Hello amin007,

I changed the settings but still the same, the downloaded file is corrupted.

( WP eStore Settings v 4.2.7 )

Hello amin007,

strange.. I tried it on a Mac with Safari and then it works correct!

I tried it also on a Win comp with Firefox and it works correct!

It seems a IE problem. I hope it helps you to find an answer.

Hi, We will need to take a closer look at what is happening on your site. I have sent you a site access request via email. Please let me know if you do not receive this email.

Hello Ivy,

I updated the e-store version and tried different settings. The download now works correct in IE with method 6.

BUT…. now the download link doesn’t show up on the Thank You page

[ wp_eStore_transaction_result:end ] is on that page.

Before it works but not now

site access is the same if you need to take a look

Hi, There is an issue with PayPal’s enhanced checkout. You can read more about this here:

PayPal Enhanced Checkout Issue

Are the emails and everything else working like it should?

Ivy,

I don’t changed any settings in the paypal account. Before this update it worked.

E-mail is OK with the link, only the link in the “thank you” page is gone.

From PayPal I get with the button to the thank you page like before.

PayPal’s post payment data sending behavior has changed a bit with the whole new enhanced checkout. You can read more here:

PayPal Enhanced Checkout Issue

Anyway, this change is causing the links to not appear on the “Thank You” page but I am adding an alternative option to take care of this issue. I am adding the option to use PDT (Payment data transfer) feature of PayPal to get the payment data on the “Thank You” page so the plugin can display the links after it verifies the purchase.

Hi,

I seem to be having a version of this problem which started when I upgraded the plugin to version 6.2.4. The files on the server have not changed and I can still open them when I download them directly, but the encrypted download links are somehow corrupting the file.

In my eStore Settings under Download Validation Script Location, it now says this:

Warning: file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(../../../wp-content/plugins/wp-cart-for-digital-products/download.php) is not within the allowed path(s): ([mypath]:/tmp) in [mypath]/wp-content/plugins/wp-cart-for-digital-products/eStore_general_settings_menu.php on line 633

That value has not changed since I upgraded, and I tried deleting the value and saving the settings as suggested in another thread on this topic but the problem persists.

I’ve also tried lots of the suggestions on this page and those it links to but none have helped:

WP eStore Download Methods – Change Encrypted Download Methods

Any other suggestions?

If this helps, here are the contents of my download_manager_debug.log for a corrupted link:

[12/20/2011 3:50 PM] – Status : Unresolved DL file path = [my_url]/wp-content/plugins/wp-cart-for-digital-products/downloads/9781931520355-McHugh.epub

[12/20/2011 3:50 PM] – Status : Resolved DL file path = [my_path]/wp-content/plugins/wp-cart-for-digital-products/downloads/9781931520355-McHugh.epub

[12/20/2011 3:50 PM] – Status : Dispatching DL method = 1

[12/20/2011 3:50 PM] – SUCCESS : DL completed with no server-side errors detected.

And I noticed there are a series of errors written into the top of all my downloaded files, which I presume is what’s making them fail to open. The lines all look like this:

Notice: Use of undefined constant ESTORE_DLVS_HI1 – assumed ‘ESTORE_DLVS_HI1’ in [my_path]/wp-content/plugins/wp-cart-for-digital-products/download.php on line 3

I found this other thread having to do with open_basedir issues, here:

Encryption issues

But my host isn’t going to turn off open_basedir either, so that’s not a viable solution for me. I guess I’ll try looking into download.php and try to hack it. If you know of another way, please let me know.

Would it be better for me just to downgrade to the previous version of the plugin?

[Michael DeLuca]

Aha! Changing the Download Method in the eStore Addon Settings to Method 6, Fopen-1M-Closed-Nozip seems to have solved the problem.

What method were you using before?
