<i>12/13/2005</i> - I am proud to announce that Brookins Consulting has released a brand new kind of eZ publish payment gateway extension called, <b>eZ Authorize</b>.

<b>About</b>: eZ Authorize enables eZ publish to securely submit credit card payments from customers to the Authorize.Net credit card payment processing service.

eZ Authorize is a well implemented, feature rich, payment gateway and true eZ publish extension which provides eZ publish with the ablity to accept credit card payments from customers during checkout in an eZ publish e-commerce store.

eZ Authorize supports a new feature not available until now, the ability to allow your customer to choose from more than one payment method at checkout.

Sites which use the eZ Authorize extension can for example allow customers to choose to pay for products during checkout using paypal or credit card.

I already use Authorize.net in a minimal way (outside ezpublish), so I am interested to see what I can do with this extension. But its not high on my priority list.
So don't give up! This is worth it!

I just downloaded the Ez-Authorize contribution for the latest version of ez publish which at the time of this posting is 3.8.3 however; I was concerned it didn't work for the latest version, I collaborated with Graham at Brookins Consulting and he discovered that the version of php may effect the install process of the ez-authorize contribution they made. He quickly found the error and now it seems to work fine, so I will post the procedure incase others run into the same problem.

First off, during the install of ezauthorize when youre creating the workflow command in the installation instructions, if you suddenly get several errors like

PHP Warning:  Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument passed by value;  If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of [runtime function name]().  If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file.  However, future versions may not support this any longer.  in /hermes/data11/b2215/ph.d30063181/forum/ips_kernel/class_db_mysql.php on line 171

or during the saving of the site.ini.append.php file (assuming your in the workflow editor at the time) its due to the version of php that is running on your server. The version I was running was PHP Version: 4.4.2 it was the answer in an email Gram sent me below.

<b>"In new versions of PHP there is no need to indicate the variable $this
as passed by reference. This is done in the definition of a function. So
remove the *&* in &$this and the error message disappears."</b>

I will be uploading the new changes in the contribution area, so if you download the latest ezauthorize you should be good to go. If you have any questions concerning this solution you can contact Graham at Brookins Consulting they do a grand job and seem to be right on top of it.

Good Luck
Ez-Authorize IS as good as it seems to be...works great..

<i>@Chris</i>

Thank you for your kind words and even more so for your forum documentation of both the problem and solution to adding php v4.4+ compatibility to <b>eZ Authorize</b>. I enjoyed collaborating with you towards our combined goals....

<i>@All</i>

A much improved release of <b>eZ Authorize</b> (<i>v.1.3.0</i>) today has been completed, branched, documented, packaged, released, published and now promoted!

<b>Upgrade</b>

Everyone can get the very latest extension source via binary packages or subversion (svn). Because of the additional security additions I would recommend folks upgrade to the latest release as soon as possible.

The upgrade process should be both transparent and seamless. You may want to copy over the additional new settings into your settings files.

If you have any further problems please let us all know via this forum.

<b>Feedback</b>

I have heard from well over five different <b>eZ Authorize</b> users, customers and developers using <b>eZ Authorize</b> as a rock solid provider of Authorize.net payment processing within eZ publish for public ecommerce applications, many using it for several different eZ publish application / installation, while others modify it to suite their own individual needs and others as a basis for their own custom / unique / different payment gateway solutions.

With this positive feedback we aim to continue the further development and support of this extension.

<b>Wishlist</b>

Developers, customers and end users should look forward to the following features currently on our own <b>eZ Authorize</b> 'wishlist'.
- <i>Improved customer CCV2 explanation / image to the payment information template (font end)</i>
- <i>Replacement of hard coded shop account handlers with a flexible solution</i>

If you have a feature you would like to see added / provided by <b>eZ Authorize</b>, <i>just ask!</i>

Congratulations,

It's great to hear that eZ publish developers and users are beginning to see the value in using eZ Authorize for their own eZ publish commerce solutions in North America!

<i>Looking forward</i> the features highlighted in your 'wishlist'.

I too would like to see some of the additional features listed in the doc/TODO!
<i>http://pubsvn.ez.no/community/trunk/extension/ezauthorize/trunk/doc/TODO</i>

<i>* SSL ADJAX client support for true transparent payment
authorization without requiring a refresh of the end users page.

* Encrypted payment information object record storage

* SSL+ACL+Static IP+MAC Address Checking for remote transfers of encrypted
payment information records to be downloaded in a standard file format
(xml) and stored in encrypted form within an encrypted disk requiring two
unique gpg/pgp keyring stored on a removable usb disk (key).</i>

<b>Idea!</b>

<i>Name:</i> Order modification and Payment re-authorization via eZ publish Administration

<i>Description:</i> A web based administration gui to list and view payment information,
select a payment record to view individual record information and either ...

1) Allow order to be modified, totals updated, note regarding / describing the changes to order,
re-authorization of payment information and issue email alerts to both customer and admin roles.

2) (or alternately) Prompt for GPG/PGP Pass-phrase to decrypt and display the complete payment information (not cached unencrypted).

Allowing shop administrators to update an order after the initial order is placed and re-verify funds are available from within eZ publish.

This is very often useful when a customer calls a vendor after placing an order and wishes to make changes to the order before shipment and invoice/billing/debit.

Hi,

I'm trying to use your extension for a shop.

If I'm right, I had to move the ezcurlgateway.php into kernel/shop/classes.
I received the data from Authorize.Net and I made a copy of Login ID and Transaction Key in the ezauthorize.ini.append.php file.
There is one additional data I received that I had no idea what to do with, Transaction POST URL: https://test.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll

I setup the rest of the workflow without problem.

If I do to the e-shop and by something, when I submit the data for the credit card, I have an error "(TESTMODE) The merchant login ID or password is invalid or the account is inactive.".

Did I missed something?

Thanks

Greetings and Congratulation.

#1 - I don't believe you would need to 'move the ezcurlgateway.php' file into 'kernel/shops/classes'.

#2 - Please be certain you copy the file from the extension into your settings/override or setting/siteaccess/<siteAccessName> directory.

From: 'extension/ezauthorize/settings/ezauthorize.ini.append.php'

To: 'settings/override/ezauthorize.ini.append.php' or 'settings/siteaccess/<siteAccessName>/ezauthorize.ini.append.php'

#3 - Check for normal eZ publish + webserver user file / group permission for the setting / extension files and clear all cache(s).

<i>
> There is one additional data I received that I had no idea what to do with,
> Transaction POST URL: https://test.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll</i>

This is currently not available as a setting, a feature which perhaps should be added. You may modify this url string/setting in the file 'classes/ezauthorizeaim.php',

Search for the line "var $transact_url = 'https://secure.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll';" which you can modify as needed.

<i>
> I setup the rest of the workflow without problem.</i>

Great! These are simple steps, now well documented.

<i>
> If I do to the e-shop and by something,
> when I submit the data for the credit card,
> I have an error "(TESTMODE) The merchant login ID
> or password is invalid or the account is inactive.".</i>

I think the settings were not properly installed in the eZ publish 'settings/' directory.

cheers,

Thanks for the details.
I missed that one
" From: 'extension/ezauthorize/settings/ezauthorize.ini.append.php'
To: 'settings/override/ezauthorize.ini.append.php' "
but I still have the same error.
What did I missed?
Are the test code I received from authorize.net correct?
They are:
Login ID: cnpdev4444
Transaction Key: 623P88zxd6Pj3Pz6

<i>@J-A Eberhard</i>

First, please edit (<i>remove</i>) your keys out of your last post.

What type of an authorize.net account do you have? AIM vs SIM?

eZ Authorize supports AIM not SIM.

The error message is clear about the end resulting problem.
<i>"The merchant Login ID is invalid or the account is inactive."</i>

The account information provided run time to authorize.net service
is not the correct information <i>or ...</i> the account or extension
is in test mode. These settings are key and must match.

What version of php, eZ publish and eZ Authorize are you using?

These versions must match and might make a difference.

Also attempt to complete a transaction and check your php error logs for related errors.

Deprecated: <i>php <= 4.3.11 requires eZ publish 3.6.x which requires eZ Authorize 1.0</i>

Supported: <i>php >= 4.4.0 requires eZ publish 3.7.0+ which requires eZ Authorize 1.3.0+</i>

I think Brookins Consulting offers hands free professional support for this extension as well.

Don't worry, the keys are the test account provided by Authorize.net.... (hackers, useless to test it, you will not be able to buy anything...)
eZ publish is 3.8.6 on php 4.4
How can I know if this is an AIM or SIM ?

You can enable verbose debugging by first enabling the 'eZ publish' debug output and then enabling the 'eZ Authorize' debug. (see example setting below)

From file: '<i>settings/override/site.ini.append.php</i>'

[DebugSettings]
# DebugOutput=disabled
DebugOutput=enabled

From file: '<i>settings/override/ezauthorize.ini.append.php</i>'

[eZAuthorizeSettings]
# Extension Debug
# Debug=false
Debug=true

Enabling this debug output will display the transaction key, merchant login, md5 secret word, transaction hash sent and returned to authorize.net

Cheers,

<b>Test Accounts are different in behavior than paid accounts</b>

I have also encountered similar breakdowns as described above (regarding fatal error, merchant settings / keys / mode) using the basic (free as in 'free beer') developer / testing account which has not been activated (paid fees) to allow you to switch from 'test' mode to 'live' mode.

something I've noticed ... hth

<b>The basic difference between AIM and SIM payment gateway integration method</b>

AIM = <i>Transparent</i> to user during checkout

SIM = Requires <i>redirection</i> to secure external web page during checkout

eZ Authorize only supports the AIM Authorize.Net API, as it is the preferred standard.

I am sorry I did not reply again sooner.
<i>
>Did anyone able to run this extension with the demo account?</i>

I know of at least one use of eZ Authorize in production now,
validating credit card transactions as we speak.

<i>
>Could someone running it with a live account having a look at my settings?</i>

I can myself can only do so much to troubleshoot via a forum.

I would urge you to contact the creator of eZ Authorize for further support directly.

It's just that hands on touch that seems to make all the difference.
