I have several members who are getting this message after purchasing and trying to download their digital product

you do not have permission to download this file

The transaction seems to be working as the download link shows up in the "My Orders" area - just when they click the "Download Link"

any suggestion on where to start looking for the problem?

thanks

[SMFHacks]

Is the transaction marked as completed in the store transactions?
e-Checks for instance won't be marked as completed until the payment clears.

[Bar Nuthin]

no, they are normal paypal transactions and the transaction log shows them as complete

some are actually older transactions where the user returned to download a copy (one of 6 remaining download attempts) for a new computer

one was a "free order" where I gave a free copy to the user

Are they members of the forum? Did they buy it when they were a guest?

[Bar Nuthin]

they were logged in at the time

however, i did recently turn on the function to allow guest purchases - i'll try turning it back off and see if that has any impact

[SMFHacks]

Guest purchases work a little differently since they don't have the MyOrders tab instead they are sent a secure download link.

[Bar Nuthin]

after turning off the "Allow guest purchases" my regular customer's were able to access their downloads

so not sure what needs to be done there

thanks for pointing toward the source of my issue though 

[SMFHacks]

K hmmm will check that out.
