About: Ian Buchanan

My call to PayPal and watching Dave’s video unfortunately only confirmed that I DO have a PayPal Pro (Payflow Edition) account and that I AM using the correct information for the Payflow settings in s2member. Recurring billing was also been verified as being turned on.

I’ve checked and rechecked everything 10 times and it’s still not working. Here is the most recent entry from my log file.

All I get is “Error #1. User authentication failed.”

Thanks … I suspect that the part that I am missing is having “Recurring Billing” on the account.

I’ll contact PayPal.

Thanks,

Looks like this person on Stack Overflow had a similar question — not about s2member, but about the different flavors of Paypal Pro accounts

Perhaps, I don’t have the recurring billing feature turned on?

Anyway, I’m hoping that whatever it is, it’s just a switch that Paypal needs to flip, and not another 2-3 day application process.
