This points to a web server issue:

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Getting content length is not supported.'

I assume you're running Apache? What this error means is the CONTENT_LENGTH server variable is not present, which causes an error.

Separating pending payout money and store profits and reconciliation


Using Jamroom

This is something you would work out in whatever bank/financial institution you use. You could use the ACP -> FoxyCart -> Tools -> Profile Payout to find the profile payout balances from the previous payout.

Verifying transaction amounts


Using Jamroom

andersda:I'm trying to verify that a transaction is processes correctly.

Where can i see how much was received from foxycart (and see how much was the transaction fee that was taken out)?

Where can i see how much of a transaction was paid to store fees?

ACP -> FoxyCart -> Tools -> Transaction Details

andersda:Where can i see a log of all store fees received and the running balance?

Where can I seen how much of a transaction went to a artist(seller)?

Where can I see a log of all an artist's (seller's) sales and and his running balance?

JR is profile based, so go to the profile that is the seller and click on the "payments" menu item - there's a lot of stuff in there.

Let me know if that helps.

mp3 metadata.


Using Jamroom

andersda:When a user purchases a file, the only thing they can tell is whatever file name was used when the original file was uploaded. Is there a way to update the filename and id3 tag with the information in the song details page?

This would require an ID3 tagger - it's something on the todo list, but has not been added yet. It will be in a future version of the audio module though.

Hope this helps!

Downloading purchases


Using Jamroom

andersda:How many times can a user download a purchase?

As many times as they want - there are no restrictions on it.

Block mp3 downloads


Using Jamroom

andersda:I assume this still allows you to play (stream)the file in the player. What protocol is used to stream? I assume its not progressive and not stored on the user's drive.

Yes - it prevents MP3's from being downloaded via the "download" view - it only allows streaming vie the "stream" view, which is a normal file stream on port 80. If the user has a tool to store it on their drive, they can (since it has to be sent to them to be played). Just like always, there is no 100% secure way to prevent someone from downloading and saving a file. This is why in JR, when a file is for sale, only the sample is streamed - not the whole song.

Quote:Does this still allow the user to download files after purchase?

Yes - that happens through vault_download, which is a separate function that is part of FoxyCart.

Quote:Is that download link hashed?

How long is the key valid?

no it's not hashed.

Quote:Does the same restriction apply if you are selling other media types (wav, aiff, mov, flac, avi, etc...)

it works the same for everything that is sold.

Hope this helps!

Header is broken


Using Jamroom

mdamato:Wow great! I was running an older jamroom core and all of my modules were also way out of date.

Fixed now!!!

Right on - glad to hear that.

Thanks!

Header is broken


Using Jamroom

Using Media Pro, I am not seeing any issues - I first customized the header by setting the margin to 20px (which moved it out of alignment), then I clicked on "reset" and reset it - it's now back to the way it should be.

Are you running the latest Jamroom Core?

Thanks!
