Flask Debugging Guide - Payment Integration

===========================================

Common Issues & Solutions


-------------------------

1. Payment Always Fails


- Cause: Wrong Paystack Secret Key
- Solution: Double-check .env file and ensure environment is loaded.

2. User Info Not Saved to DB


- Cause: Logic error in callback route or missing db.session.commit()
- Solution: Log the request data and ensure you commit the new user.

3. CSRF Token Missing


- Cause: WTForms CSRF not configured
- Solution: Set app.config['SECRET_KEY'] and use {{ form.hidden_tag() }} in
forms.

Logging Strategy

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

@app.errorhandler(500)
def server_error(e):
return "An error occurred", 500
