The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Paypal Direct Payments - Error Code 10747 - The IP Address provided is invalid.

Asked by oxygen_728 in Payment Processing Recommendation and Integrating, PHP Scripting Language, E-Commerce

Tags: , ,

I am setting up Paypal Website Payments Pro with OsCommerce. I set up curl properly on the server (I think), and am sending the proper information to paypal. When the order is sent to paypal for processing, all of the items (except the IP) are sent properly. If I don't type in a proper credit card, then it gives me an error saying that.

Every single time, on any computer, paypal returns the error "The IP Address provided is invalid.". The entire array is:
Array ( [TIMESTAMP] => 2008-06-08T00:41:48Z [CORRELATIONID] => 82232fd01b984 [ACK] => Failure [L_ERRORCODE0] => 10004 [L_SHORTMESSAGE0] => Transaction refused because of an invalid argument. See additional error messages for details. [L_LONGMESSAGE0] => The IP Address provided is invalid. [L_SEVERITYCODE0] => Error [VERSION] => 3.200000 [BUILD] => 588340 )

Sometimes the error code switches to 10747. In the $parameters array, the ip address variable is IPADDRESS.

I output the parameters right before I execute it with curl to check if the IP address is correct. It is, and I've tried hard coding valid IP addresses in there to no avail. I am sending a valid IP address to the paypal server, but it is not recognizing it.

I have set up a sandbox account with paypal properly and gotten the fake api credentials correctly. I've also tried this on the live version with my live credentials and received the same exact error.Start Free Trial
