Trouble with PayPal in mobile terminal

[kalina559]

Hi,

I have some problems implementing the PayPal flow in an Android app, namely Pia-SDK keeps crashing when I try to use PayPal in app. I managed to make it work in our webshop (the money was successfully captured on PayPal merchant account), so I don't think it's a problem with setting up the PayPal account or making the Register call.

This is the call I'm making to register the app payment: https://test.epayment.nets.eu/Netaxept/Register.aspx?token=REDACTED&serviceType=B&customerCountry=DK&redirectUrl=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fdummy.htm&paymentMethodActionList=%5B{"PaymentMethod" %3A "PayPal"%2C "Fee" %3A 0}%5D&customerNumber=77359&transactionReconRef=1704699&orderNumber=1704699&currencyCode=DKK&amount=1300&merchantId=REDACTED

Then in my app I'm running PiaSDK.getInstance().startPayPalProcess(this, bundle, createHandler()) (createHandler() is our custom method) To compare, the currently working solution looks almost exactly the same, but with this line instead: PiaSDK.getInstance().start(this, bundle, createHandler()) After running startPayPalProcess() I'm redirected to the terminal and I see this for a couple of seconds:

Then the app crashes completely with this error in the logs:

java.lang.NullPointerException: Parameter specified as non-null is null: method kotlin.jvm.internal.Intrinsics.checkNotNullParameter, parameter terminalRequestError
        at eu.nets.pia.PayPalError$TerminalRequest.<init>(Unknown Source:3)

        at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:1067)

The SDK code is obfuscated so I'm not sure what's happening there, but I tried debugging it and it seems like the error is coming from PayPalActivity.class, specifically the line with a breakpoint:

Instead of Status.SUCCESS I get this.a.getStatus() == Status.THREEDSECURE.

Could you help me find what I'm doing wrong?

[kalina559]

Hi,

When can the hotfix release be expected?

[Miss-PiA]

Hi @kalina559 Can you please check if your issue has been resolved in v2.7.1 release of the SDK?

[kalina559]

Hi, unfortunately it didn't help, I'm still getting the same error when I'm using the the deprecated PiaSDK.getInstance().startPayPalProcess(this, bundle, createHandler())

I tried using the approach from your docs with ActivityResultLauncher, but I'm getting the same error.

Hi @kalina559

You are facing this issue only on test environment? And it's working fine on production environment, right?

[kalina559]

I'm currently investigating how to implement PayPal into our app so I haven't even tried using it in production environment.
