That's quite a quick release, I was already awaiting it since you mentioned it would be released on March 4th.

I'm going to apply it anyway since I am still in the "upgrade mood" since I upgraded to 4.6.2 a week ago.

[herber@wirehub.nl]

The PayPal Login module in the backend links to russian pages of PHP.net, perhaps those should be changed to English manual pages.

See here.

I would also like to see which of these I currently haven't got configured on my server, because I have no clue what I'm missing, as CURL is installed and the functions should be available by default I believe.

Thanks for fixing.

It seems php5-curl was installed, so installing that fixed it.
Thanks a bunch, but perhaps a check telling the user what needs to be installed would be more clear.

Does the Login with PayPal also create a user in X-Cart with the right address/email etc.?

[mixon]

Yes. A new customer account is created with email provided by PayPal ( + corresponding billing address ).

Ksenia,

I am running 4.5.4. I took your warning about the USPS change regarding First Class Mail from your blog post and made sure your Option #1 "...select checkbox 'Automatically enable new shipping methods from shipping server response'" was enabled on my store.

Sure enough First Class mail method is no longer being returned to my customers, and yet no new shipping methods have shown up in my list of USPS methods. Anyone know what is going on? What are others seeing?

(I have filed a support ticket already) just providing the community some info and wanting to know if it is just me.

Thanks

I just updated my live store and cannot get PayPal Access to work.
I entered the right 'secret' and 'client id', the paypal popup shows, I can login with a valid PayPal account, it asks me to give permission to my website to get certain data, I can agree to that and then return to X-Cart..
but it gives a small red error on top: 'Error: Login with PayPal authorization has been failed'.

I cannot find any errors in the X-Cart logs.
How can I help find the errors to fix this? I would like to have the PayPal Access functionality.

Apparantly, it is working.
However, Qualiteam needs to improve the error message: an account with that paypal email address already existed. X-Cart needs to give a proper error message to the user that an account with that email already exists and THAT is why it is not working.

I'm confused by this announcement, I don't see any X-cart 4.6.3 patches in the support helpdesk file area. And there doesn't seem to be an upgrade pack yet either? I am currently running a TEST only version of 4.6.0 to see if it's worth the trouble upgrading.
