HTTP 500 errors in Paypal IPN checkout??

[BDCreations]

I just went into our admin to see what payment modules were installed as we only use Paypal IPN and check/money order. Strangest thing...they are BOTH no longer even listed in the payment module in admin at all anymore!! There are authorize modules, cod, paypal epxress and paypal pro...where did the others go in the upgrade then??

How do I get them back installed? Could not locate either of them in downloads section to reinstall??

What other payment modules do you have enabled?
Did you remove-and-re-install all your payment modules (after recording all their settings) as part of your install steps?
What happens if you selectively disable them one-by-one (setting their status to False) and try a checkout?

I was just reading through help files and came across this article which states that the money order and paypal ipn are suposed to be buit in zencart functions...

So where the heck did mine go with the upgrade to 1.3.8a?? Neither are visible at all in my admin payment module... I want to keep paypal ipn and money orders!

Not sure which files you want me to compare? Please be more specific..ie EXACT directory locations to check!

I did remove and reinstall Paypal IPN...I also have money orders enabled...thats it.

I disabled both money order and paypal one at a time and tried to check out...each time same old http 500 error on Step 1 of 3 - Delivery Information main_page=checkout_shipping...

What now? What page(s) does this refer to so I can check them??

Just a thought-- what about currency of the upgrade? I had everything switched to CANADIAN funds which when I did it caused problems as everything of course was set to US...would something possibly have gotten switched back to US???

After you finish running WinMerge on all your customized files ( http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...394#post482394 ) you may find that things suddenly work.

You're looking for a simple "look here" answer when there is none.

Checkout uses:
/includes/auto_loaders/*
/includes/classes/*
/includes/extra_cart_actions/*
/includes/extra_configures/*
/includes/extra_datafiles/*
/includes/functions/*
/includes/init_includes/*
/includes/languages/english/*
/includes/modules/pages/checkout_xxxxx/*
/includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/checkout_xxxxx*
/includes/templates/template_default/templates/checkout_xxxxx*
/includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/*

and more

According to our server company we do not have access to the error logs..

Who are they?

Error occurs at stage 1 of checkout with shipping choices...on this page...

I'm confused ... why did you title this thread as being something wrong with PayPal IPN when your problem is happening on the shipping-details page ... which happens on the screen before payment methods are even considered?

Apologies..at this point my head is swimming in all the bugs I have had to change/fix I have little idea anymore where the errors are hoping a fresh head today and some answers from the boards will get me back on track :)

Thanks!!

I created the local directory and the configure.php page with the code you listed and uploaded it all to the site....nada

I still have no idea what this first step in checkout actually is..is it a shipping address error? an error in the 2 payment options? I am totally clueless where to even being to look..or what I am looking for? Changes should be in MY additions/changes not in code jargon right? cause there are ALOT of code differences in the new upgrade but nothing I did...
