Payal Returns to kernel (1) error

Wednesday 14 September 2005 10:16:17 am

When returning to the Site from a PayPal purchase, I receive the following error. I assume this is a problem with checkout as /shop/userregister does not create or enforce creating a user. Is this a bug or my misconfiguration? Please advise.

<b>kernel(1) error.

Returning URL = http://myurl/index.php/shop/orderview/6

Access denied
You don't have permission to access this area.

Possible reasons for this are:

You are currently not logged in to the site, to get proper access create a new user or login with an existing user.
You misspelled some parts of your URL, try changing it. </b>

For others that may come accross this problem. Adding an Else statement to the existing user check function as shown below will redirect a user who is not logged in to the login page and return them once logged in. An unregistered user who registers will lose the purchase flow but a few descriptive links in the /kernel/user/active.php can bring them back to userregister.php to continue.

line 56: /kernel/shop/userregister.php

if ( $user->isLoggedIn() )
{
    $userObject = $user->attribute( 'contentobject' );
    $userMap = $userObject->dataMap();
    $firstName = $userMap['first_name']->content();
    $lastName = $userMap['last_name']->content();
    $email = $user->attribute( 'email' );
}else{
	$module->redirectTo( '/user/login/' );
}
