Paypal Setup

[dmm2020]

Having trouble setting up Paypal for the sandbox mode to test it. Can you give me a quick step-by-step on setting up paypal? I have it set up under Zencart in my own store, but it's been a few years since I did that. I am getting errors when I attempt to do the same in osC cart.

And thanks for the work you did for me yesterday. Awesome.

You need to create a PayPal sandbox account with a business and buyers account it.

You generate the API Username, API Password and API Signature on the PayPal site.

Then add the business account with the password and API Setting for that account to the PayPal payment module in your config setting.

When purchasing you need to use the buyers account you setup in the paypal sandbox account.

I set up a sandbox account at Paypal, but I click test API credentials, I get the following error message:


The PayPal Express Checkout credentials are not set up correctly for the sandbox environment.

array(0) {
}

The debug message sent to my email shows the following:

$HTTP_POST_VARS:

adminhash=
ajax=

$HTTP_GET_VARS:

action=test
