Paypal Express Checkout Stopped Working, Error 500

[PugMaster]

Hi

 

I have had an install at version 2.3.3 working fine for a few months but recently the Paypal Express Checkout has stopped working, receiving 500 errors.

 

I did a fresh install into another folder with a fresh database install and that does not work either, install on another server works fine.

 

I am hosted with streamline.net which seems to use fasthost servers, contacted there support but they are not that great even though the installs were down by there "one-click" installer.

 

Managed to find the following entry in a log somewhere which is the closest i have come to solving this:-

• 
  [Wed Aug 21 20:57:31 2013] [error] [client 81.154.248.67] Premature end of script headers: php54-cgi, referer: http://www.wormerplus.co.uk/shop/admin/modules.php?set=payment&module=paypal_express
  

 

Kind Regards

Paul

Hi - I reckon Fasthosts have upgraded the PHP on your server and it's throwing a wobbly. Have a look at your other servers and compare PHP versions - there may be a clue there.

 

Some hosting companies offer the ability to choose PHP versions - I have no idea if Fasthosts do - if they do then see if you can roll back your to something like 5.2 and see if that helps

This is the same problem i was struggeling with.

it was web server company so was beeing blacklistet by AT&T.

API comunication between server and paypal was stopped/blocked.

 

I contacted AT&T directly and they opened the blocking and all was OK after.

 

My web server services was "Surftown".. They could not help me

they had a DoDos attack at theyr servers and it was theyr problem.

 

I spend 2 days figuring aou this.

And no compensation from surftown.

I wil start looking for a new web hosting firm.
