AbleCommerce Shopping Cart Software

Hi,

I'm tying to integrate the google checkout into a UK based store. The store currency is set to GBP and no other currencies exist in the admin area (I deleted the USD). My google sandbox merchant account is also in GBP. However when I try to use the checkout I get an error :-

# Google Checkout Failed.
# Google Checkout Response.IsGood = False
# Google Checkout Error Message = The currency used in the cart must match the currency of the seller account. You supplied a cart with USD and the seller account is associated with GBP.

The xml being sent to google is :-

Can anyone tell me where the setting/parameter is that I need to change to process the transaction in GBP?

Thanks

Hello,

You may not be using the 7.0 final release because this bug was fixed before final. Please upgrade to 7.0 final to get this fixed.

Hi,

I think I am on the latest release, I only purchased the software last week. In the about section through the Admin panel I get

PLATFORM: ASP.NET
VERSION: 7.0
BUILD: 9879

with

CommerceBuilder.GoogleCheckout: 7.0.9632.0

Is this the latest?

Yes it is the latest build.

How many currencies do you have in your store?
What is your store's default currency (base currency)?

The store currency is set to GBP and no other currencies exist in the admin area (I deleted the USD).

OK ... I got the answer...
I will have a look at it in detail

I found this article in the google help pages but it looks like a hard coding solution?

http://checkout.google.com/support/sell ... opic=12164

I'm guessing the checkout should pick up the store currency dynamically.

Should I report this in the defect system or is it correct to leave this on the forum for resolution?

I reviewed the GoogleCheckout implementation again and it seemed to be all right.

Here is something to try.
In your Checkout/Google/GoogleCheckoutButton.ascx.cs
please add this line before this line If it solves your problem it means the fix included in 7.0 final was not complete.

Thanks - this line is required so it looks like the fix was missed. However when applied it introduced a new problem in line 42, my wife (who's far more intelligent than I on these things) corrected it with by putting the Convert.ToInt32 on lines 42 and 43.
Not sure why this happened but the combination of this and the additonal line of code you gave above resolved the issues and the transaction now works.

N.B I also discoved than Google checkout will feedback to able commerce in Sandbox mode if you change the callback API to http rather than https. This allows testing to continue before installing the SSL certificate.

Thanks for the help above.
