Description
My auction setup is the following: 100 euros startting price, 5 euro bid increase and minimum increment and some large values (1000 euro and 100%) for the upper limits. If the first bidder enters a value of 5 euros, the bid is accepted and the product costs 5 euros! Did I misinterpret anything or is this a really critical bug? Has anyone else tested this scenario?
#1
P.S. The validation works perfectly from the second bidder and on.
#2
Hmm. Sorry, I can't replicate this. Might you have installed any other Ubercart add-ons which might be fiddling with the price like UC Auction does?
Has anyone else out there had a problem like this?
#3
That's true. I have several plugins installed. I also had the issue with nodewords (metatags) and I had to disable it. Is it safe to use it with only the plugins that come with ubercart?
BTW do you have in mind any common candidates that might be causing the problem?
#4
The conflict between Ubercart and Meta Tags is known; see #364682: Conflict with Ubercart / Ubercart Auction.
I have no idea what other modules may be causing this problem, though. It's pretty hard to say. Sorry.
#5
If it really is a module conflict, one way to figure out what the problem is would be to start deleting modules, either one by one or in small groups, and keep trying to place a first bid that's too low. If, after disabling a module, the problem goes away, then we can assume that that module was the source of the conflict. It's a bit of a pain, but it should help us find where the problems lie. Start by disabling the other non-core Ubercart modules first.

Fisrt of all thanks for your reply. I will try to track the conflict as soon as I find some time. I will probably return with more info!
#7
I didn't manage to reproduce the behaviour as well. I did disable the Taxes module and disabled and re-enabled Fee module meanwhile, but I am not sure it has something to do with the issue. Consider it closed for now and I will get back only if I notice anything unexpected regarding the issue.

Okay then.
