Paypal checkout not working

[anxiouskittie]

Hi!

I tried creating the pay with paypal option using this tutorial thing:

http://shopsite.com/help/8.2/en-US/sc/p ... lobal.html

I get the following errors:

Message: Transaction refused because of an invalid argument. See additional error messages for details. (10401)
Message: Transaction refused because of an invalid argument. See additional error messages for details. (10426)

what to do?

Try using PayPal Website Payments Standard instead. PayPal Website Payments Pro will only work for ShopSite merchants using US Dollars (and probably also must have a US PayPal account).

ehr, that was the wrong link of me, seems i can't link to that page i got the tutorial from. sorry bout that.

Thanks for the reply!

But when i want to try the "standard", it still won't work, and i guess that is because I do not have the option of NOK (norwegian currency) :/ Why? I guess I can't use the PayPal option in any way (unless i also display USD, Euro or the other currencies available) or did i get it wrong?

The current ShopSite implementation of PayPal Website Payments Standard was done before PayPal added your NOK currency to its list of supported currencies, which is why you don't see it in the currency list when you try to configure PayPal Standard in ShopSite. However, if you have access to your ShopSite data directory (via FTP, SSH, etc) you can manually configure this currency setting so that you can use NOK. Basically, configure everything else in the PayPal Standard configuration the way you want it, then find the paypal.aa file in your store's ShopSite data directory and edit it, find the line that currently would look something like this:

currency_code: USD

and change it to:

currency_code: NOK

Note that the next time you go to the PayPal Standard config screen in ShopSite it may reset this value in the paypal.aa file to USD, so you would afterwards want to check the paypal.aa file and make sure it still contains your NOK currency. Once newer versions of ShopSite are released that contain these new PayPal currencies in the default PayPal currency list you won't have to worry about that step anymore.
