Paypal doesn't charge client account (sandbox mode)

I've switched it to live mode now. I'm getting an error: "This transaction cannot be processed due to an invalid merchant configuration."

This error only happens when I choose the regular "credit or debit card" option at checkout instead of the "paypal(including credit and debit cards) option.

otherwise, if I go the paypal route (through the paypal site) it process the transaction smoothly.

How many payment methods do you have active and if more than one, do you have them all configured correctly ?

I have "PayPal Website Payments Pro - Direct Payments" enabled but the module asks for "PayPal Express Checkout" enabled too , so I enabled that as well.

All I'm trying to do is to have one option that allows paypal processing on the background, without going though the paypal site. I thought thats what the "paypal website payments pro" does, however I wonder if it doesn't work unless my client has exactly that kind of service on his paypal account. (Currently he has "Paypal Payments Advanced")

Your client ? You are offering professional osCommerce services ? :huh:

 

The client has to be signed up for whatever service you are enabling in osCommerce.

Dennis,

 

How did you set up Paypal Payments Advanced? I cannot get it to come up in the payments module in admin. Therefore I cannot setup the module to work.

you can create the sandbox PayPal client account and run the transaction using the sandbox seller and buyer PayPal account.

Please read this line: Do you want to find all the answers to your questions? click here. As for contribution database it's located here!

8 people out of 10 don't bother to read installation manuals. I can recommend: if you can't read the installation manual, don't bother to install any contribution yourself.

Before installing contribution or editing/updating/deleting any files, do the full backup, it will save to you & everyone here on the forum time to fix your issues.

Any issues with oscommerce, I am here to help you.
