ipn_main_handler.php not working properly?

[DrByte]

You can use both if you like, but that just creates confusion for your customers when they see two PayPal options and don't know what to choose. If a customer has to think "um, which one?", you slow them down during the most important phase of shopping: checkout/payment. Too many choices can cause them to stall, which could cause them to get sidetracked, and you lose a sale.

Express Checkout lets them accelerate through checkout slightly faster and is somewhat more reliable than the IPN method.

I am having the same problem when using PayPal express, the ipn_main_handler.php??type=ec comes up blank...

I installed zen-cart-v1.3.7.1-full-patched-07052007, and also applied PPEC-137-patches-June17.zip.

My hosting plan is GoDaddy Deluxe Hosting - Linux with Standard SSL installed.

PayPal log says: [CURL_ERRORS] => (7) socket error: 110

and IPN script says:
IPN FATAL ERROR :: Could not establish fsockopen.


How can I resolve the problem? Thanks for the help.

I have CURL for GoDaddy setup yet I still get the SSL error..

CURLTEST.php

Array
(
[field1] => This is a test
[statuskey] => ready
)

Yet the IPN_CHECK.php gives:
