I want to integrate CCAvenue payment gateway in my site. Is there any sandbox site available for CCAvenue to test payments? If any provide me the link.
CCAvenue removed the PDF from their website so I removed the official link.
Removed broken links. I found another copy but at this point it might be outdated.
https://docplayer.net/12395510-Ccavenue-world-integration-manual-version-1-0.html
Check this manual , it might be what are you looking for.
There is something about testing the integration on page 19.
I found another one which seems to be a more recent copy with a more up to date explanation.
https://jemds.com/data_pdf/1_CCAvenue%20Integration%20-%20Ver%202.0.pdf
From my experience, this is not a great app for sandboxing. If you download the manual (linked by #rgerculy you should see the information for integration. However, here is what must happen:
First, login to the merchant account and go to the integration section and download the sample code. There you'll see some PHP test code. You can probably save time by working this into your application.
Next, make sure to activate your remote merchant processing. By default, its deactivated.
Finally, it looks like you can use 4111-1111-1111-1111 to simulate a failure. To simulate success, you must use a real card for testing - less than $1USD - and put the term SUB-MERCHANT TEST in the extra notes text area.
There doesn't seem to be an easier way to do this, that I'm aware of. :(
To test your transaction on CCAvenue. Here is the step given by CCAvenue.
This section for all Clients. Now you're ready to test your account by doing Live transactions! Please keep in mind that you cannot test CCAvenue by using American Express or JCB credit card and also any of the Net Banking interfaces. Please use Mastercard, Visa, Diners Club or a Citibank eCard to do a test transaction. Also remember that while placing test orders, always put the words "SUB MERCHANT TEST" in the Instructions text box. After the transaction is successful, please log in to your CCAvenue account using your client ID and Password and cancel the test transaction. Please do not capture the transaction as this would constitute a "cash advance" against one's own cards, which our credit card companies and the payment gateways do not allow on the Internet.
Current Process:
Step one is to register in CCAvenue, and your account will be activated much sooner. And once your account is activated you will receive,
Merchant ID.
Link to activate your account and setup password for your CCAvenue account.
at your registered email address.
Once you activate your account and set up the password for your account, you can get the working key and access code in the dashboard.
To test your code, you can use https://test.ccavenue.com as form URL to CCAvenue website. All the transactions to this test URL will not be processed.
If you need to test your code from your local machine, you should write to CCAvenue service desk at service#ccavenue.com with your merchant ID and localhost URL to white-list. Else CCAvenue will throw error "Merchant Authentication Failed".
Hope this might help someone who is looking for a testing environment.
For testing ccavenue you have to mail your merchant id and register site to ccavenue help team and they will activate your account for test environment
By default: test account is not active in ccavenue. But the live payment gateway is active. You need to mail salessupport#ccavenue.com with merchant_id and domain names to be whitelisted. It will be activated in 24 hours.

step1--->Login to your dashboard--->Got to resources--->Web integration kit--->PHP kit
step2--->Open PHP kit--->Use non-seamless kit for integration
step3--->Open ccavrequestHandler.php---->mention the access code and working key(use the access code and working key of the same URL)--->check the post action URL i.e.https://secure.ccavenue.com/transaction/transaction.do?command=initiateTransaction (for the live environment)
and save the file.
step4--->Open ccavresponseHandler file--->Mention the working key---->save the file.
step5--->Mention all the mandatory parameters in dataFrom.htm
mandatory parameters--->merchant_id,order_id,currency,amount,cancel_url,redirect_url and language(value=en)
step6--->upload all the files on the server
step7--->click on check out
but I don't know where can be uploaded the edited PHP kit files, I am new in yii1 payment gateway integration.

I'm fairly new to the PayPal API and am a bit confused about using API signatures to attach to the REST API. I'm creating shopping cart software, and I'd like to allow merchants using the software to attach the system to their PayPal account using their API using PayPal username, password, and signature. They'd enter this information into the account settings when setting up their cart.
On the merchant's side, it seems like this is easily possible, and says to do this to grant API access specifically to shopping carts:
htttps://paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_profile-api-access (once logged in as a merchant).
I personally am using PHP to call CURL, though that probably is not important. What I don't understand is that in the REST API documentation, including the "make your first call" doc, it notes I should send my "clientid" and "secret," but not the merchant's "username","password," and "signature".
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/integration/direct/make-your-first-call/
Now, when I originally logged in as a developer, I was able to obtain my "clientid" and "secret," but that was for my application. I've successfully made test calls with them, using PayPal's test pages. But these of course seem to be for me, not for a particular client.
Now the "Classic API" documentation does have information on connecting to the SandBox using the merchant's info.
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/permissions-service/ht_permissions-invoice/
So I think I'm just mentally missing something, or misunderstanding something fundamental. Assuming I have both my developer credentials, and the API credentials of a merchant, what are the general steps in making a payment to the merchant (not me). What's the logical step I'm missing?
Thanks much to anyone who can help.
Unless corrected by Paypal folk, this seems to be the flow (just went through it):
Ask the merchant to add you as a User, I suppose with API access privileges (only)
They will set your user id and pwd, which they should then provide to you.
You'll then login with that User Id (not an email address) into Paypal (at this point, you're a "user" of that merchant/account) with whatever privileges your merchant provided you.
create the App in the developer site for your merchant - you'll notice that when you get there, it's the Merchant's name displayed (it's not "your" developer account)
At this point you should be set (sandbox and live REST credentials of the merchant from the app you created). One thing I noticed (good) is that it somewhat already helps you see what "live privileges" the account has..so it helps guide you as to what to integrate (scope) and/or advise your merchant to do - e.g. may or may not be eligible for direct credit card payments (only Paypal account payments).
Hth..
#EdSF and anyone else looking into this, I just received a response from PayPal merchant help. Turns out you were spot on Ed. They don't have this ready for REST. Seems pretty odd given that they're 1.) pushing REST on their developer site but 2.) showing that the signature set is how to connect to a shopping cart on their merchant side.
So answer is to use the old API for now, or have them go through the extra hoops of the steps you/they mention, instead of following the directions on the PayPayl site :-P Oh well. Their response in full below.
Hi ...
I am writing this email regarding your questions on PayPal Permission Service. Unfortunately the Permission Service is not available in REST API; however I will file feature request to our development team for their further consideration.
It is not possible to use API username, password, and signature in REST API because they are actually not the correct credentials. REST API uses Client ID and Secret for integration. If you develop your application for other merchants, you can ask them to obtain Client ID and Secret by creating apps in PayPal Developer Portal (https://developer.paypal.com). Here's the steps:
1) Go to http://developer.paypal.com and log into the website with PayPal account's login
2) Click 'Dashboard'
3) In the My REST apps page, click "Create App"
4) Enter the App name, and click 'Create app'
5) You should be able to see 'Client ID' and 'Secret' for 'sandbox credentials'. If you want to integrate with your live account, click 'Show' at the Live Credentials section.
Hope the above information helps. Thanks.
Sincerely,
...

We have used DoDirectMethod to credit card payment and recurring payment with CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile Method. But Some how i can not get error "This transaction cannot be processed due to an invalid merchant configuration.".
I found some solution for this :
1)I have problem like : Features that are not enabled for live transactions
2) If for use of REST API ,
I need to change my country then how can i change country or currency.
3) In paypal errorcode i found : Occurs when you have not agreed to the billing agreement.
- Then how can i agreed billing agrrement- need steps for it.
Please help me by providing steps of configuration or any other solution.
PayPal is confusing peoples/developers completely, i am also getting the same issue from one month on one of our client's website, i was used DoDirectPayment, and it works like a charm for test transactions, but as i make it LIVE it is was showing the same issue, i found that too, to performing transactions in LIVE mode we need to 'Enable' this feature for Direct Credit Cards, but many times i requested them (PayPal) to enable that feature, but all time they just received my Application Online and reponsed that it will take about 24 hours. I have also added extra information like SSN, EIN all that but they are so lazy or not active to do that.
At one point they are saying we need Website Payments Pro but i have not found a single link to register that, I found PayPal Payments Pro link at many sites and even in their site, these guys have a huge documentation on that website payments pro and dodirect method but not a single link how to register for that service or how they enable that feature for 'Live' mode.
And today i found they updated their developers site and make things a little different, also provided an extra method "braintreegateway" in order to process, and i tried that too using their sandbox account, its working with only PHP 5.4 and above, so old PHP version servers are unable to get that. And they also need to register your details at their end.
If i have already a PayPal Business account why do i need to register at every single method.
Sucked
up the pay-pal advance in magento . I have fill all the credentials in magento admin . BUt when i go to frontend and click pay-pal button it gives
PayPal gateway has rejected request. Security header is not valid
(#10002: Security error
i have googled a lot and found some suggestions like
Remove API Username, API Password and API Signature from
Admin->configuration->Paypal->API/Integration Settings. clear cache
and test again
i have tried all these but it still gives the same error.
Please suggest me what can be the issue
The Security header is not valid error is only caused for two reasons:
Wrong credentials
Make sure that you've put your API Username, API Password and API Signature correctly. Sometimes it happens that during copy and paste there is accidently a space added, this would trigger this error.
Doublecheck this settings in the SDK or in the admin panel of your third party shopping cart.
Wrong Endpoint
This error would come up if you send the data to the wrong endpoint. Make sure that you sending the live credentials and data to our live endpoint. When you want to test your store make sure that you use our test endpoint and the credentials from your sandbox test account.
If you are using a third party shopping cart, make sure that your store is running in test or live mode, regarding which credentials you are using.
You can check for your credentials here too:
FOR LIVE
https://api-3t.paypal.com/nvp?&user=xxxxxxxxxx&pwd=xxxxxxxxxx&signature=xxxxxxxxxx&version=70.0&METHOD=SetExpressCheckout&RETURNURL=http://www.paypal.com/test.php&CANCELURL=http://www.paypal.com/test.php&PAYMENTACTION=Sale&AMT=50&CURRENCYCODE=USD
FOR SANDBOX
https://api-3t.sandbox.paypal.com/nvp?&user=xxxxxxxxxx&pwd=xxxxxxxxxx&signature=xxxxxxxxxx&version=70.0&METHOD=SetExpressCheckout&RETURNURL=http://www.paypal.com/test.php&CANCELURL=http://www.paypal.com/test.php&PAYMENTACTION=Sale&AMT=50&CURRENCYCODE=USD
Just Substitute the user, pwd and signature and enter in your browser.
You should get ACK = SUCCESS if you have input your credentials correctly.
You can also get your credentials here : https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_get-api-signature&generic-flow=true
This error simply means your credentials are wrong.
Please check with the credentials. If you are using sandbox then you are supposed to provide facilitator related credentials.
Dont let the others fool you, they just type in stuff here they googled on the internet.
Look for the number you get here: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/api/errors/
Because the information provided by these code is a delicate matter, they display this error message instead of you account is locked, account restricted, limit exceeded and so on.
Thats what they told me, at least.
We also get this code from time to time, after hundreds of paypal transactions, so wrong paypal credentials from the side of the shop owner is quite unlikely, isnt it? ;)
If you are using PayPal Payments Advanced with Magento, you should be using your PayPal Manager credentials, and not your API Credentials.
This could be the reason you are getting Security Banner Header not valid 10002.
Here is the integration steps from Magento:
PayPal Advanced Integration with Magento
You need to setup Layout C in PayPal Manager PayPal Manager Login.
Make certain that you include your error URL, cancel URL, and Return URL. Magento is very good about telling you what URL you should be using.
After you have setup Layout C in PayPal Manager you need to use your Manager Credentials in Magento.
Just in case you need it, here is the information on setting up your Hosted Checkout Pages in PayPal Manager:
PayPal Hosted Checkout Pages
Here is the information on where to find your PayPal Manager credentials:
Partner: Your PayPal Partner ID. Most direct Merchants have PayPal as the Partner
Vendor: Your PayPal user login name. Also known as Merchant Login
User: The ID of an additional user set up on your PayPal account. Same as Merchant login if you have not setup a separate user id in PayPal Manager.
Use your API Signature Credentials from your PayPal account for the Express Checkout setup.
In my case everything seemed fine at Magento level. I asked client questions about PayPal, at which point they tried to login to the paypal.com site and were unable to (authentication failed). Account had been locked. Client was able to resolve with PayPal tech support directly, no Magento issue after all.
I got the same problem and found the problem is
I type the API signature character by charter, the character "I" is similar to "l"
As there are multiple "I" in the signature, I have to tested one by one via the link mentioned by Vimalnath.
Then damn it, it works.
Therefore, copy is a better way while being careful about the spaces at the front or end.
I try sample files inside latest php API for adaptive payment (1.96) and creating a primary pay. then did pay with my sandbox account and every things working fine. I use the same process and integrate API with my php application.I'm able to create primary payment and get payKey. I use payKey and do payment. I login with my sandbox personal account and click pay then see this problem:Your payment can't be completed. Please return to the participating website and try again.
Note: I did not change any config.ini information.I create multiple pre-confiq accounts in my developer and put them as sender or receiver through sample and application test.both API sample and application environment are virtual hosted on my local machine.this is paymentDetail object info
I found problem.
I was resetting test account and creating new test emails that noted on one suggested solution and forgot to replace new email in my integrated application.
by the way replacing new email solved my problem.
