Error 261?

drchilds — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 19:51:18 GMT

Anyone else getting failures with a Response Reason Code of 261 ("The transaction experienced an error during sensitive data encryption and was not processed. Please try again.")

Using AIM in test mode, and everything was fine until about an hour ago.

Did I miss a maintenance notice, or is there some kind of outage?

Thanks,

I'm seeing the same issue when trying to run test Card Present transactions.

I have also experienced the same error although it was working fine an hour prior to that. It is likely an Authorize.NET developer site issue.

This error is being caused by an issue that currently exists in our test environment. It is being investigated and I will add to this thread when the errors have resolved.

Thanks,

Phew, I too am getting this error after making some modifications to my credit card class. Glad to see it wasn't anything I did. Thanks for the update!

This issue has been resolved. You should be able to continue your testing without issue at this time.

Is there any update for test environment?

I'm also receiving this error out of the blue... Is there a similar issue with the test environment?

hello,

Is this due to authoroze.net test server down of something wrong from the development section, because I am also getting the same error from morning today.

Thanks
