Problem Getting Authorize.net Integrated ... Need Help!

I could really use some help, folks!

First, before I even had a merchant account set up, I did a mock purchase to see what would happen, entering my CC info as one normally would. To my surprise, I got a "order confirmed" message! The order also showed up on the back and and I got an email confirmation of the order as well.

Now, I just established a merchant account which uses Authorize.net for the payment gateway. I entered the Login and the Transaction Key (and left the "Payment Category" set to the default "Credit Card") in the configure tab. I then tried to make an actual small purchase (with both my store and my Authorize.net account set to "Live")

The transaction definitely went through and was approved by Authorized.net. However, on the CS-Cart interface, I get a "Sorry, Service Unavailable" pop up. The order also does not show up in the back end either.

I noticed that there was an "MD 5 Hash Value" field, so I called Authorize.net and they walked me through how to get this setting (athough the rep said they were going to be phasing it out in a few months anyway). I also told him all of the above and he's convinced it's a shopping cart issue.

I tried both "authorize only" as well as "authorize and capture" settings. Same result in both cases.

What am I doing wrong?

Hello!

When you see "Sorry, Service Unavailable" pop up, you can find the issue in the page code. Please send this error here.

Check server error logs. Error should be logged there

You can right-click the Service Unavailable page and then select 'inspect'. The html shown should have comments related to the exception that was generated.

Problem solved. Thanks for the input guys!

Turns out the problem was due to another add-on causing mischief.

I gave the inventory managment software "Order hive" a test drive, and there was a line of code in it that was causing the error.

thanks
