Paypal Plugin

Rails
1

I’m trying to install the Paypal Plugin from
Elctech.com is for sale | HugeDomains following the
instructions at HugeDomains.com

However on step 2 when I run:

./bin/wsdl2ruby.rb --wsdl
http://www.sandbox.paypal.com/wsdl/PayPalSvc.wsdl --type client --force

I get the following error:

FATAL – app: Detected an exception. Stopping … undefined method
`elementformdefault’ for #WSDL::XMLSchema::ComplexContent:0x8609f4
(NoMethodError)

In the PayPalSvc.wsdl the schema tag has the attribute
elementFormDefault=“qualified” which is the only elementformdefault
attribute throughout the file.

Is this something new that PayPal added that is just not supported by
soap4r? I am a soap newbie, so I don’t relish the thought of digging
into the library to try to fix the problem.

I don’t have a solution to this problem, which I encountered myself w
while back. It even got special mention in my e-commerce book as
being particularly broken. So, if you find a fix, please let me
know. :slight_smile:

Hm, this one worked for me:

Well I did finally get it working… The problem was that I had
downloaded the stable version of soap4r and you actually need the
nightly build. However I ran into some other problems after that and
basically decided to just go with Active Merchant. My client is
possible looking at an alternative Gateway anyway, so AM is a better
fit.
