CBSubs PayPal Recurring sandbox subscriptions invalid link?

6 years 4 months ago - 6 years 4 months ago #300452 by webtechplus
Hi

We are setting up a subscription service using CBSubs on a website and are trying to setup recurring payments with Paypal.

I have:
- Created a developer Paypal account
- created a sandbox business account
- created a sandbox user (buyer) account)
- Setup PDT and IPN as per the instructions in the Paypal Payment gateway instructions for CBSubs
- Enabled Paypal recurring subscriptions
- Set it to a paypal sandbox server
- Both the Paypal Business and Paypal main recevier account is the email address of the sandbox business account
- Filled out the Identity token field

I sign up with an account, choose a subscription plan. Get taken to paypal, asked to login and then get the following message: screenshots.firefox.com/oEMp0SEmZpMiOr8f/www.sandbox.paypal.com

I've tried everything I can. I set the payment gateway to be Enable Single Payments and that worked, just the recurring payments is throwing this error. If anyone could answer why this is happening that would be great, thanks

Are your PayPal sandbox accounts active? If they're inactive you'll get a bunch of odd errors. Does it work fine with live credentials (you don't need to test a purchase, but just see if you reach checkout at PayPal)?

Hi Krileon

Sorry for the late reply haven't been in the office over the break.

I have put in the details for a live account and it seems like it is working. I didn't process an order but I got to the checkout confirmation page so it does look like there is a problem with the sandbox account, I'll have to check what is up with it.
