An error has occurred.

why , i have set all settings right as it described in http://help.wildapricot.com/display/DOC/PayPal+account+setup but pasting PDT token, because i couldn't find the place to past it

Answer 1

I have seen this before and it's the most unhelpful error message in the world. However, it is related to either the merchant account or the buyer account not being verified. Log in to each one separately at http://sandbox.paypal.com/ and click the Verify account. Just follow the steps, it doesn't require any real life information.

Answer 2

Posting this in case anybody else runs into this problem. Both my seller and buyer sandbox accounts were verified and I still got this error.

For me this error was fixed when I did my testing in an Incognito window. I did 10+ test payments without error while before it would always show these errors after 2 or 3 payments.

I assume that this is a sandbox only error, because I have never seen this error on a live account (and probably did close to a hundred payments in the past using a live account).
