Looks like it’s missing the /store/ part again.
The ?userid=aaa part is short for /index.php?userid=aaa

Yeah, looks like I’m gonna have to double check those paths. I’m in the middle of a big upgrade of the DDS for my new album release so it may be a ways off.

Yea.. i wanted to use this for a release I have coming out on May 5th. Since I’m at the final screen.. is there a place I can just look at to get this version working?

Well, it should be going to:

http://myurl.com/store/?userid=38473fcc35d9d92d512c691efb6efcb9

That’s a lot of missing “/store/”s though, are you sure you have the variables set right in your config?

Try uncommenting that location line in your items.ini file:

# location = http://www.myurl.com/my-downloads/

Should be:

location = http://www.myurl.com/my-downloads/

Ok that worked… everything is redirecting perfectly……

Now the only thing I have to do is get the download to download correctly….

my filename is “cartelprepare4glory-mp3.zip”

did I set that up correctly?

#
#	Cartel - Prepare For Glory
#

id =		1
name =		Cartel - Prepare For Glory
type =		album
price =  	0.00
location = 	http://www.universalindie.com/my-downloads/
filename =	cartelprepare4glory
formats =	192k MP3
192k MP3 =	.zip

thumbnail = http://www.universalindie.com/images/cover-prepare4glory.jpg
thumbnail_link =

change the 192k MP3 line to:

192k MP3 = -mp3.zip

still nothing.. it seems like it’s gonna download then nothing…

I can’t get to the download page. What do you mean “nothing”? Blank page? 404?

ok…
1. From the “cart” screen.. I click on “download files”
screenshot – http://www.universalindie.com/images/1.jpg

2. on the next screen I’m greeted to a page with a url like:
http://www.universalindie.com/store/completed/?tx=c11014c1d4a4ce042b1b0568bbff6fff

That contains a link to download the files.
screenshot – http://www.universalindie.com/images/2.jpg

3 Clicking on the link to that page.. will redirect me to the my sites home page…

4. So I looked at the url when I mouseover the “download music link” it looks something like this:

http://www.universalindie.com/usrid=c11014c1d4a4ce042b1b0568bbff6fff

so I entered the following in my address bar to see what would happen

http://www.universalindie.com/store/usrid=c11014c1d4a4ce042b1b0568bbff6fff

and it takes me to a page that looks like this:

screenshot = http://www.universalindie.com/images/3.jpg

Now if I click on the “download” like at the top of that page the download starts.. but mousing over that link also shows the location to the file which defeats the purpose of all the things you’ve done to mask it.

I just can’t figure out why I can’t get this to work. I’m not new to this kind of stuff at all…

I’m wondering if it’s something strange with my server…..

I’m running WordPress but that shouldn’t effect this script as I planned to pull it into my site using the css equivalent to inline frames…

I’m RIGHT THERE.. to getting this to work.. I’m just not sure where to look….

The download link will show the filename, but it should also have some extra data on the end of it, like:

http://www.myurl.net/store/downloads/filenameblah.zip?id=1&buyer=c11014c1d4a4ce042b1b0568bbff6fff

Does it have that stuff?

UniversalIndieRecords

yes…
but i aren’t I supposed to get an email or something?

Actually since it’s going to be in an iframe.. the url is not that important… I just want to make sure that it does what it’s supposed to do from Paypal…

Oh and thanks for all your help. I know this is your “music” site not your tech support site….

so it’s appreciated…

You should get a transaction email from Paypal and an email from the store script when the user pays for something. You don’t get any notifications if the user paid nothing.

You may want to double-check notify.php to make sure the mail() lines around line #137 and #138 aren’t commented out.
