I have setup my first OSCOmmerce site and i thought i had finished and
was rather pleased with myself until somebody tried to buy something
and got the error: 'Your session has timed out, please log in again.'
so i cannot complete the payment and the credit card payment doesnt
work either.

I uninstalled the module and reinstalled it and it started working
however it soon reverted back to 'Your session has timed out, please
log in again.' This is the case for several people in several diiferent
environments however Paypal say it has nothing to do with them and must
be Oscommerce can anyone help?????

Stephen - session timeout is normally handled via PHP - I dont know if
osCommerce modifies this or not - perhaps a grep for the word "session"
in their PHP files will help. Also look for anything to do with cookies.
Cookies have timeout settings and are part of the session.

osCommerce shouldn't be a problem if you have a clean install as other
people are using it.

One thing to look at however is your sites php.ini file and make sure the
sessions are long enough in there. If you use a commercial linux host its
probably in /etc or somewhere like that

mine has -
; Document expires after n minutes.
session.cache_expire = 180

which is the default I think. The section header is [Session]
There are other settings in there that could affect it too. DONT modify
anything in this file unless you know what you are doing. You may need to
re-start PHP for changes depending on your hosts installation.

If people start the order sequence then go out for dinner before
completion - almost anything could timeout of course. Or it could just be
they dont have cookies enabled properly or they are being filtered by a
firewall or hidden by a proxy?

all things you could check out.

When you installed the store, you will be have been asked whether you
wanted to store sessions in files or the database. We always choose
"database" when setting up stores for clients - could be worth a try to
see if that solves the problem.

Howdy,

Oscommerce has also apparently lost their certification status with
Authorize Net. See http://www.authorizenet.com/alliances/carts_cert.php to
pick something safer to use.

Also avoid PHP solutions if at all possible. PHP looks easy but is only a
bastardized version of Perl and doggy slow for execution. You want a
Windows 2003 server and ASP code. Better yet is a compiled ActiveX
solution.

BTW, your site is also a "Cookie Monster". There's no excuse for requesting
a cookie for every image on a web page. A shopping cart that requires
cookies to work will also cost you a significant number of sales.
