Worth to mention (took me few hours to overcome). Distribution: Business-PayPal-API-0.52 Perl version 5.8.8 Running on Debian 4 In the apache error logs I see: 500 Internal Server Error at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/Business/PayPal/API.pm line 143 The reason for this bug was that ReturnURL and CancelURL where not enconded: Not working: ReturnURL => 'http://site.tld/index.pl?param1=something&param2=something_else' Not working: ReturnURL => 'http://site.tld/index.pl?param1=something\&param2=something_else' To resolve: ReturnURL => 'http://site.tld/index.pl?param1=something&amp;param2=something_else' By the way thanks for this great interface to PayPal!

Yes, this is addressed in the documentation under "PayPal Munging URLs." It's a problem with how PayPal returns URLs that have an ampersand (or other characters like '<' that would need to be escaped). Use semicolons if you can, otherwise wrap your URLs in CDATA tags.
