Solution of Unable to communicate with the PayPal gateway in magento 1.7

I am using magento 1.7.0.0 version and it is quite advance then older version. When i have integrated Express Checkout in my localhost magento admin as it is quite simple, you can get many tutorials for it. But the main problem come in front of me when i placed an order using Paypal Express Checkout., it display an error msg "Unable to communicate with the PayPal gateway" ..

Solution : The fix for me was to disable SSL verification at configuration >> system >> payment methods >> PayPal payment solutions >> Enable SSL verification . If you were testing on the localhost as well, re-enable the option on your live site to check whether it works. Otherwise just disable it until a proper fix has been found for magento 1.7 +

SSL Disable

I think it may help you  !!!!

    I am having the same problem with 1.7.0.2 as well and this does not fix the issue. It has been workin fine for several months and just out of nowhere this is happening. I didnt make any changes in the magento backend or with any of the code. Any other ideas?

    I confirmed this works. You just have to disable SSL in 2-3 places. Just open all of the hidden tabs under Payment Method and turn to NO.

    I believe this problem is a server problem because when I test it on both hospapa and justhost servers, it works perfectly but not in my server. There must be something that needs to be installed on the server and I have no clue what it is.

    You could check your server firewall has the IP address ranges for PayPal added to its outbound permitted?
