Zen Cart - Payflow PRO module

Problem with Payflow Pro module on Zen Cart ecommerce

[parazeno]

I am new to Zen Cart. I have not been able to make the Payflow Pro payment module to work.

I have looked at the posts on Zen Cart's support site, and have not found applicable info. I hope to find here a webmaster who has some experience of this.

Here are the specifics of what I am using:
- latest version of Zen Cart
- running on linux
- VeriSign Payflow Pro payment module dated 2005/1/24 and described as the enhancement that no longer requires the Pfpro SDK to be compiled with PHP.

I have not "recompiled the pfpro module with sdk" (whatever that means) given that the script specifically says that this version doesn't need it.
However, I noticed when I edited the info for the VeriSign module that it said: "To use Linux/Unix, you need to compile the --with-pfpro support into PHP from the Verisign SDK."

----

When I try a transaction (test or live), I get the following message at stage 2 of the checkout process: "There has been an error processing your credit card, please try again".

Based on posts I read on the Zen Cart site, I went to the VeriSign site to obtain the "test.sh" script. When I run the script, the transaction is not authorized. I had read in the previous posts that somebody had had authorization problems because of a password with a "$" character. My password had only regular letters and digits.

The problem appears to reside specifically in running the module because:
- my VeriSign account works well otherwise (when I enter transactions myself on the VeriSign site)
- I obtained a test password from Authorize.Net to test whether Zen Cart worked. The Authorize.Net transactions worked fine.

So I don't know what to do.

When you contacted Verisign support, did they give you any more information on your test transaction? Are you also using a test CC or a real CC? Is your gateway still set in test mode?

I did not contact VeriSign support because it looked to me like the problem had to do with Zen Cart, not with Verisign: my regular Verisign account works fine (I enter transactions through the Verisign Manager site).

The settings on my VeriSign account are set to work for both live and test transactions.

Within Zen Cart, I tried both live and test transactions (for the live ones, I used my credit card, and attempted to purchase a $1 item).

As for the test.sh test, it was done with just codes supplied on the VeriSign website.
