Question:
Why doesn't the shopping cart include the password in the email receipt after I purchase an item in passwords.dat?

Answer:
1. Make sure that the "passwords.dat" file is spelled correctly.

2. Make sure the passwords.dat file is in the same directory that your
vars.dat file is in.

3. Make sure that the left fields in your passwords.dat file matches
exactly what you have in the custom description tags of your HTML forms. It
is case sensitive. See details on this in section 14 of the ReadMe.

4. If you have system paths to an .htpasswd file in your passwords.dat file, make sure those system paths are accurate. Use this tool kit to make sure your htaccess and htpasswd files are set up correctly:

5. Make sure that the .htpasswd file is writable. Chmod 666 on Unix. After you run a test order, check to see that the .htpasswd file was written to. Open it up and see that your email address and crypted password are in it. If not, either it's not writable, or your system paths in the passwords.dat file are not accurate.

6. If your email address appears in the .htpasswd file more than one time and you are having trouble logging in after running at test order, remove your email addresses and passwords from the .htpasswd file and run a new test order. Then try to login with the new password.
