I got error in Using PaymentGateway Authorize.net,How to remove these error,

Pls help me…….

Fatal error: Call to undefined function send_request_via_curl()

2. In ARB specification, I read, that for general errors(expired CC is one of them), silent post url will not be called. I will check this in 7 days, but would like to get faster answer.

Thanks,
Ivica

I just tried to edit an expired credit card number in an ARB transaction through the authorize.net website (from the Tools menu). This seemed to work, now I’ll have to see whether and when ARB will charge the card. However, even if it does work, this is a manual process, you have to call the customer, get their new cc info… this doesn’t scale well. Automating email notifications (hopefully, *before* the credit card is expired) would be much preferred. By the way the authorize.net backend doesn’t let you edit and save an ARB subscription without filling in an expiration date. Maybe the API does?

I have an application that will be getting multiple payments each day. So what I want to do is check each one that is returned by silent URL and if it was successful, I need to update the expiration date in my database where the initial subscriptionID is stored.

Since I can’t really test this script because I am in test mode, can you please tell me if I have done this correctly in the script below?

I’ve moved the sending of emails and updating of database within the foreach loop. I then am not sure if this is the correct way to check the subscriptionID value.

// Flag if this is an ARB transaction. Set to false by default.

$arb = false;

// Store the posted values in an associative array
$fields = array();

foreach ($_REQUEST as $name => $value)
{
// Create our associative array
$fields[$name] = $value;

// If we see a special field flag this as an ARB transaction
if ($name == ‘x_subscription_id’)
{
$arb = true;
}

// If it is an ARB transaction, do something with it

if ($arb == true && $fields[’x_response_code’] != 1)
{
// Suspend the user’s account
…

// Email the user and ask them to update their credit card information
…

// Email you so you are aware of the failure
…

}

if ($arb == true && $fields[’x_response_code’] == 1)
{

//The APB transaction equals 1 (or OK) so update expire date in database now

$subscriptionID = $fields[’x_subscription_id’]; //is this correct???

$expireDate is configured here……….

$updatequery = sprintf
(“UPDATE listing SET expireDate =’%s’ WHERE subscriptionID = $subscriptionID”,
quote_for_safety($expireDate)
);

mysql_query($updatequery);
}

}//end foreach

One more question… i see the AVS field in the return list but not in the API. I assume that’s simply there because this output is shared with other scripts? Or is AVS another undocumented feature?

Here’s a list of all of the fields they return:

x_response_code
x_response_subcode
x_response_reason_code
x_response_reason_text
x_auth_code
x_avs_code
x_trans_id
