Hi
I am trying to get up and running using active merchant and have been
following the article here
I have set up all of my sandbox accounts, downloaded the certificates
and pulled in all of the login info supplied by the sandbox account but
for some reason I keep getting “StandardError in
OrderController#checkout - Username/Password is incorrect” … although
I am pretty sure that is not the case.
My controller looks like this
class OrderController < ApplicationController
def checkout
creditcard = ActiveMerchant::Billing::CreditCard.new(
:type => ‘visa’,
:number => ‘the number supplied by paypal’,
:month => 1,
:year => 2010,
:first_name => ‘Test’,
:last_name => ‘User’
)
params = {
:address => {
:name => ‘Test User’,
:address1 => ‘1 Main St’,
:city => ‘San Jose’,
:state => ‘CA’,
:zip => ‘95131’,
:country => ‘US’,
:phone => ‘415-222-2222’
},
:ip => ‘127.0.0.1’
}
if creditcard.valid?
# Create a gateway object to the Paypal service
gateway =
ActiveMerchant::Billing::PaypalGateway.new(:login =>
‘mysandboxAPIusername’, :password => ‘mysandboxAPIpassword’)
# Authorize for 10 dollars (1000 cents)
response = gateway.authorize(1000, creditcard, params)
if response.success?
# Capture the money right away
gateway.capture(1000, response.authorization)
render :text => 'Hazaa!'
else
raise StandardError, response.message
end
end
end
end
I also have this in my enviroment.rb
Ensure the gateway is in test mode
ActiveMerchant::Billing::Base.gateway_mode = :test
Install the key
ActiveMerchant::Billing::PaypalGateway.pem_file =
File.read(File.join(RAILS_ROOT, ‘config’, ‘paypal’, ‘test.pem’))
does anyone have any idea why this is happening? any help would be
really appreciated.
you can see the page that is throwing the error here
