PayPal installation - Error 200

[airmale]

I must be typing the path wrong. According to directions, I have to edit this part in the donate/includes/library.php file:

// the path needs to be updated to include your api.php
$includes_folder = dirname(__FILE__);
require_once("$includes_folder/path/to/global/api/api.php");

if the path is ../formtools/global/api/api.php what should the above line(s) look like?

Update - this code:

// the path needs to be updated to include your api.php
$includes_folder = dirname(__FILE__);
require_once("$includes_folder/../../formtools/global/api/api.php");

produces an "Error 200" instead of my usual "not found" errors.

Hi Airmale,

If the path is ../formtools/global/api/api.php, the code should be:

PHP Code:

// the path needs to be updated to include your api.php
$includes_folder = dirname(__FILE__);
require_once("$includes_folder/../formtools/global/api/api.php"); 


The 200 error you mentioned - is that a Form Tools error code? If so, check out:

Hi Ben,
Success! I think clearing the browser cache helped. I did need to start the path with a double /../../ On to step 2 of the tutorial.

Excellent! Glad it got sorted out. Setting up PayPal enabled forms is always one of my least favourite jobs....

And thanks very much for the donation! :-) It's very much appreciated!
