PayPal Smart-Buttons (Subscription) update_client_config_error

I am trying to implement the PayPal-Smart-Buttons to my website for a subscription. I copied the code from the PayPal docs (https://developer.paypal.com/docs/subscriptions/integrate/#subscriptions-with-smart-payment-buttons). So my code looks like this:

<head>
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
  <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
</head>

<body>
    <script
         src="https://www.paypal.com/sdk/js?client-id=AZz6Px2hMTBBNvg8GvMiT8FuTTvATwoAMCLVGLt-On-iewuacyQv-d6LSQunDqK1KES4KHTGDU3Sgpsb&vault=true">
    </script>
    <div id="paypal-button-container"></div>
  <script>
  paypal.Buttons({
      createSubscription: function(data, actions) {
          return actions.subscription.create({
              'plan_id': 'P-64K047315T678654PL3W74YY'
          });
      },
      onApprove: function(data, actions) {
          alert('You have successfully created subscription ' + data.subscriptionID);
      }
    }).render('#paypal-button-container');
  </script>
</body>

Previously I've created two products and one plan for each product. Here are the configured plans:

{
   "plans":[
      {
         "id":"P-64K047315T678654PL3W74YY",
         "name":"AC-Bot Silver Subscription",
         "status":"ACTIVE",
         "usage_type":"LICENSED",
         "quantity_supported":false,
         "create_time":"2020-06-20T12:17:39Z",
         "links":[
            {
               "href":"https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/billing/plans/P-64K047315T678654PL3W74YY",
               "rel":"self",
               "method":"GET",
               "encType":"application/json"
            }
         ]
      },
      {
         "id":"P-9LX00946YY976221PL3W74ZI",
         "name":"AC-Bot Gold Subscription",
         "status":"ACTIVE",
         "usage_type":"LICENSED",
         "quantity_supported":false,
         "create_time":"2020-06-20T12:17:41Z",
         "links":[
            {
               "href":"https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/billing/plans/P-9LX00946YY976221PL3W74ZI",
               "rel":"self",
               "method":"GET",
               "encType":"application/json"
            }
         ]
      }
   ],
   "links":[
      {
         "href":"https://api.sandbox.paypal.com/v1/billing/plans?page_size=10&page=1",
         "rel":"self",
         "method":"GET",
         "encType":"application/json"
      }
   ]
}

The plans are active, but I've getting the error: "Uncaught Error: Api: /smart/api/billagmt/subscriptions/I-B9Y1J8J6HA9G/cartid returned status code: 500 (Corr ID: 4c5a81ed5a4db)".

Anybody experienced the same issue?

Solution
