After returning from PayPal, Validation fails, "State can't be blank" about spree_paypal_express HOT 9 CLOSED

Same issue here. Have you already solved this problem?

The missing "State" attribute refers to address, not to a state machine model. Looking deeper...

I upgraded to 1.0 and was hoping it might solve the issue, which I have only seen with one customer. One problem is that I can't reproduce the error. Later today, I will take a look at my production logs to see if the issue has recurred.

The issue has recurred ... this time with a customer from Norway.

It looks to me that the error must be raised when the checkout controller assigns the returning PayPal address to @order.ship_address and then tries to save it.

One way to fix would be to check whether the returning state is blank, and if so, to skip changing the ship_address.

Actually, I think my preferred solution would be to eliminate the overwriting of the Spree shipping address altogether. In my experience, the Spree address is more likely to be correct, since they must enter it at the time of order - while it is more difficult to change a PayPal address, which is stored over a longer period of time. Or, at least, if we are going to override what they entered, we should ideally give them the opportunity to confirm that.

Ok, so setting "No shipping" via admin interface will solve the issue.

I have this issue today ... but it happens only when selecting credit card in Paypal account ..
If user select his Paypal account , processing return is OK
see logs in gist : https://gist.github.com/erwin/5037469

It seems that using CreditCard in Paypal is returning user infos ( address ) without the 'state' info

sorry I may have posted in the wrong git .. should have posted it in Spree .. but it's related ...

@kennyadsl Can you elaborate on the effects of changing No shipping?

@jumph4x As far as I can remember ( it's a 8 months ago comment :) ) setting to No shipping will prevent PayPal to pass address data to spree or viceversa.
