PayPal IPN

[webd]

In the Auto Return URL, I put the URL that Zen Cart told me to put into PayPal and I am getting an error, "We were unable to validate the URL you have entered. Please check your entry and try again." Is there a setting in Zen Cart that I missed?

Is it the URL (check) or do you need to get a Pro account with PayPal to acquire the credentials to properly populate the module? Just a thought.

It would have nothing to do with a Pro account.


What exact URL did you really enter?

While entering a URL for any accessible site may pass a basic test, there will be problems happen later when other general transactions (ie: a manual "send money" request or subscription, etc -- outside a ZC transaction) trigger an IPN which cannot be delivered. After a certain number of failed transactions, PayPal will disable your IPN service until you fix the problem.

We do have the Business account and the Instant Payment Notification link worked. Here is the link I am putting for the Automatic Return URL:

Have you tried going to that URL? It's not a working website domain let alone a working address.
