Hi.

  I'm not sure if this is a bug or valid behaviour but i noticed something strange when making test contributions.

Environment - Drupal 5.8, CiviCRM 2.0.4

1 - Create a payment processor of type "Payjunction"
     http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/PayJunction+Configuration

2 - Create a contribution page using the payment processor created in step 1.

3 - Login to drupal
    in my case i have only one user in drupal - "admin" with uid 1.
    and it's corresponding contact in civicrm - cid 102.
    now all the tables - drupal.users, civicrm.email and civicrm.uf_match are having the same email "user1@example.com" in the respective fields

3 - Login to drupal as admin

4 - Make a test contribution using the contribution page created in step 2.
     Please note while making a contribution there's a field that captures email
     which is prefilled with user1@example.com
     change that to user2@example.com

5 - Complete the test contribution and notice that the tables drupal.users, civicrm.email and civicrm.uf_match
     have now been updated with the email user2@email.com.

Is this the correct behaviour ?

Another case is lets say we have 2 users in drupal and civicrm

drupal                                                          civicrm
id  name    email                                          cid
4   user1    user1@email.com                       104
5   user2    user2@email.com                       105

Now if user1 attempts to make a contribution using payjunction but enters email user2@email.com (user1 is not aware that there's
an email user2.email in the system) then there's a civicrm error for duplicate id for uf_match table.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry. A non-recoverable error has occurred.
DB Error: already exists
Database Error Code: Duplicate entry 'user2@example.com-1' for key 3, 1062
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Are these correct behaviours when using the payjunction payment processor ? (i.e. updating system records when the email is
changed for that particular contribution ?)

Thanks

hi.

i've created / resolved the issue at http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-3350.
i still find it very strange that a single email change in a contribution can change my drupal tables .
i mean there's no where on the form where it states that your drupal email would be changed.

for the patch i'm checking if the email exists in the civicrm_email table, if present, it gives an error message.
does one also need to check drupal's user table ? (or joomla's ?)

thx.

it's fixed now. it checks for anonymous / authenticated user now and checks authenticated users against the civicrm_uf_match table.
