Questions

I am running Magento 1.4.1.0 and it came to my attention that upon paypal express checkout they were getting an error. I tested an order myself and everything went smooth..it went to paypal, let me log in, and let me hit the “continue” button in paypal on the review page. However after this it goes to this error

“

Server error.

The website encountered an error while retrieving XXXXXXXXXXXXX/paypal/express/review/. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.

HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfill the request.”

 

any clue to why it is doing this?? this is the first message I have seen with this and have not had any problems “that I know of” with paypal express… a BIG THANKS to any help..christmas time is coming close and ANY info is GREATLY APPRECIATED!!

    didn’t sleep last night…finally found an answer and it worked. Thought I would share it

    from kamark: (THANK YOU KAMARK!!!)

    1. If you have edited Abstract.php please re edit and change it back to how it was. If you didnt edited ignore this step. Line 141 should be
    $this->getLayout()->getBlock(’paypal.express.review’)

    2. Now download paypal folder from app/design/frontend/base/default/template
    3. Download paypal.xml from app/design/frontend/base/default/layout

    4. Now go to app/design/frontend/blank/yourthemename/template and rename your paypal folder to paypal1 (to be in safe side) now upload the paypal folder you have downloaded before.

    5. Now go to app/design/frontend/blank/yourthemename/layout and rename your paypal.xml to paypal1.xml (to be in safe side) now upload the paypal.xml file you have downloaded before. (Dont worry if you dont have a paypal.xml in layout directory just upload the one you have downloaded)

    This should sort out your problem.
