Help with paypal IPN please

**funtimesx** · 31 Oct 2007, 12:41 PM

Hi All,

We've just cut a site over to live PayPal and I'm having problems. All was working fine in sandbox mode. I had made a couple of very small mods to the PayPal payment module, but these were in place and functioning in sandbox mode.

It seems to be falling over doing the postback:

Code:

Oct 31 2007 7:36 -- IPN INFO - POST VARS to be sent back for validation: 
To: www.paypal.com:80
POST /cgi-bin/webscr HTTP/1.1

Oct 31 2007 7:36 -- IPN FATAL ERROR :: Transaction did not validate

To make it more confusing, I have another script in the admin area that initiates payments and does an IPN postback to almost identical code (that calls the same ipn_postback procedure) and it works.

Can anyone shed any light?

Thanks!

ETA: Running v 1.3.7 and have checked my code against the latest patch and it is up to date.
