PayPal payment gateway not working


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

Whenever I try to "checkout" with PayPal, the whole WHMCS freezes up, can't even do anything on the admin dashboard.

I've removed PayPal and added it back, but the problem persists.

Here's a video of my screen so you see what it's doing.

Just tried switching to that form and it worked,

you have to remember that Modern hasn't really been updated in years - so if you're using any recent (last few years) version of WHMCS, then you should think about migrating to using standard cart by default.

however, it took a full 60 seconds to go to PayPal (our payment gateway). 

which of the PayPal gateway are you using ?

I tried it a second time - same thing.  I fear users will think it's not working and click out... 

but when you use cc/dc, there is no such delay ?

I'm using the PayPal gateway on the Feature Gateways tab.

and it's setup correctly with the API details, IPN etc ??

When I use CC/DC (via Stripe) it takes a long time (60 seconds or so) and then finally times out, logging me out of the admin panel too.

then i'd be inclined to think it's not a specific gateway issue and something else is the issue....

does the same thing occur when you use Six and Standard cart together ? that should rule out whether it's a template issue and I suspect if you contacted support, that's the first thing they would tell you to try.

Yes, the PayPal gateway I chose actually links via my account (had to login).  So it's set up right.  And Stripe is right, too.

It was working before I added PayPal (a day or two ago).  Once I added that it broke!  I have contacted support.

please update the thread with their reply if they find the cause for this.

Have a look in the hooks folder and get rid of any hooks you aren't using.

We saw a similar issue a few weeks back when any invoice action would lead to a time out and it turned out there was an old quickbooks hook trying to connect to a non-responsive API which was causing the timeout.
