Cancelled Online Event Payment Bug

[karunadave]

When using Pay Standard (Canadian event) when cancelling the transaction half-way through Paypal, by using the Paypal link "Cancel and return to <website name>. (https://www.paypal.com/row/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_flow&SESSION=...#)"

The page the CiviCRM returns to provides the event summary page with this message:

Oops. It looks like you are already registered for this event. If you want to change your registration, or you feel that you've gotten this message in error, please contact the site administrator.

Not only that, but CiviCRM prevents the (logged in) user from re-registering, displaying the same message.

Yes, this is a bug/feature, since we create all the records we need and put them in a pending status. Thus the user is "registered" for the event, but not paid up.

The fix for this is not trivial. I suspect/hope this is an edge case and does not happen a lot. If important to your org, please consider contributing code to fix the issue

This is fixed in r13830  ( Check issue http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-2935 )

This fix was too late to make it into the 2.0.2 distribution. It will be part of 2.0.3 when that is released (probably not for several weeks at a minimum). If you want to implement the code now, you can check the changes at : http://fisheye.civicrm.org/changelog/CiviCRM/?cs=13830

Hi Lobo and Manish

I am happy to wait for a few weeks.  I appreciate all the work you are doing very much.
