for Canadian Dollar (CAD) was not updated via xe. Is it a valid currency code? My conclusion...PayPal recognizes CAD, but oSC is setup and configured using the incorrect CAN currency code. Question - How can we reset or regonfigure OSC code to understand the "CAD" code instead of "CAN"??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 SOLUTION!!!! I just did one more test and it worked. I almost had it correct the first time. 1. In Admin use the following settings: Title: CAD Dollar Code: CAD Symbol Left: $ Symbol Right: Decimal Point: . Thousands Point: , Decimal Places: 2 Last Updated: 12/12/2008 Value: 1.00000000 Example Output: $30.00 = $30.00 2. Switch To Default Language Currency = true 3. change the code....define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'CAD'); in the includes/language/english.php file This should work...my store is based in Ontario Canada and only using CAD currency....(www.pureradiance1.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I change my currency code back to CAN from CAD, then my store front prices are zeros and my admin prices work again. There seems to be another php file that is configured with the wrong country code for Canada.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you have in the other language files, define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'CAD'); in the includes/language/english.php file define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'CAD'); in the includes/language/french.php file define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'CAD'); in the includes/language/spanish.php file I see 0 when I switch to French and Spanish.

jubez Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I got it working, it was really odd, I re-entered the information that was already there for the currency (shown below), then it confirmed my setting and went through. I guess when I put the settings in the first time it didn't update oscommerce, I just re entered the same thing... odd.. Thanks for looking I appreciate it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I followed this post, selected default, and downloaded the php file, change what was USD to AUD (australian) and now it all works fine. Thanks again.

neildono Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Thanks for this guys, I was having the same problem of all prices showing '0' in GB Pounds. Went into english.php and changed the language_curency to GBP, now all works fine. This is my second setup of OS Commerce and had no problem with this first time. Odd.

Eyals Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Solution: Open file includes/language/english.php or other languages you use define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'XXX'); In admin -> My Store -> Switch To Default Language Currency -> True Set Localization -> Currencies -> Set your currency to default. That should fix the 0 price in both catalog and admin side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
