Hello,

I am currently dealing with "downloadable" products in a test environment. The problem is I am using "Pay by Check or Money order" as a payment option and am getting the following errors:

1. I am given shipping options during checkout for a downloadable product.
2. The product is available for download immediately during checkout even though I haven't received the check or money order.
3. When I click to download the product (which I shouldn't be able to do), I get a "can't find file error" even though the file is physically there.

Thanks for the reply,

No, I have not looked at details yet. I was trying to "eliminate" sequentially - number 1 (Why was I given shipping options for a downloadable product during checkout?)

Hi Robert,
Can you post the entries you have in your vsadmin/includes.php file please

For example you should have something like this:

$digidownloads=TRUE;
$digidownloadmethod="filesystem";
$digidownloadpattern="/home/richard/mydownloads/%pid%.zip";
$digidownloadsecret="fejojdojfojfoijfojqoijqoeirjfo";
$digidownloadwarn=TRUE;
$digidownloademail="Your products can be downloaded for one more day by <a href='https://www.yourdomain.com/latedownload.php?ordid=%orderid%&pass=%password%'>Clicking Here</a>%nl%Or alternatively,%nl%<a href='https://www.yourdomain.com/latedownload.php'>Click Here</a>%nl%'. . . and enter the order ID %orderid% and password %password%%nl%%nl%";
$digidownloaddays=1;

and your downloadable products would be a zipped file in the directory 'mydownloads' and that directory should be outside the public_html directory, and the product reference would be named the same as the zip file (without the extension), and you have entered A in the download field of that product

There's no feature to offer a 'pay later' method with a downloadable product, but if you follow the above instructions and make sure the download directory is outside the root directory and ensure the correct path is defined in the vsadmin/includes.php file it should function correctly.

If you need any further help just click on my name and send me an email

Hi Phil,

I did as you suggested in your first post and reviewed the download description document. Also, I didn't know about the 'pay later' issue which seems to be the whole problem. I'll remove it as a payment method...too bad.

Thanks for all your help!
