Auction.module not updating from Current Bid

Cannot reproduce this problem.

Hi,

I get the same problem it seems. The current bid line doesn't get updated and keep showing the original price. When a higher bid is accepted by the system, it doesn't seem to update the current bid value. Also, because the highest bidder is never recorded, every bid greater than the original price is accepted.

Here's the correct screenshot. Sorry.

Here's the history screenshot.

i am having this same issue. let me know if you would like to see the page we are testing this from.

thanks.

ah ha! i messed around a little bit and i see how to work around this. originally the price was set to $90. i changed it to $0 and then now the highest bid shows up each time.

this is a bug IMHO.

thanks again.

So how do you assign a starting bid price?

Have same problem. If set starting price to zero then new bids update the current price. If you set a starting price then every new bid does not alter the current price.

How did you manage to fix this?

thanks

4.7 code is fixed. So technically this is a 4.6 issue now.

Does that mean this fix will be applied to 4.6?

No, I've just patched cvs version ready for 4.7.

There is a separate code version for 4.6 and this issue will remain until I or someone else get a chance to review/fix it. So I've left the ticket open and reassigned to "4.6"

I have just added this line aftger line 314 to the auction.module and it seems to work well ... not thoroughly tested though

db_query('UPDATE {ec_product} SET price = %d WHERE nid=%d',$edit['bid'],$edit['nid'] ) ;

this is the diff ready to be patched:

*** 312,317 ****
--- 312,318 ----
function auction_bid_save($edit) {
global $user;
db_query('INSERT INTO {ec_auction_bid} (nid, uid, bid, created) VALUES (%d, %d, %f, %d)', $edit['nid'], $user->uid, $edit['bid'], time());
+ db_query('UPDATE {ec_product} SET price = %d WHERE nid=%d',$edit['bid'],$edit['nid'] ) ;
drupal_set_message(t('Your bid of %bid-amount has been placed.', array('%bid-amount' => payment_format($edit['bid']))));
}

Thanks @enriquemg, committed to 4.6 with credit.
