Help? (Invalid Parameter)?

Well, if so many persons are having the same problem without any change in the code, then it must be something from the paypal side
Can you guys wait for few days?

I have spoken to about 10 different people at PayPal tech support that have assured me it isn't their issue. I have been told numerous times that I need to upgrade to Payment Pro and then told I don't need to. It is pretty frustrating.

PayPal is how 95% of my customers make their payment, and at the moment it isn't working. This is day 2 for me.

Are you suggesting that we wait a couple of days to see if it just starts working again? Or that we wait a couple of days to see if PayPal finds anything on the open ticket? There really isn't anything else I can try by myself, I definately don't have enough knowledge of this stuff to fiddle with the code myself, so I am looking into having someone else check it out for me, but I would love it if PayPal figured it out.

1. what version are you running: ZenCart 1.3.7

4. who is your hosting company: ACENET

5. are you using Website Payment Standard or Website Payment Pro: Pro

The fact that No1m is having the same problem with Pro makes at least answers paypal's claim that you have to have Pro for it to work right.

Very true! And thank goodness that I found that out BEFORE I upgraded!

No1im, have you contacted PayPal? You might have more luck since you get to contact Tech Support through Pro....

Well if it isn't working with Standard or Pro and it IS a PayPal thing you would think a LOT more people would be calling in to report it....and PayPal would know it was an issue if they got a couple of hundred calls.....

3. did you make any changes to your code before it quit working: No

4. who is your hosting company: goDaddy

5. are you using Website Payment Standard or Website Payment Pro: I use Express Checkout. My boss has paid for WPP Pro but I do not see how that would have an impact on Express Checkout.

We are a 100% Express Checkout. This is BAD.


USEFUL observations:

1) I have a download-only product and it works just fine
2) The logs show:

3) Same logs show:

My best guess is that SHIPTOCOUNTRY used to be empty by default and now PayPl requires an explicit value.

Oh!!! NICE!!!

My error log says this:

We are sorry for the inconvenience. The PayPal account in this
store is presently misconfigured to use mixed sandbox and live settings. We
are unable to complete your transaction. Please notify the store owner so
they can correct this problem. (10002)

I called paypal. They are adamant that the problem is not theirs, though they admit they've received other calls on the matter. I did ask about the website pro option and the guy with whom I was speaking said "no, that will not fix this problem." He said that "paypal is not receiving the info it needs from Zen Cart" but couldn't tell me what that info was

PayPal IPN works fine.

I have the country code error in PayPal express. I can affirm that it was working a few days ago.
