Paypal "This transaction is invalid..."

Hello,
I have set up the Paypal Express Checkout module and entered the API Credentials.
But when I tried to test Paypal Express Checkout, it shows this message:

"This transaction is invalid. Please return to the recipient's website to complete your transaction using their regular checkout flow."

My Store URL is http://www.starruby.in/store/

I tried searching the forum for the solution to this problem, but couldnt find any relevant solution.

I also asked my hosting company about CURL and they replied saying that Curl is enabled on the server and they gave me this url for more details:
http://starruby.in/phpinfo.php

Please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Regards,
Harshil

What version of Zen Cart are you using?
What addons/contributions are installed?

My Store URL is http://www.starruby.in/store/I can't connect to your site.

I also asked my hosting company about CURL and they replied saying that Curl is enabled on the server and they gave me this url for more details:I'm inclined to think it's not a CURL issue, or you would never get to the PayPal site, unless of course you're seeing specific CURL error messages.
What's showing up in your PayPal debug logs?

Re: Paypal "This transaction is invalid..."

Thanks for your reply.

I tried debugging and the problem was:

" [CURL_ERRORS] => (1) libcurl was built with SSL disabled, https: not
supported!"

After that I contact my hosting company to enable CURL with SSL. They did so and now paypal checkout works! :smile:
