Just a couple of thoughts...

I quickly scanned some of the code on the git, and thought of two possible issues:

1. the URI interface, through my experience only works with BTC, and even then only if installed a certain way. The scheme command looks like: (bitcoin:
[;version=1.0][?amount=][?label=

in answer to number 1) the only lines of code i can see that do the JSON calls are
Code:
$PPCoin = new jsonRPCClient('http://'.$this->config->get('PPCoin_rpc_username').':'.$this->config->get('PPCoin_rpc_password').'@'.$this->config->get('PPCoin_rpc_address').':'.$this->config->get('PPCoin_rpc_port').'/');
so looks like it is behaving differently but i'm starting to get into deeper waters!!

Curious what the point of creating a checkout system when the POS algorithm hasn't been proven publicly that it can hold its own without checkpoints.

Just seems backwards...like the chicken and egg problem. But only difference is having a shopping cart or Point of sale system needs security first before it makes sense to use.

So when was the release of the new PPC POS algorithm?

You are quite correct although you miss the point that's exactly why I am organizing bounty project and not working on it myself. Instead I will concentrate on the security issues and client features.

Release is very close. Likely in a week or so.

Testing PPCoin site is up Cool

http://opencart-ppc.btc-music.com

am downloading the ppc blockchain on the server so I can test checkouts.. but other than configuration settings of the opencart talking to the ppcoind client I can see no reason why this plugin would not work.

Let me know what u think and i'm looking into the API ticker for current exchange rates.

posted above, but as an edit, so for reference here is a link to the code in the github

https://github.com/FuzzyBearBTC/OpenCart_PPCoin

I'll throw in a few screenshots of what it looks like from the admin panel to...
EDIT: added images
Install and Add PPCoin as a Payment method


clicking edit takes you here where you can enter the connection setting to ppcoind


Ok yup got to the same error point as with the btc opencart checkout... any advice anyone?? i tried lots of variations in the server host, and making sure the ppcoin.conf matches on a rpallow entry but still no joy Sad anyone know anyone who is actually using the opencart on a live site as they may be able to help with these settings, or maybe my server not got enough ram?? or idk

If there needs to be bitcoin 0.7 features I could provide patch support before ppcoin's refresh to bitcoin's 0.7.

Also, there's a patch I wrote that provides all these features which the cart could theoretically need, somewhere in the orig PPC thread.

Ok so i setup a mock BTC opencart checkout to see what functionality needed to be there and i got this so far...

http://opencart-btc.btc-music.com

following the install iinstructions of https://github.com/btcgear/OpenCart_Bitcoin

I have had to add the currency BTC manually to get prices to be in BTC, but was able to install the plugin etc and just wondering if anyone else had the same internal error when checking out at the bitcoin selection payment method.... its gonna be the settings to the bitcoind running on the server.. but this is always where i seem to be falling down Sad

looking at the code now to see what edits to make for PPC Smiley

Well initial changes made and uploaded to the github... testing now

hooked to bitparking exchange rate.

If there needs to be bitcoin 0.7 features I could provide patch support before ppcoin's refresh to bitcoin's 0.7.

Requirement:
1) demo a successful opencart transaction paid by PPC.
2) PPC payment amount calculated based on bitparking exchange rate.
3) fork published on github.
