I have received a bunch of different errors, although some of my sandbox transactions are going through. This one, however, seems to be fairly persistent. Paypal sandbox is so slow and buggy I am inclined to believe the problem lies somewhere with them. However, here it is if someone has an idea of what the issue might be:

     Sorry. A non-recoverable error has occurred.

    Return to home page.

Error Details:

Array

    [callback] => Array
        (

)

I hate being a n00b 

Is this the correct syntax for the password?

define( 'CIVICRM_SMTP_PASSWORD', password );

Thanks, I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't work and then I realized there are 2 civicrm.settings.php files in Joomla. One is in the administrator directories and the other is in the user directories.

Thanks for the help and advice, but 1.9, I'm told, is the only one that works with Joomla 1.0.X and the whole site is only going to be up for about 6 months because it is a campaign site.

You guys have done awesome work and you can expect a contribution from me for your efforts.

Thanks again.

all set there, thanks again.
