Paypal $0 and 1 item displayed.

[theodin]

Hi all,
I've searched for a few hours and for all the things I've tried, I've no success.

Problem: I set paypal up, and then I make my order as a customer, proceed to the checkout and then the paypal website. When i get there, paypal displays "MyCompany" 1 (item) and then a blank space for me to enter what I will pay. Shipping comes up as $0 too.

Is this correct? I understood that a list of items that have been selected should come up there at the very least, as well as shipping costs.

Troubleshooting so far:
* CHMOD (even 777 with no success) on the ipn_main_handler.php.
* ipn_main_handler.php when called from the browser returns a blank page.
* company primary email address is exact, including case.
* both ipn and other page specified in Paypal correctly.
* problem exists in 127d and 1301 versions.

What exactly am i supposed to see? If the fsock problem exists, what do I need to tell my ISP about the changes required for the firewall? Can i test the rule doesnt exist somehow myself before calling them?

Any help would be a million times appreciated!!

Hi Kim, Hope you recieved the URL I PM'd you. Further to the information above, I've tried to read more about Paypal, and came across API access permissions and API credentials. I think these might refer to me If I am using zencart to take the credit card number etc, and give payment details to paypal.... is that correct? or do I need to set that up? (I've not set it yet, as I haven't once seen anyone instructing to do so...)

Thanks again all!
