This is a duplicate of an issue posted with the e-Commerce project - not sure where the problem lies

I want to enable members to pay for tangible items with Userpoints

Initially I installed e-Commerce v 5.x-3.4 and Userpoints 5.x-3.7 and Userpoints-contrib 5x-3.0

Although I set it up so members could redeem their points, on checkout they were able to complete when they did not have enough points, and no points were deducted from their account.

I tried out e-Commerce 5.x-4.0-alpha11 but had some errors (which may have just beeen not installing it correctly) and abandoned it for 5.x-4.x-dev - I also tried 5.x-3.x-dev but same problems, errors, maybe it wasn't installed correctly - I think I shall try it again because it contains the required payment module

I also installed Userpoints-contrib 5.x-3.x-dev and Userpoints 5.x-3.x-dev

Wow, it is really tricky to change versions of ecommerce, I had to delete tables manually, etc. (This thread was very helpful http://drupal.org/node/119432 )

Also, Userpoints_ecommerce requires the payment module which is not included in 5.x-4.x-dev so I copied it from the 5.x-3.4 package and I had to comment out all the credit card functions to get rid of errors (and I don't care about credit cards in this site)

One issue I have is that the only user who can make payment settings us user/1 - there are no permissions for payment, not even in enabled_modules - and the payment module is not included in ecommerce 5.x-4.0-alpha11 either

I don't know if this is an issue with the e-Commerce or the Userpoints-contrib module - or both

I am just looking for a recipe so that the userpoints are usable for ecommerce, points are deducted on purchase, and purchase is denied if there are not enough userpoints

Now on checkout I cannot complete - I get a message from Firefox that the server is redirecting in a way that cannot be completed -

I have not tried Ubercart, I thought using e-Commerce would be simpler, there are only 2 products.

Is payment by Userpoints no longer supported by e-Commerce, or is is an issue with Userpoints-contrib?

Site (in dev) is at flydigits dot netsperience dot org

I am back now to e-Commerce 5.x-4.x-dev and Userpoints_contrib 5.x-3.x-dev

From what i can Tell so far, the Userpoints Contributed modules no longer includes userpoints ecommerce, for some reason it didn't get ported along with the new version... maybe not supported anymore, which is an awful shame because honestly it worked great. and now i have to find another solution for my web site, unless i want to port EVERYTHING back to drupal 5.x uhhg no fun

I will keep checking back here in case a solution arises, but ubercart and userpoints does work well together, only problem is you cant use the user badges component for ecommerce with ubercart set up.

Ultimately i need a way to use POINTS ONLY on my site for purchases through ubercart, and each item purchased is basically a badge that gets appended to your profiles Inventory/Trophy case page automatically, these badges would need attributes of there own to be integrated further into our facebook game.

Any ideas or solutions to this problem would be appreciated.

@Caderial I used Ubercart Userpoints http://drupal.org/project/userpoints_ubercart for a D5 site http://flydigits.com/drupal/

- looks like it is conditionally ported to D6

Sorry for pinging the participants.

Now that Drupal 7 is out, there is no support for Drupal 5 and the
corresponding modules anymore. Therefore, I'm closing all old issues
which are still open.

I suggest you upgrade to Drupal 6 or 7 and figure out if you're feature
is still needed or the bug still exists and open a new issue in that
case.
