Currency auto update not working 1.5

Post by andrixx » Fri Aug 26, 2011 4:42 pm

Hi,

I have been struggeling with my currency for some time now. I can't get them to auto update!
My store default currency has the value 1.00000000 and the rest it set to 0.

I have tried waiting over 24h to see if the updates comes, since it should accour 'daily'.
But nothing updates. I have moved my store to a new server and I then installed a new database for OC. But I still use my old modified files.

So maybe in the whole opencart file structure I have changed something? I need to know where to look if that is the case!

If not, I need some assistance or help, I am really running out of ideas!

Thanks for any answer or contribution.

Then check this time tomorrow to see if they are updated.

Alright I try that. I report back tomorrow!

Yes it is the correct currency codes.

I also tried enter settings for my store and save without changing anything. Still not updated.

I sent the email to the support and had not got an answer by this morning, but I saw that the currencys had been updated a bit later on. After 4 days since they have last been updated. Then I saw that the support had sent me an email telling me they would look curl up.

So my guess is that it was inactive. This issue is solved!

And most likely curl. (Thanks rph!)

If curl really is required for auto update to work, maybe it should be mentioned in the documentation?

At the moment it says Auto Update Currency
If set to yes your store will automatically get currency rates and update the values daily."

As late as I am (we are actually in 2014), I've managed to go around the bug.

*Keep in mind I'm using OC v.1.5.6.1

What you should to is:
1. Create your currency (admin > System > Localization > Currencies > etc.), but leave it's value in blank (OC will deal with that);
2. Set it as your default currency (admin > System > Settings > etc.);
3. Go back to Currencies (notice that U$ will act as the basis for all the other currencies) and create some other currency, lets say: Ringgit Malaysia, MYR, MR. Again, leave the value in blank and hit save;
4. Notice the values will update. But now you default currency is the basis for all other currencies.

Hope I have helped!
