4. Enter your shipping address to be in UK for example and enter some state, I used Nottinghamshire

[justStanislav]

Same problem

[medigeek]

happens to us too after a manual upgrade of enterprise edition. @kerlama @justStanislav are you using enterprise edition of magento2?

[kerlama]

@medigeek no, I am on open source one.

[justStanislav]

@medigeek no, community.

[medigeek]

@kerlama @justStanislav did you use manual upgrade or composer upgrade?
@fascinosum could you have a look at this please? some changes were introduced in Nvp.php ( 42c2672 ) that affect the paypal module, instead of a success page we end up with http error 500 and the error kerlama mentioned in the logs.

[kerlama]

@medigeek composer upgrade from 2.3.3.

[justStanislav]

@medigeek same way like @kerlama

[medigeek]

Thank you both. :) @kerlama I see you have already tested this on a vanilla installation as you have originally posted. I'm not sure if you can reply to the @magento bot "yes" or tick it, don't know how this github bots work heh.
Let's wait on @fascinosum or someone else to check this out.

[kerlama]

@magento give me 2.4-develop instance

[magento-engcom-team]

Hi @kerlama. Thank you for your request. I'm working on Magento 2.4-develop instance for you

[noeli-eshopguru]

Hello
I upgraded Enterprise Edition 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 manually. Then I got the same error.
HTTP Error 500
Also I can see an error in Nvp.php:1524.

Hi, I replaced some codes in function _applyStreetAndRegionWorkarounds(DataObject $address) to ones of 2.3.3.

        - $regionItems = $regions->getItems();
        - $region = array_shift($regionItems);
        - $address->setRegionId($region->getId());
        - $address->setExportedKeys(array_merge($address->getExportedKeys(), ['region_id']));

        + foreach ($regions as $region) {
           + $address->setRegionId($region->getId());
           + $address->setExportedKeys(array_merge($address->getExportedKeys(), ['region_id']));
           + break;
       + }

Then tested again. So it worked, but it was redirected to the order review page.
I can see the error message on the page and can't place the order.

Any idea?

[kerlama]

@noeli-eshopguru code from 2.3.3 works fine for me (_applyStreetAndRegionWorkarounds).

[kerlama]

@magento-engcom-team I was able to reproduce the issue on clean instance you gave me.

[noeli-eshopguru]

Hi @kerlama but why am I getting the error on the order review page?
And I have already enabled the review page skip option on the paypal settings.
Are you moving to the order success page correctly?

[kerlama]

@noeli-eshopguru yes, for me its working fine, payment is charged and I am redirected to success page.

[noeli-eshopguru]

Hi @kerlama, do you have any idea with my error?

[kerlama]

@noeli-eshopguru not sure, there are few places where this exception is thrown, see at which one it fails and then check if you have any custom observer which might affect on it.

Revert back the function _applyStreetAndRegionWorkarounds from 2.3.3 in vendor/magento/module-paypal/Model/Api/Nvp.php

[stu583]

@jackrevate

I can confirm that @joridos fix is working for us.

He has been unable to merge due to an error but it appears the error is at line 1618 which was already part of 3.2.4 core and he hasn't even touched! All checks for CE and EE passed.

[jonatanrdsantos]

@stu583 yes, the only one error is on a method that I haven't changed

[stu583]

@joridos

Yes I had a look and its very odd. I agree that it's not anywhere near the the method you edited. Maybe already buggy, shouldn't have passed previously and never have made the 2.3.4? I don't know.

Like I said its working perfectly for us. We are taking PayPal payments, in production, with no problems since applying your fix. Thanks for the contribution. 🙂

[ajwalks]

Yes @joridos fix works for us also. Thank you

[maxxeh1]

Personally I am getting very tired of issues arising in patch versions of Magento. 2.3.4 has introduced two major payment bugs - one for Paypal which should NOT have happened and one for certain third party vendor payment methods, such as Magenticity SagePay, see here: 2.3.4 Checkout Infinite Loop. How does this happen?!

[hostep]

It looks like Magento has released a hotfix for this problem on: https://magento.com/tech-resources/download#download2353

Maybe somebody running into this issue can test and report back if this fixes it for them?

[Emilietrepanier]

The patch did not fix it for me.
before I had an: internal Error..... Report ID: webapi
and now the an: Infiniteloo detected, review the trace for the looping path

[jackrevate]

Infinite loop detected appeared due to a third party extension 'Stripe' - they have released a newer version.

[Emilietrepanier]

We do not have stripe either and found that 1 third party tier pricing module was responsible.

[Grumag]

@Emilietrepanier Is it maybe from MageWorx, as we do have their extension installed, to add fees.

Yes it was MageWorx extension. We updated it and it's all good now.

[Emilietrepanier]

@Grumag For us it was Blue Jalapeno Tier Pricing

[diazwatson]

I have tested applying the patch @hostep mentioned in 2.3.4 Cloud instance and it works

[achleitner]

Anyone has a fix for this that actually works. Getting a http error instead of the magento success page with paypal express and braintree/paypal module. Nothing in this thread actually works. Thanks
