kalidasa Posted April 19, 2022 Posted April 19, 2022 (edited) I googled worldpay forums and this forum showed up with a decent covering of worldpay pg issues. I have my server certificate signed(SHA2) by the required root authority (digicert global G2). When I send a GET to the worldpay test url https://secure-test.worldpay.com with Authorization header and an empty body - I get a 200 OK with partial/truncated message body. When I send the full xml for an imaginary order per the DTD here, LiveDTD: paymentService_v1.dtd (worldpay.com) - I get a 403 Forbidden. I have the installation id, merchant code in the right locations as per the schema. I dont know what in the TLS handshake to look for. any pointers on how to get past the 403 is hugely appreciated.

I used HTTPS to make the GET request. I dont know if I must read too much into the unsecure http scheme or whether it is indicative of any cause Edited April 19, 2022 by kalidasa Quote
BrockleyJohn Posted April 20, 2022 Posted April 20, 2022 I agree that returning a different schema in the error message is weird but may not be meaningful. The 403 return usually means an authentication problem but may also relate to trying to do something that's not permitted. Try submitting an order value in GBP - maybe the account doesn't handle euros. I have found the worldpay technical team quite helpful in the past, though remote working has made them harder to get hold of. Quote Contact me for work on updating existing stores - whether to Phoenix or the new osC when it's released. Looking for a payment or shipping module? Maybe I've already done it. Working on generalising bespoke solutions for Quickbooks integration, Easify integration and pay4later (DEKO) integration at 2.3.x
kalidasa Posted April 20, 2022 Author Posted April 20, 2022 It is the wierdest of things - with Worldpay support I discovered that using POST instead of GET method solved the problem. The documentation never goes into detail about this basic info and being a total noob to web applications, I could not spot it (relying heavily on our software vendor who does this day in and day out) Thanks Brockey John for the message, but I had to run around worldpay team for a month now and I got a bad apple from the bunch who just sent me off on rock fetching exercises. Ultimately, it turned out to be such a trivial issue that is embarassing to report Quote
