One of two things, either the patch was not applied\incorrectly applied, seen here:

http://www.bennadel.com/blog/1289-ColdFusion-8-0-1-Bug-Coldfusion-Image-ImageWriter-ImageWritingException.htm

with CF stopped

or the path is wrong in the code, per our example:

http://www.hosting.com/support/cfusion/captcha/

destination=”tmp/readme#tc#.png”

being run from example.com/subfolder

would result int he file trying to be written to:

C:\Websites\userdir\subfolder\tmp\

When performing the callback, Google gets the following error:

401 – Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.

I have not found the direct solution, but the workaround I have come up with is to put the page it calls back to in its own directory and disable basic authentication on that folder. The call back then completes. I recommend using a randomly generated folder name to prevent it from being stumbled upon by nefarious individuals.

To reorder products within a given category
in your admin section, click on Categories on the left hand side
Then to the right of the category you want to reorder products for
click the “Edit” button
Once the page loads, click the Products tab
Then click the Assigned button
This will show you the products specific to this category
To the right of Product order is a link that should say Hide, if not click the word Show
You can now see the order products will show up on this category
If you wanted the Product 2 to be the first item, you can go to its box, change the 2 to a 1 and hit enter, not Update
You will then notice the order of products has changed on your category that you edited

So you have some categories (image one) and this is what they look like (image two). Then you add a third Category (image three) and you see what it looks like (image four), but you feel this is a sub category, or a sub type of a main category. So what you want to do, is set it as a sub category. To do this, in the admin, on the far right, click Edit (image five). Click the Look Up button (image six) and chose the appropriate parent category (image seven). Then Click the Update button (image eight). Now, if you go to the site, the site by default looks like Image two, but if you click on Category One, it shows you the sub categories (image nine)

To edit your settings log into your Seller Central Account, Click on Checkout Pipeline Settings under Settings on the left hand menu. Click on the Edit button. You will find the correct settings to set these to within your Miva Merchant admin section, at the screen where you edit the Payment settings for your Checkout by Amazon module. The correct settings are listed on the bottom. Keep in mind the Merchant URL must be a secure (https) URL. Then Click Update to complete.

Scripts seem to have been upgraded but the backend was not, so the scripts are looking for a field that does not exist.  From my understanding may be related to core 14.

Miva Merchant Module codes

June 17th, 2009

This post is primarily for when going from 4-5 to find out what module the missing one was.

EXTRAMSG_C ACD Additional Checkout Data New Version
BROK_UPS_CUSTOM UPS Online Tools® Custom Integration by VIKING CODERS New Version found on same page.
BROK_PRODTEMPLATES Product Page Templates Functionality from my understanding is now included in the current version of Miva Merchant.
SS_FREESHIP This was a Free Shipping module developed by Sebenza. Sebenza does not currently make a Free Shipping module per se.

For all of those like me that can never remember, when looking for the OINF page, look to the OCST and ORDL pages instead.

If customer is not logged in -> OINF Goes to ORDL
If customer is logged in -> OINF Goes to OCST

To edit your settings log into your PayPal Manager Account, Click on Service Settings, and then Click on Configuration.  You will find the correct settings to set these to within your Miva Merchant admin section, at the screen where you edit the Payment settings for your Verisign Payflow Link module.

To edit your settings log into your Google Checkout Account, Click on Settings, and then Click on Integration.  You will find the correct settings to set these to within your Miva Merchant admin section, at the screen where you edit the Payment settings for your Google Checkout module.
