PayPalPaymentViewController Crash upon server communication failure

[johnrogers]

I am attempting to test using the Sandbox. For some reason, using the credentials found on the Developer website, the app is failing to connect with the servers when I try to make a test payment. Works find in No Network "Mock" mode.

Aside from that issue, though, after clicking "Okay" to the alert view which says "There was a problem communicating with the PayPal servers. Please try again.", the app crashes. Here's a screenshot of the alert view I tapped:

After tapping 'Okay', I get the following errors:

*** Assertion failure in -[UITableView _endCellAnimationsWithContext:], /SourceCache/UIKit/UIKit-2903.23/UITableView.m:1314
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'Invalid update: invalid number of sections.  The number of sections contained in the table view after the update (3) must be equal to the number of sections contained in the table view before the update (3), plus or minus the number of sections inserted or deleted (0 inserted, 1 deleted).'

Obviously just the table view row count not being updated properly, but an annoying little bug nonetheless.

If you could advise me as to why the sandbox isn't working, that would be great, too. 👍

@johnrogers Thanks for reporting this we will investigate!

@johnrogers Thanks again for reporting this bug. We've fixed it and released an updated SDK.

Sandbox can sometimes be a bit ornery. This morning it seems to be working correctly for us. If you continue to experience any problems, though, let us know!

Thank you Dave!

It was because I was using the same address as both sender and receiver of a test transaction. Had a dig your documentation to find out I had to do this. May I suggest you make this fact more clear in the documentation?
