If you're seeing a 401 Unauthorized error when trying to update your Joomla extension, it's likely due to our new two-factor authentication (2FA) security measure for your Download ID.
To resolve this, check your email (Spam folder?) for a message to approve your server or device, or read our detailed blog post here(

The captacha in the form isn't taken into account.
With the payment by paypal, I can not connect to Paypal.
When I click on the yellow Paypal button, the popup window opens to connect to paypal, and when I click on the next button, I come back to a "login" page and etc.
The Paypal plugin is in Sandbox mode.
Hi Fabrice,
the Captcha I need to have a site so I can see if there is something wrong.
As for Paypal, the Paypal popup is completely a paypal own JS script, ochsubscription only creates an order and Paypal will take it from there.
When turning on debug in ochsubscriptions (or on your site global config), there should be some more information in the browser console for both ochsubscriptions and paypal.
Can you try that and report the information logged?
But I have another problem.
I made some other tests and if I diseable manualy a subscription, the user can still upload the file !
This is how it works:
you have a product
you create a user group for that product in the user manager
you create an Access Level for this group in the user manager
in ochSubscriptions you then assign the created usergroup to the product
now when a subscription to than product is created, the user (customer) is assigned the configured user group: Joomla will give him rights to the access level
when a subscription is disabled (or expires), the user (customer) is removed from the joomla user group and as such looses his access level rights.
On the file(s) or category that the product gives access to you need to set the correct Access Level.
Yes, that's what I understood.
But I used the RDSubscription data recovery to configure the component.
If the download access management is only managed by access rights, what is the use:
- the "Joomla Updater Download Authorization" parameter has "Access Level + Active Subscription" in "File Categories" ?
- the "Status" information in Subscriptions items ?

The parameter 'Access Level + Active Subscritpions' is for what it says: the Joomla Updater download > so not downloading from the website but downloading an update via the customer his website via the Joomla Update manager.
The use case here is that you can have a free extension (Access Level public) which is free to download, but you want to offer registered users (via subscribing to the product) extra functionality in the use of the Joomla Updater. So the download is free and can be done manually, but when you want to automatically update the extension in your Joomla site via the Joomla Updater then you need a subscription to this product.
Note that this part (amongst others) is completely refactored from how it was for rd-subs. rd-subs had its own (limited) way of doing access rigths, we now follow / implement Joomla Core for access rights, security and maintenance. This was a huge (!) change (and one of the needed changes why probably rdsubs was abandoned as the developer didn't want to make that needed effort)
