Hi all,
Im implementing the Express Checkout, Paypal API using PHP.
I have no problem with the first step:SetExpressCheckout. I a have awk=success.
But in method GetExpressCheckout I get "Security header is not valid". I try to figure out the problem and i think found out maybe it was the curl not working well..
What i did i copy the whole URL:
https://api-3t.sandbox.paypal.com/nvp?USER=sanbox_1276609583_biz_api1.gmail.com&PWD=1276609589&SIGNATURE=AYVosblmD7khKkvvb.bNxvFT0OQ2A8GopwByEuC.CfMHt65VaUmvAEy-&VERSION=62.0&token=EC-3YG18670X88588437&METHOD=GetExpressCheckoutDetails
and paste it to the browser. This will result to:
TOKEN=EC%2d3YG18670X88588437&CHECKOUTSTATUS=PaymentActionNotInitiated&TIMESTAMP=2010%2d06%2d16T07%3a40%3a12Z&CORRELATIONID=e1a1e469bf066&ACK=Success&VERSION=62%2e0&BUILD=1356926...
But when that url executed in the function I made it will not work. Below is my function:
function mycurl($url,$querystr){
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $querystr);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
return $response;
}
I hope somebody can help on this. thanks so much.
Note:
- I Used the sandbox for this. I created a sandbox account, I have a Business account to represent a merchant, and a Personal account to represent a buyer.
And I used this:
endpoint url: api-3t.sandbox.paypal.com/nvp
sandbox url: www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr
This should not be the issue.
