Nice thread really helpful and it worked for me.

No, this path does not look like the root path of the website.
have a look at the file configuration.php (as I wrote before)
or in the global setting - there should be written the correct path

Hi David,

I have found the path in global configuration:


It reads: /home/beverl10/public_html/new/tmp

Then I go to Files Directory to Store details and entered:


Which reads exactly the same.

However I still get the warning message when confirming the order on the website.

Does anything still look to be incorrect when you look at the settings I have shown.

Thank you again.

Kind Regard,

Luke

hi
as I wrote in the previous post.

If the root path of root folder is (for example): /var/www/yourweb/
Then the path in the plugin should be:
/var/www/yourweb/virtuemart_uploads

If the path is different, the path for plugin setting is the different in the same way.

David

Hi David,

I have followed your instructions the best I can understand.

Please see what I have entered.

Here is the root folder I created, as you suggested:


And then below is the Files Directory to Store details I entered:



This reads /public_html/new/virtuemart_uploads

Yet when I check out and confirm the order it still shows the following message:
Joomla\CMS\Filesystem\Folder::create:Could not create folder.Path:/CGHN015



Any help you can offer on this at all would be so so so appreciated!

Thank you again for your patience. My understanding of this isn't great so it is all good help from you.

Kind Regards,

Luke

1) Create some folder where you want to store the files. Let us say I have created the folder named "virtuemart_uploads" in the root of website.
2) Open the configuration file configuration.php and find there the line which begins $tmp_path.
I have there (in local machine) this:
public $tmp_path = '/var/www/html/tmp';
3) the final path to set in the plugin (in this case) is:
/var/www/html/virtuemart_uploads

Hi David,

Really appreciate your help on this so far.

I have created in the root of the website a folder named "virtuemart_uploads".

I am now wanting to find exactly which line I should be putting the path on?

Here is where I believe it should be amongst. Just not exactly sure where and don't want to end up putting it in the wrong place.

$config = JFactory::getConfig();
$tmp_folder = $config->get('tmp_path').DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'fileinput';

switch ($params['subfolder_of_files']) {
case 'virtuemart_order_id':
$new_folder = $params['path_of_files'].'/'.$order['details']['BT']->virtuemart_order_id;
break;
case 'order_number':
$new_folder = $params['path_of_files'].'/'.$order['details']['BT']->order_number;
break;
}
$new_folder=str_replace('//','/',$new_folder);
if (!JFolder::exists($new_folder)) JFolder::create($new_folder);
$index_html='';
JFile::write($new_folder.'/index.html', $index_html);
if (JFile::exists($tmp_folder.'/'.$cf->tmp_filename)) {
JFile::move($tmp_folder.'/'.$cf->tmp_filename, $new_folder.'/'.$cf->filename);
}


Thank you again for your help

There is setting named "Files directory to store"
There must be the path of the folder where to attachments are stored.
It must be absolute path (similar to the variable $log_path or $tmp_path in the file configuration.php)

Hi David
Thank you for your response.
I am not sure how to create this path. Sorry, is there a simple way in which this can be done?

Hello,
important information is about the versions.
What is the version of this plugin? (should be the latest - currently 1.4)
What is the version of VirtueMart?
What is the version of Joomla!?
What is the version of PHP?

You may try to replace the line:
$session = JSession::getInstance();
by this:
$session = JFactory::getSession();

Thank you for your help!

That certainly allows for the customer to then complete the order and be sent to the payment page. However, before the payment page loads a warning message flashes up showing:



Is there any way of removing this?

Your help is appreciated so far. Thanks again!
