PayPal payment error message


qwertyjjj

Recommended Posts

I get the following error when checking out and trying to pay through paypal directly via a credit card without an account.

Any ideas what is wrong:

 

Sorry, an error occurred after you clicked the last link

 

If you were in the process of buying something, or sending money to family or friends, we recommend you check both your PayPal account and your email inbox for a transaction confirmation after 30 minutes.

 

If you came to this page from another website, you may want to return to that site (we advise that you don't just use your browser's back button) and restart your activity.

 

If you stumbled upon this page from the PayPal website, simply click the PayPal logo in the top left corner to return to the UK home page and restart your activity. You might have to log in again.

 

If you wish to sign up to PayPal, please click the PayPal logo and then click the “Sign up” button.

This may have something to do with it...

 

PayPal has made some upgrades recently and changed the landing page:

 

I had to change the url in catalog/includes/modules/payment/paypal.php to

 

$this->form_action_url = 'https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr';

 

I am no longer getting the error message listed above.

Do I need the PayPal express module installed to accept payments?

If so, what are the API usernames of osCommerce?

This has nothing to do with the original post.

The solution to the original post is listed above.

I changed the above code earlier in the month, but today seems as though this error has come back. Any other suggestions?

I had the exact same issue...I called Paypal many times without any success, the only solution I found was to install the Paypal IPN contrib.....it works now!

Good luck!
