I have integrated the paypal recurring using express checkout. The recurring profile created successfully.
I need to update the recurring billing amount before every recurring cycle. For that I am using 'UpdateRecurringPaymentsProfile' hash call. But I am not able update the amount of recurring billing.
It is always giving me error.
My code is
$nvpstr="&PROFILEID=I-DB8HMA6R7F8T";
$nvpstr.="&AMT=".urlencode('50');
$nvpstr.="&CURRENCYCODE=USD";
$nvpstr.="&PAYMENTACTION=Order";
$nvpstr.="&BILLINGTYPE=RecurringPayments";
$resArray=hash_call("UpdateRecurringPaymentsProfile",$nvpstr);
and response is:
Array

[ACK] => Failure
[L_ERRORCODE0] => 10001
[L_SHORTMESSAGE0] => Internal Error
[L_LONGMESSAGE0] => Timeout processing request
)
Please suggest.
Is it possible to update recurring amount in paypal express checkout?
Yes, it is (but not always) possible because there are limits in what is allowed to do to do and what not.
This is documented in detail in the Integration Guide of Express Checkout under Handling Recurring Payments.
For UpdateRecurringPaymentsProfile the error code 10001 with short message Internal Error and long message Timeout processing request is not specified (see: API Error and Warning Codes).
In cases the error is not specified, you need to contact Paypal support and ask for details.
According to Stackoverflow this problem happens from time to time:
Paypal UpdateRecurringPaymentsProfile returning internal error (4 Nov 2014)
Is it possible to change only AMT using UpdateRecurringPaymentsProfile PayPal? (28 Nov 2014)
and users having it do not share any further information.

I has created sandbox business account for us country, added balance, upgraded to pro, on modal in settings tab: PayPal Credit- on, login with pal - all these steps are done. copy the credential under api tab and pasted them to code you provide.
But while make payments. I got the above mentioned errors. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
Your account where it calls the API should be upgrade to PRO before you make the DoDirectPayment API.
This error usually occurs if you don't have a business account. You must have a business PayPal account within a PayPal Payments Pro-enabled country to use the Direct Payment API. The absence of a home or customer service phone number on your PayPal account can also trigger this error.
Solution
If you have a business account and you get this error, check your PayPal account profile and make sure it includes a home phone number or a customer service phone number. Update your profile if necessary.

I have created buyer and seller account from PayPal developer site.
Account type: Buisness-pro
And fill all right api detail's but this error is coming:-

Business-Pro can actually mean one of two things.
Website Payments Pro 3.0 - This is what uses the DoDirectPayment API
Payments Pro 2.0 - This uses the PayFlow API
In your case it looks like you're approved for "Pro" so you're trying to use the DoDirectPayment API, but the error you're getting means that particular API is still not enabled on your account.
This could mean that you simply cannot use DDP on your account, or it could mean PayPal simply didn't activate it for you since PayFlow would be the assumed gateway. Technically, 2.0 should support both of those APIs.
If you call PayPal and let them know you already have DDP fully integrated and ready to go based on the fact that you had "Pro" enabled, and you would rather not re-develop everything in PayFlow due to time / cost restrictions, they will probably go ahead and enable DDP for you so that this error will go away.
Or, you could go ahead and use the PayFlow API instead. It looks like you might possibly be using my PayPal PHP SDK..?? If so, you could get PayFlow setup instead of DDP within a matter of minutes. If not, I recommend you take a look at it for future reference. It supports pretty much every PayPal API they offer and greatly simplifies things.
If you're interested in more details on this you can check out my article on The History of PayPal Payments Pro.
I am using paypal adaptive payments and i had sandbox account for this to be test for last 2 months it was working very much fine and all the transactions were successfully made by using sandbox.
Now what i'm trying to do is want to go live with adaptive payments get all the necessary information api id,password,signature, ap id etc. the problem is i'm facing right now is getting this error

)
and i dont know where is the problem can you please help me out
The error is because you Adaptive Payment application is not approved for Chain Payments and you are trying to execute Chain Payments API.
Go to apps.paypal.com and check(I can see that you are not enabled for chain Payments). In order to resolve the error, create a new application at apps.paypal.com and check "Chain Payments" and then use the new APP-ID to initiate this API call. It is also possible when your business/premier account is not Verified
P.S Btw, it is not possible to update the current application as it is already approved.So create new one.
I have coded first time paypal doDirect Method and it is working fine on sandbox mode but in order to make it live it gives the following error:
[L_ERRORCODE0] => 10501
[L_SHORTMESSAGE0] => Invalid Configuration
[L_LONGMESSAGE0] => This transaction cannot be processed due to an invalid merchant configuration.
[L_SEVERITYCODE0] => Error
So I then googled and found that my client needs to have a agreement which the Payments Pro costs $30 per month.
Is there another way to do it without it costing me this money?
You could use Payments Advanced for only $5/mo instead of $30/mo.
If you're a high volume I could get you setup with PayFlow (the new Payments Pro) without any monthly fee. If you're doing $5k/mo or more in volume contact me directly and I can get you hooked up.
Hi All I am implementing recurring payments with paypal. My paypal script is already running now embedding recurring payments in it. I have searched a lot and not find any useful material. I found from Recurring some material. I implemnted the code of createrecurringpayments.php from here and changed the variables accorinding to mine. I redirect browser to this file from DoExpressCheckoutPayment.php when transaction is completed. But at createrecurringpayment.php I always get the following error.CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile failed: Array ( [TIMESTAMP] => 2011%2d03%2d28T11%3a44%3a30Z [CORRELATIONID] => 81d0c488123c4 [ACK] => Failure [VERSION] => 54%2e0 [BUILD] => 1776465 [L_ERRORCODE0] => 10002 [L_SHORTMESSAGE0] => Security%20error [L_LONGMESSAGE0] => Security%20header%20is%20not%20valid [L_SEVERITYCODE0] => Error ).
there may be below 4 causes for this type of error you found..
1. You have your PayPal module configured to "Sandbox" but have not used Sandbox API credentials.
2. You have your PayPal module configured to "Live" but have not used Live API credentials.
3. You have mis-typed one or more API credentials entries, including but not limited to leaving trailing spaces.
4. You have deleted and/or recreated new API credentials in your PayPal account but have not copied those new credentials back to your store.
Just check it out..it may helpful to you..
Thanks.
I have found the solution.... I was using paypal Express Checkout.. With this it is not possible to implement recurring payments...
