Test Notification
It's important to test the notification before making transactions. You can test the notification by
setting the Method to HTTP POST and use the correct url that is described above. If the result is
[Accepted] the notifications are working. If you want to use SOAP, assure the HTTP POST method
returns [Accepted] before switching to SOAP.
If the result is not [accepted] you will see a error message. Above this error message you will see
the reason why it is not working. The message that could occur are:
• PHP_AUTH_USER and PHP_AUTH_PW are empty
Authentication is failing on the Magento server, probably this is because the webserver
that Magento is on is running PHP in CGI mode. See “CGI mode” in this manual for more
information.
• PHP_AUTH_USER and/or PHP_AUTH_PW are not the same as Magento setting.
The username and password in the back office is not the same as set in Magento.
• merchantAccountCode is empty in Magento settings
• MerchantAccount in notification is not the same as in Magento settings
