Paypal API Problem, Read Other Thread But Still Problem for Me

[greatthings]

Hello,

I have Paypal API error on checkout

I have tried to set up Paypal API with Prestashop and followed the instructions,

I have an SSL enabled shared hosting account, on linux etc

I have read the solution posted by Prestashop's Philippe Sang (At the bottom of the following thread)

http://www.prestashop.com/forums/viewthread/20751/P15/#95453

He said: Look PayPal logs : security header is not valid : your login, password OR signature is incorrect, please check it

I have also now tried changing the folder permissions in the modules/paypalapi folder (folders named: admin, api, express and payment) to 777, I then tried to choose paypal for payment from the front end and still got the error, so I changed the admin, api, express and payment folders back to 755 as I am not sure if the permissions on those folders should be changed (should they?)

In my own Paypal API module set up: My password and and signature were correct. As for security header, I have no idea what that is about?

I still unfortunately have the API problem, I just get the following error message show up in Prestashop:


1. Making new connection to 'api-3t.paypal.com/nvp'
2. Connect with CURL method sucessfull
3. Sending this params:
4. (Edited this part, looked like private info)/extravaganza/order.php&CURRENCYCODE=AUD&NOSHIPPING=1
5. Send with CURL method sucessfull
6. PayPal response:
7. TIMESTAMP -> 2009-06-26T04:33:05Z
8. CORRELATIONID -> 36ceb1d55d119

Have you found a solution for I too have the same pb...

thx

[probitaille]

I don't remember how i find the solution but i know that you need a valid SSL certificate and paypal account/configuration. And last version of Prestashop must be ok with that error.

Ok thx, i wait, because my certificate is recent !
