Cs-Cart & Multi-Vendor 4.2.4 With Paypal Ipn Support Released
Posted 04 December 2014 - 09:34 AM #22
Hi!
We’re happy to introduce you to another minor CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor release.
Meet CS-Cart 4.2.4 and Multi-Vendor 4.2.4!
In addition to improvements and fixes (see the changelog), this version includes PayPal IPN support and a newRealex payment method.
PayPal IPN
We have been working closely with our colleagues at PayPal to make your experience with PayPal in CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor 4.2.4 even better.
IPN, which stands for Instant Payment Notifications, is PayPal’s message service that sends notifications when a change in a transaction occurs. In 4.2.4, we use PayPal IPN to synchronize order status in your admin panel with the corresponding transaction status at PayPal.
For example, when a PayPal transaction is complete, your store will receive a message from PayPal IPN that will update the associated CS- order’s status. In the PayPal add-on settings, you can choose how PayPal statuses should correspond to the ones used in your store. Handy!
Upgrade
Within a week, all store owners should see the update in their admin panels’ Update Centers. If you don’t want to wait, you can download the package manually from your Help Desk account’s File area (you must have an active upgrade subscription).
Admin, Bug Tracker is not updated yet. 4.2.4 is still showing in development.

The new Paypal methods does not work on localhost. During the tests returned a blank page instead of going to paypal site.
Fresh installation, nothing changed or added.
Thomh, can you please take a look to what URL you was redirected and what error is in the log.
The problem may be in file permissions, the paypal scripts are now located in the app/addons/paypal/payments folder

Error occurred: post upgradeUnknown column 'company_id' in 'field list' (1054): SELECT processor_params, company_id FROM cscart_payments WHERE processor_id = (SELECT processor_id FROM cscart_payment_processors WHERE processor_script = 'paypal.php')

Oops!! Sorry that page must have moved.Oops, something went wrong (Forbidden). Please try again.There are no 3rd party add ons on this particular site. Have tried to disable some of the add ons from CS but it still does not work. Did the Visual Editor get turned off or is it not supposed to work any longer?
In regards to the error that ThomH posted, what should the permissions be set at for the app/addons/paypal/payments folder? I am guessing 0777/0755.

Me too. One site I have went very smoothly. My other site encountered this same issue.Had the below error when upgrading, can someone explain what is going wrong?
Error occurred: post upgradeUnknown column 'company_id' in 'field list' (1054): SELECT processor_params, company_id FROM cscart_payments WHERE processor_id = (SELECT processor_id FROM cscart_payment_processors WHERE processor_script = 'paypal.php')

On this page:
http://kb.cs-cart.com/paypal
You say to do the following:
Instant Payment Notification - off
Payment Data Transfer - off
Auto Return for Website Payments - off
Return URL - blank
Since this information and page is pre 4.2.4 and IPN implementation should we now turn some of those options on in our Paypal configuration?
Can you please update the support page to show correct 4.2.4 IPN implementation and settings in Paypal.
Thanks,

The link in the browser is the main storefront link with a blank page, nothing in the error log. Stops when tries to connect to paypal page, the text "connecting to paypal..." does not appear, the issue appears before it. Not clear why happens, on the live test site the issue does not appear.
All other previous version are ok on localhost.

Have you had any luck since your last posting?Had the below error when upgrading, can someone explain what is going wrong?
Error occurred: post upgradeUnknown column 'company_id' in 'field list' (1054): SELECT processor_params, company_id FROM cscart_payments WHERE processor_id = (SELECT processor_id FROM cscart_payment_processors WHERE processor_script = 'paypal.php')
I was wondering if any addons needed to be uninstalled or if I should just try again.

I can't wait to the next upgrade! (4.3)

We have three direction of performance optimization we are working at the moment:
- SQL queries, at the moment we achieved ~70% decreasing of heavy queries execution (get products on the category view). Also we are optimizing SQL queries we will decrease the number of queries as much as we can
- Cache improvements- we are going to cache everything that only possible. Main content, product blocks etc. This has decreased the CPU load for ~30% on light VPS server with 5 concurrent queries.
- Client side optimization (how faster the page is loaded in the browser), improve our scores in Google page speed (minimize js, remove some fonts, etc)
The 4.3 would be really faster!
We will cache the main-content block completely so products options will be included.
I hope we will release a public Beta in the end of January 2015. But these are just hopes at the moment.
We won't release until we are sure it is really amazing:)
