Different environment may have different cause, difficult to figure out by imagination.

I have every good Paypal Module with many features like Express Checkout that may benefit your business. If the same problem happens on my Module, I will help you fix the problem for free. For more information please see this thread.

If the fix didn't work you have to check that your server support the $_SERVER['HTTPS'] variable.


I phoned up my provider and he didn't really know what that variable was.

He suggested I might need SSL, but since its another £30 a year I'd like to avoid it.
Is SSL a requirement for paypal to work? Is that the problem?

I thought you had already SSL, which is usually the reason for this error message.
But anyway you don't need SSL for Paypal.
Did you try to upgrade to 1.4.1 ?


I've definately got 1.4.1

Asked my host to temporarily give me SSL just to see if it helps. It doesn't, same problem.
I just installed Google Checkout and still get the same problem with that as well "Too many redirects".

What does this mean?

Chrome says
"The web page at https://i3-design.co.uk/shop/modules/gcheckout/payment.php has resulted in too many redirects. Clearing your cookies for this site or allowing third-party cookies may fix the problem. If not, it is possibly a server configuration issue and not a problem with your computer."

I found this on the topic maybe it will help solve the issue. Double check all your setting as suggested above paypal and prestashop make sure they are all correct. You can review the meaning of problem with website security certificat and find out more info.
