Error connecting to AuthorizeNet on sandbox

[zan]

When I submit authorizeAndCapture (AuthorizeNetAIM) on sandbox it gives me this " Error connecting to AuthorizeNet" message. Is the sandbox down? I'm experiencing this since yesterday.

If you are using our PHP SDK, you may need to update to the latest version: http://community.developer.authorize.net/t5/The-Authorize-Net-Developer-Blog/Authorize-Net-Begins-In...

Hi , I have same problem : 

[error_message] => Error connecting to AuthorizeNet

please provide me solution.

I'm seeing this error since yesterday about 5PM EDT.  I'm using the PHP SDK using your instructions here: https://developer.authorize.net/integration/fifteenminutes/#custom Using the AMI method.

Part of the response is the following:

  public $error_message =>

  string(32) "Error connecting to AuthorizeNet"

Every other member in the returned response is NULL.

Please send help :)

OK, replying to myself, for me to get it working I had to turn off the VERIFY_PEER in the CURL call down in lib/shared/AuthorizeNetRequest.php

{code}

public $VERIFY_PEER = false; // Set to false if getting connection errors.

{code}

[digiflo30]

Hi again - and so a better way to deal with this is to NOT change code in the vendor directories directly, so when you instantiate your AuthorizeNetAIM object set it then.  Like so:

$sale = new \AuthorizeNetAIM;
$sale->VERIFY_PEER = false;

I just downloaded the latest version of the SDK and it still has this problem.

I had to make one additional change to the code to get it working.

In lib/shared/AuthorizeNetRequest.php:

if ($this->VERIFY_PEER) {
   curl_setopt($curl_request, CURLOPT_CAINFO, dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/ssl/cert.pem');
} else {
   if ($this->_log_file) {
      file_put_contents($this->_log_file, "----Request----\nInvalid SSL option\n", FILE_APPEND);
}
   // add comment below or the api will silently fail if VERIFY_PEER is set to false
   // return false;
}
