PayPal sandbox problem

davaxeman · #1 01-05-2009, 02:51 PM

Hi

www.thai-pure.com

When I set up the paypal button, in the URL box I put http://thai-pure.com/success.html, I also tried www.thai-pure.com/success.html. I go through the sandbox transaction to the end where there is a button 'return to merchant' When I click on it it won't re-route back to my website, I get an error message.

When I get the problem fixed, how do I cancel the sandbox and make PayPal live?

Thank you

You must first publish your success page for the paypal sandbox to find it.

When everything tests out OK and you want to go live
de-select the sandbox (remove the tick) in the paypal buttons properties box.

Hi

Thanks for the info.I was not aware that I had to publish a success page. In The tutorial it says to fill in the URL's and does not mention anything about publishing. So if I build another page, how will that re-direct the buyer back to my home page? Do I have to publish a page for failure?
Regards
David

I mentioned the success page because the sandbox was looking for that page.
You can make the link back to any page you wish as long as you put that page link in the paypal button properties box.

You also have to provide a page and the link back if the payment fails for any reason.
