Not working 404 please help!!!

[wordpressdesign]

I am familiar with estore having used it already. Anyway, this problem is really weird. I have installed the plugin on a site for digital download. After the transaction, I get the money, but nothing else happens, i.e. no emails to either me or the customers, no download link etc.

I have noticed that if I enter:

http://www.yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-cart-for-digital-products/paypal.php

I get a 404.

If I enter:

http://www.yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-cart-for-digital-products/readme.txt

it opens the file no problems!

So basically the plugin does not work because it can’t even access its own php files?

If I run any other php file inside ALL my other plugins, on the same site, they all work, i.e. there is access.

I have double-checked that the wp-cart folders are 755 and the files are 644. What else can I do to fix this???

Most likely a .htaccess file or some other permission related issue on you hosting is preventing the “paypal.php” script from being executed.

Please do a simple test for me. Create a test file called “test.php” place the following content in this file:

<?php

echo "Hello World";

?>

Now upload this file to the eStore directory and try to access it from the browser. Can you see the “Hello World” or does it give you a 404 too?

Still a 404 even with Hello World, but only if placed in the estore folder, not from any other plugin folder.

I have solved it anyway, entirely deleting the estore plugin and re-uploading it.

Why it happened will remain a mystery I guess, since I’m sure it wasn’t an hosting problem. Happy anyway
