Internal Server Error in Testing Mode?

[ihojmanb]

Since yesterday I'm having trouble with my testing credentials and testing cards. Whenever I hit my endpoint (served in localhost) I get the following error:

error:  mercadopagoError [MercadoPagoError]: internal_error
    at Request._callback (/Users/ianivhojman/code/sls-payment-checkout-api/node_modules/mercadopago/lib/request-manager.js:344:19)

}

the same function deployed in either staging or production works fine (with the corresponding credentials). Is mercadopago actually having trouble with their servers for testing or is this on my side?

Hello @ihojmanb!

I checked our dashboards and there is no sign of recent instability.

• Was this request working before?
• Could you please provide more details about what endpoint you are calling? Are you tying to create a preference our a payment?

Thank you!

hi @icaldana! it was my bad 😅 nevermind!

@ihojmanb I am running into the same issue and can't see what I am doing wrong, do you mind sharing what was the issue?

[ihojmanb]

hi @ferpintado! I really don't remember the exact issue I had, but i would check your mercado pago credentials, clear your browser cache if your hitting your input through it, closing vs code, restarting your terminal, etc

Thank you! will do that.
