Paypal SERVER_COMMUNICATION_ERROR

Question

I am working on integrating Paypal payment with my android app.

This is my Paypal configuration code :

private static PayPalConfiguration config = new PayPalConfiguration()
        .environment(CONFIG_ENVIRONMENT)
        .clientId(CONFIG_CLIENT_ID)
                // The following are only used in PayPalFuturePaymentActivity.
        .merchantName("Integration Demo")
        .merchantPrivacyPolicyUri(Uri.parse(""))
        .merchantUserAgreementUri(Uri.parse("https://www.paypal.com/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full"))
        .rememberUser(true);

and here i am calling PayPalService :

Intent intent = new Intent(this, PayPalService.class);
intent.putExtra(PayPalService.EXTRA_PAYPAL_CONFIGURATION, config);
startService(intent);

But i am getting following error :

01-11 11:49:19.788 31868-8284/com.packagename E/paypal.sdk: request failed with server response:shutdown
01-11 11:49:19.803 31868-31868/com.packagename E/paypal.sdk: SERVER_COMMUNICATION_ERROR

I have gone through this, but no helps till now.

Looks resolved now with new version 2.12.5

Got this news from official android SDK github code, person from Paypal confirmed that it is now resolved. from this

I have updated the okhttp version to latest stable release in v2.12.5. Can you please update to latest version and confirm if you are now not getting this exception.

I was hardly able to reproduce this issue on any device, and so, would need your help fixing this issue. I will keep an eye on this issue promptly, and get it sorted out soon :+1:
