Paypal IPN link is broken on my site?

Hi there Zeners

My problem is that on my website in the admin panel under payment on either paypal standard IPN or express checkout the paypal IPN link is broken and not a valid URL this is what zen cart generates as a URL that you paste into your paypal IPN page in your account:

"http://www.spray-shop-supplies.co.ukipn_main_handler.php"

it should be

"http://www.spray-shop-supplies.co.uk/ipn_main_handler.php"

because of this I believe my customers and myself are not getting any IPN notifications and therefore no order confirmations, I haven't had many visitors to my site so I don't know when it went wrong. Do you guys have any clue how I could possibly fix this?

my version is: 1.39h

much appreciated

Try in your admin panel
First load the module and copy all pertinent info
Remove-uninstall the module
re-install the module replacing settings with what you copied

Hi Kobra

thanks for the reply, I have tried un-installing and re installing the module and the problem is still there,

I have a similar shop set up with a different hosting provider and that displays the correct IPN URL I even tried to cross reference all the entries for the ipn_handler.php and compare it to the code from my other shop and I cant find any differences

Do you have any other ideas?

thanks in advance

Sounds like your configure.php file has incorrect content for HTTP_SERVER and DIR_WS_CATALOG etc. ie missing a necessary slash
Or you're using a URL-rewriter that's not working correctly.

Thanks for that DrByte you the man

the admin configure.php was missing the trailing / that's fixed, however after testing I don't think that is the problem i'm still getting no IPN feedback after I pay in Paypal I get redirected fine but no order confirmation.

I noticed on other posts that it maybe a problem due to fasthosts and paypal as I am hosted with fasthosts, and with my hosting package I cant use express checkout as I get a error 500 and after looking at the server logs its because it times out and fasthosts wont extend the executable time so i'm stuck using payments standard which now decides not to work :(

Do you have any suggestions other than hanging myself?

cheers

Seems to me like the best solution is to use a more reliable host. The only things I've heard about fasthosts are bad.
