Credit card data security

Go to admin/store/status - there will be a message about how encryption is not configured, with a link to the configuration page.

It would help if you would give a link to that documentation you quoted so it can be updated to make it clearer.

I am having this same issue, and when I find myself on the credit card security settings page, I cannot modify the text field that is supposed to be edited.

It is fixed with the message: "Not configured, see below." in red

I have this SSL protected directory set-up, and the permissions are open. However, I cannot enter the directory path into the textfield, as the textfield is not allowing me to enter any characters.

Please ask general support questions on ubercart.org, not here.

ok, this has been done. http://www.ubercart.org/forum/support/5605/need_help_credit_card_setting is where i posted the issue. i just posted here because this is the closest post i could find anywhere to the problem I am having. thanks anyways!

Hell there,
I tried to follow Ubercart's guideline "...specify a folder that is outside of your document root (i.e. not in your www or public_html directory) where the module can create a key file to encrypt credit card data."

Since I can't directly create a directory outside my root, just to test my ecommerce site out, I let the module create a key file under sites/default/files (which is not recommended in live mode). It's working just fine.

Then, in order to make private data such as credit card encryption keys non-web-accessible, I followed Godaddy's written instructions on how to create a false domain and set it as primary and then add the actual domain. I set the path to point to a subfolder (containing my drupal installation) within my root directory.

But when I checked my site, I get the homepage w/ some elements missing and none of the links work including login and menu. All I get is Internal Server Error.

Worse, I can't even log in as an administrator to my drupal site.

Is there something else I need to do to configure my site settings to make it work?

I've looked everywhere but didn't find anything regarding setting changes that need to be done after the above changes in domains. My site's been down for two days now and I really need it up n running ASAP.
Please help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I struggled with the original issue mentioned in this post, that is, "But i can not find the filepath textfield so i can specify the folder for the keys.". The issue is that the error message, "Not configured, see below." appears in red inside the textbox where you are supposed to mention the folder name for the keys! It took me a while to realise that the box surrounding this error message was the textbox where we are supposed to enter the path! Hope this helps someone as I spent more than 2-3 hours trying out various things!!!
