Hikashop not sending cart to Sagepay

Hi

I have two problems which are related to one another.

1. My Sagepay pluggin doesn't send the shopping cart to sagepay even when the "Send Basket Data" is turned on. I'm still able to take payments for the correct amount. Its just that no data is given to sagepay so I can't tell what the payment is for ie. no Basket, invoice no, description etc in Sagepay account.

2. I can't get Hikashop to send the customer details to Sagepay. Name, email, address, country etc. At the moment only UK clients can book and checkout on the website .
Sagepay insists on a billing address field to be send from the website to them, if you are booking from countries like the USA. We are missing these booking at the moment.
UK Clients end up filling out their details on our website and then again in sagepay.

I have the website set up as guest checkout as I don't need people to register. Its obviously something to do with my set up but I cant for the life of me figure it out.

Sagepay customer service stated this "US address not working due to no Billing State field" and told me to look at page 43 in the linked document. (This means nothing to me, and is well over my head)

What can I do to get all this working.

HI Nicolas

I've turned on the debug mode in the Sagepay plugin. When I checkout it flashes up for less then a second and then goes to the Sagepay payment page. So I have no chance of seeing the text.

The payment goes through in the same way (No basket or contact details).

I've had a word with Sagepay and they are still stating its my coding from the basket or how I have set the contact details up. They then told me they have changed the workflow of the payment details in v3.00. The new workflow means if you don't provide the basket information/contact details in the correct order then the payment will fail unless the client is from the same country (UK, for me).

Has the Sagepay upgrade to Sage Pay Protocol v3.00 got anything to do with it? I'm a new sagepay customer and I'm on the new system.

I found this page talking about how to upgrade

I also found this talking about Sage Pay Version 3.00 - understanding the process

Any help would be great!

Cheers

Now I'm really lost.

I can see that the information is being given to Sagepay (see below) but sage pay still don't accept it. Any clues why this would happen? I'm a sending the correct information but in the wrong order? I understand this is sort of stepping out of hikashop and now moving on to sagepay, but any ideas would be well received. Cheers, Rich

Hi Nicolas

I've had a few days of testing on live clients and the news has come back as very mixed.

1. Some UK Clients have be able to make a purchase via the hikashop Sagpay pluggin. (50%)

2. Some UK Clients get the following sagepay error code 3021 : INVALID : The Basket format is invalid. 3021 Code information

3. The original problem with the billing state field stands for US client who still can't book with us.
"Sagepay insists on a billing address field to be send from the website to them, if you are booking from countries like the USA. We are missing these booking at the moment."

Note: In Debug mode Problem 2 & 3 The page can't be frozen on the browser to see the code. It goes too fast and Sagepay get the error code in place in milliseconds. The ESC key doesn't work in any browser.

Any ideas?

Cheers
