Troubleshooting

Find your symptom and work the steps in order. For a specific customer-facing message, check the Error reference first.

The addon page is blank, shows only the license field, or "Access Denied"

  • Grant admin access. WHMCS addon pages require Full Administrator access. Confirm your admin role is granted access to RelyPay under Configuration → System Settings → Administrator Roles.
  • Activate the license. On first access RelyPay shows only the License Information form until a valid key is Active — the Dashboard, Providers and Routing tabs appear once it is. See Licensing.

Sync Required, or a checkout method is missing

Deployed files no longer match what RelyPay expects.

  1. Addons → RelyPay → Global Settings → Sync Manager.
  2. In Deployment Sync Status, use the per-component Sync action on any out-of-date row, or run a full re-sync.
  3. Check Vendor Dependencies — a missing provider path means that provider's files were not deployed; re-sync to restore them.
  4. Open File Integrity — it checks deployed files against a signed snapshot; re-sync anything it flags.

Healthy state reads: "All providers, sub-gateways, and deployed files are up to date."

Sync Manager deployment statusAddons → RelyPay → Global Settings → Sync Manager

Automate it

Enable Auto-Sync on Admin Page Load so mismatches self-correct on the next admin page.

Payments are failing

  1. Check Transactions (Addons → RelyPay → Transactions) — filter by provider/status to see which provider handled the attempt and how it ended.
  2. Test the provider credentialsProviders → open the provider → Test Connection. Expired keys are the most common cause.
  3. Confirm the webhook is registered in the provider dashboard with the events from the provider's config page. A missing webhook lets a payment succeed at the provider but never finalise in WHMCS.
  4. Check the Activity Log (Utilities → Logs → Activity Log) for "Signature verification failed" or "Webhook signature mismatch" — a wrong or missing webhook secret.

HTTPS required

Webhooks only reach a secure endpoint. Without valid HTTPS, webhooks fail and payments never finalise.

Routing picks the wrong provider (or never uses one)

  1. Review routing rules (Addons → RelyPay → Routing). Layers are evaluated in a fixed order and the first match wins — a broad currency or amount rule can win before the one you expected.
  2. Confirm the provider is enabled and fully configured on Providers — a half-configured provider is silently skipped.
  3. Check the fallback chain (set separately for INR and non-INR) names a working provider.
  4. Enable the matching sub-gateway under Setup → Payment Gateways — routing only runs for methods a customer can select.

Updates fail, or Update Now is disabled

Global Settings → Update Status → Check for Updates → Update Now. If it will not apply:

  1. Addon directory not writable"Addon directory is not writable": fix permissions on modules/addons/relypay/.
  2. Backup cannot be verified"Backup verification failed": ensure modules/addons/ is writable with free disk space (a backup is always taken first).
  3. License — a Leased license must be Active; for Lifetime, Update Now is blocked if Support & Updates has lapsed (the current version keeps working). See Licensing.
  4. Transient/network"Unable to check for updates. Could not reach the update server." or download errors: check outbound HTTPS and retry.

A failed update auto-restores files and database from the pre-update backup.

"This product requires the ionCube PHP Loader"

RelyPay is an ionCube-encoded build and needs a compatible loader.

  • Ask your host to enable ionCube Loader 13.0.2 or newer for your PHP version.
  • It is the same loader WHMCS requires, so a host already running WHMCS almost always has it.

See Requirements.

Still stuck?

Note the exact message and where it appears (checkout / admin / activation), grab the matching Transactions row or Activity Log entry, and contact support.
