Hi,

I'm trying to use PayPal Website Payments Pro and have setup the Gateway.  When I try to check out to test this, I get a critical error.  The event viewer log is:

However, when I tried to use Standard Paypal, it works well.

I don't think it has anything to do with the 'Full Trust',  As I further tested the the 'Manual' payment gateway,and the same error popup.


I am using a clean install of Trial Smith cart 6.52.0.
Most of the settings are default.
No Payment method is setup, 

Please help!

Hi Kevin,

I went thru the setup wizard.

1. I chose Free Shipping
2. No Tax
3. Payment Zone is setup.
4. I dont want to use any payment method other than Paypal website Pro, So I chose Credit Card in the wizard and deactivated it.

It works fine when I switched to standard Paypal. So, I guess the settings are all right.

Any clue you can get from the error message?

Thanks

Hi Dave,

Thank you for your help. You found the reason.
When I add Cash as a payment method the error's gone.

But, it is not exact what I want. I still couldn't manage to setup Paypal Website Pro.

I don't want to deal with and payment method like cash or credit card. I want this shop to support Paypal website Pro or Payflow Pro Only. As in Paypal clients can pay either by their Palpal account or by credit card.

I thought Paypal Website Pro works similar to Paypal website standard.
When I use Cash(or even without any payment method) paypal website standard work fine, the page redirect to paypal page successfully.
But when I switched to Paypal Website Pro with Cash method (as I mentioned before, I do not want to use Credit Card , I chose cash only to let the module work), and the order was confirmed after clicking the submit order button without shown anything with paypal.

Is there a way to achieve that? Making the shop work with Paypal website Pro or Payflow Pro Only.

Thanks

Wayne

Hi Dave,

Thanks again for your help.

I think I followed the instructions in the gateway guide to set up Paypal website Pro and added log4net.dll to the bin folder

Afterwards I activated the Credit Card Payment method.

But I've got another message in the confirmation step.

We couldn't complete your payment.

Status : failure
Message : Processor Decline

It was not one of these fatal errors that can be seen in the event view, so I don't have much information to give.

If it is because the website is not in 'Full trust' ? Do I need SSL set up to proceed the payment? Or I did incorrectly set up the module?
