PayPal missing from modules?


Recommended Posts

Hello there,

It would appear that PayPal and some other payment modules are not visible under the modules tab. I have tried installing it again, but it's still not displaying.

Using latest version.


Thanks in advance,
Lee

I guess there are some errors prevent this modules from showing up.
try set "display_errors" to "on" at /config/config.inc.php to see if you can see any errors.

Also please check the permission settings on those modules are the same with other folder.

I have this issue too, and it's rather seriously hampering my efforts to implement a project.

Permissions are 755 throughout the site. Very frustrated, as Prestashop was the best of 6 ecommerce packages I tried.

Other details:
Prestashop Version: 1.4.1.0

Server information: Linux #5 SMP Tue Apr 5 19:43:51 BST 2011 x86_64

Server software Version: Apache

PHP Version: 5.3.6

MySQL Version: 5.0.92-community-log

have you tried to search the module?
there is a search box/button there you can search module by name.

Some time the modules displayed are filtered out by some criteria.
check the that is the case.


I checked again - PayPal is not listed as installed or uninstalled under the Payments & Gateways tab. I did find Google Checkout this way, though, and installed it.

The PayPal module does have it's own folder in there, using FTP, just nothing showing at all in the Prestashop backend GUI.

The new PrestaShop version (1.4) has the functionality to delete a module physically.
I guess maybe you deleted somehow.

Just try to download the original package and FTP it again and install it.

it does not show up in the "payments' tab-it is installed when you go to the file menus.

I just want to configure the payments , otherwise the site I just built is useless.


added to show errors- this is what it game me:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 122880 bytes) in /mounted-storage/home81b/sub008/sc45212-AJCL/xxx.com/classes/Module.php(492) : eval()'d code on line 1287

This has nothing to do with Paypal module.
Just your server (PrestaShop) has run out of memory because of too many modules to handle.
You need assign more memory your server which can be done in PHP.ini file.

memory_limit = 128M




Maybe you will also need to talk to your service provider if you are not allowed to do that.

scenario: i deleted the paypal module then I decided that I needed the paypal module so i installed it again, however the paypal module now appears in the "other modules" list and not in the "payment gateways" list!! Can somebody explain why it doesn't go back to where it belongs. Having said that i now do not have a payment module installed cause all i need is paypal.

it is weird, it should stay at payments_gateways section even you deleted and reinstall it.
can you confirm if you have config.xml file under your paypal module folder?
there is tab definition in the config.xml file, here is one under my folder.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

paypal
PayPal
2.4
Accepts payments by credit cards (CB, Visa, MasterCard, Amex, Aurore, Cofinoga, 4 stars) with PayPal.

Are you sure you want to delete your details?

A bit late for this thread, but if you are getting a blank screen except for the tabs when you click the payment tab in admin. I found that by deleting some of the unwanted or unused payment modules from your server solved the problem.

Hope this helps.
