Hi there,

I'm creating payment processor extension.  It uses the redirect method.  The payment gateway don't like 'Location: ' headers, so I have to redirect the user to the thank you page / card declined page using a meta refresh tag.

I need to display an error to the user when the transaction has failed. Is there a way set a error in the session so that it will be displayed when the user is redirected?

I tried using the pageRun hook, but I can't get hooks to fire in my extension.


Thanks for you help...

Hi Erik,


Thanks the advice.  I tried using:

CRM_Core_Error::createError("Card Declined by Bank");

I also tried using :

CRM_Core_Session::setStatus("There was a problem with your payment.", "Card Declined by Provider", "error");

But still no error was displayed on the page I redirected the user to.  Surely there is a way to enqueue a message in the system.
