Dear Ed and List Members,
The fact that I am now receiving an entirely different error message makes
me feel
there might be some hope in processing with AuthorizeNet.  I have enable
SSL, and
now get the following error messages:
|||----------------------------------------------------------------
>   die errmsg(
>     "Real-time charge failed. Reason: %s\n",
>     errmsg($Session->{cybercash_error}),
>    );


> Route log failed. at /lib/Vend/Order.pm line 1724.
------------------------------------------------------------------|||

"cybercash_error"? -  I have done no cybercash configurations manually in
any of
the cfg files.

Checking lines 1718 through 1724 of Order.pm shows:
|||----------------------------------------------------------------
                        }
                }
                if($::Scratch->{mv_route_failed}) {
                        my $msg = delete $::Scratch->{mv_route_error}
                                        || ::errmsg('Route %s failed.', $c);
                        ::logError($msg);
                        die $msg;
                }
          } # end PROCESS
        };
------------------------------------------------------------------|||

Checking Vend/Payment does show the AuthorizeNet.pm:
|||----------------------------------------------------------------
.../lib/Vend/Payment]# ls
BoA.pm        ECHO.pm       Signio.pm    TestPayment.pm
CCVS.pm       iTransact.pm  Skipjack.pm  WellsFargo.pm
AuthorizeNet.pm  CyberCash.pm  MCVE.pm       TCLink.pm
------------------------------------------------------------------|||

Should I be happy that the "charge operation AuthorizNet failed" error
message is now gone?  Does this seem to signal progess?

Best regards,
Michael G.
