I’ve created a new topic since my issue with paypal ipn hasn’t been resolved.The issue has been closed by the moderator I guess( http://xparkmedia.com/support/topic/paypal-ipn-update/ ).
Replying to the latest post over there:
I’m using version 2.2.2 and I haven’t had any cache plugin installed.It’s also not working on my local machine too.Pls provide some help or let me know where I’m going wrong.
if you are testing paypal IPN in your local computer it will never work because paypal can’t access your local machine, it needs to be on a accessible server.
if you want to test if your server is receiving the paypal call try posting the txn_id variable ($_POST[‘txn_id’] ) to your home page, if you get a empty page your are good if you get and error or 404 page your site is not receiving the call.
I you get and error please let us know what it is.
Apologies for being late in my replies.
I would like to brief my scenario… after making a payment i’m getting a transaction id as I can see the same in my browser url .Following is once such url:
I’ve implemented paypal myself a couple of times and tested in on my local machine numerous times and had never faced such a issue.
I guess what’s happening is I’m able to do the payment but the order no are no coming as null, due to which the transaction number and total payment is coming as null.
Pls reply me as I’m having difficult time sorting this out.
I even tried the above with the latest version 3.0
PayPal IPN works differently, PayPall sends a “Post” request after your transaction to a IPN script on your website, if PayPay can’t get to your server you will never get a notification.
Also you should not be using or getting “Get” request to get back to the site that is the link that you are getting, the plugin for extra security only accepts post request.
What is your PayPal service? and from what country and currency are you testing?
Ya I know how Paypal IPN works and have myself implemented a couple of times in different websites…. but never face this sort of issue.
I’m using Paypal sandbox service.I’m using this from India and I’ve tried this with default US dollars as well as British pound too.
Am I missing some configuration changes…. as I’ve just installed it and entered my seller sandbox details in the appropriate field.
Thanks for all your help.
Pls let me know.. waiting for your reply
I’m able to get the payment successfully and get the requested email to my email address, but on the receipt it is not showing the transaction number as well as the total payment values nor the download files link………..
Also where can we’ve the field where the customer would enter the email address so he could get the email too with the download files link in it.
Let me know whether I should create a new post for this
