Authorize.net: suddenly can't connect

[dino705 0]

Hi-

My store has been working great until today but suddenly today, when customers try to confirm and submit their order, they get this error: "The server cannot connect to Authorize.net. Please check your cURL and server settings."

We have made no code or any other changes to the store or server settings. Any ideas as to what may have happened?

I called Authorize.net and they asked me for an error code. How do I get the error code?

Thanks.

I was having the same problem. Turns out my server clock was off by over an hour. Authorize.net requires you be within 15 minutes of time you send them a transaction attempt.

Weird. Did you ever get resolution for this? All of a sudden I have the same problem...

I also seem to have the same problem and I am using Authorize.net to process credit cards, and i cannot get it to function any longer. It was working for a short while, but no longer works. I get the error, "The server cannot connect to Authorize.net. Please check your cURL and server settings." I am trying to use the AIM method to connect. NEED ASSISTANCE ASAP.

 

Thanks

If you are using GoDaddy, there are cURL issues with them you need to be aware of.

If you are using GoDaddy, there are cURL issues with them you need to be aware of.

 

I actually operate my own webserver. I have tested cURL in other php scripts and it is loading fine. I'm getting the "The server cannot connect to Authorize.net. Please check your cURL and server settings." error message. I have also set up another oscommerce store in another directory of the sime site using identical authorize.net settings.

Same issue here with new store, anyone ever get to the bottom of it?

Are you sure Authorize.net isn't just having connection issues? When I used them they seemed to go up and down randomly.

Has anyone figured this issue out? This has recently happened to a site that I work on. Nothing changed, but all of a sudden I started getting the error:

 

"The server cannot connect to Authorize.net. Please check your cURL and server settings."

 

My site has been working fine for almost a year now. Please help if you can.

did your host changed something recently?

I'm having this exact same error message, does anyone have the fix for this? It worked before, but after server restore, it stopped working. Curl is installed as phpinfo() stated.
