Paypal IPN Auto Return URL not working correctly

I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm setting up Zen Cart for the first time (one of the best I've seen) but am having problems integrating Paypal IPN.

  • I'm using ZC 1.3.8a.
  • I'm on a Godaddy shared hosting server and called to confirm part 80/443 are open.
  • I've checked the setup three times with Paypal and in Zen Cart.
  • When I do a test check out of my test product at $.01, paypal transfers the fee between accounts correctly but the Auto Return URL opens to a blank page (but it is the correct URL with some appended parameters)

Here are the errors I see in the log file:
Mar 29 2009 20:46 -- IPN INFO - POST VARS to be sent back for validation:

What is the likely problem?
