PayPal Checkout

Les Girvan asked on May 11, 2022 18:29

Hi Guys,

Portal Engine V11.0.49

I am having an issue with the PayPal checkout not working, I have completed all the settings as per these pages: https://docs.xperience.io/k11/e-commerce-features/configuring-your-store/checkout-process/configuring-steps-of-the-checkout-process

and : https://docs.xperience.io/k11/e-commerce-features/configuring-your-store/configuring-payment-methods/configuring-paypal

However, when I try and checkout the page errors with event log error message:

Description:Message: A potentially dangerous Request.Path value was detected from the client (&).

Exception type: System.Web.HttpException
Stack trace:
at System.Web.HttpRequest.ValidateInputIfRequiredByConfig()
at System.Web.HttpApplication.PipelineStepManager.ValidateHelper(HttpContext context)
Machine name:TVLOGVM09
Event URL:/Products & Services/Payment Page?o=11115379

Can anyone advise why this would happen? I just want it to redirect to PayPal url as added via the payment settings in the store configuration.

I think the '&' in the URL (/Products & Services/Payment Page) is causing the error. You could try changing the URL.
