I sympathize -- but I can offer no help (I still haven't figured this out, either).

Is this a public forum? If so, perhaps you can post a link for us?

Re: Paypal IPN and Payment Problems

Can't post a link as you must be logged in to my Paypal account to view it.

They came back with it is a ZenCart problem and not their issue.

So ZenGods... Any ideas why or what would return a : at the end of my email address?

Thanks!
Lee :)

Re: Paypal IPN and Payment Problems

I've installed the paypal sessions viewer / stuck orders to push my orders into the database, but every time i try to click the button "Move to Orders Database" a white page comes up with the words "No Input File Specified."

Can anyone help? Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance. :)

I am still at this end:

IPN WARNING::Transaction email address not matched. From IPN = [email protected]: From CONFIG = [email protected]In Zen Cart v1.3.6, a bug (from v1.3.5) was fixed, which handles cases where you're using upper-case letters in your PayPal email address.

[email protected]:

I also wonder why I can not longer POST anywhere other than this thread..... That isn't very friendly. Seems alot of people have this issues and I can't talk to any of them....If you are referring to archived posts in our archived section, those areas are read-only.

The : is a separator added during the display of debug output. It is not coming back from PayPal.

Re: Paypal IPN and Payment Problems

They don't say anything else. I just get that email address not match error when it comes back from Paypal.

I don't know if you read the last few pages of this or not so I will repeat.

This site AnimalArt had a perfectly working Zen Cart for 4 months. I am the host. I changed NOTHING.

An order on 09/28 went perfectly.

The next order on 10/06 was the first time it broke.

Something between those dates was changed at Paypal. I am sorry but it is a simple matter of deduction. I don't know why Paypal won't help me.

But I am getting rid of them as a processor as soon as I can figure out how to make the Google Checkout work in there.

I am not the most all knowing programmer, but I am logical and sane.

Does anything sound ary to you?

Re: Paypal IPN and Payment Problems

hello,

Im having the same problem. It was working properly before and then i started getting an email from Paypal stating that there is something wrong with my ipn url address. I didn't see anything wrong with it so i left it and then i just don't get anymore records when orders are made.

Im using version 1.3.5. If i upgrade to 1.3.6, will this get sorted?

By upgrading to v1.3.6, you'll at least have the known bugfixes applied.
That's all I can guarantee.

Re: Paypal IPN and Payment Problems

Check via phpMyAdmin in your orders table ...

Do you see new orders?

Check your settings on PayPal ... it has been known to reset settings and cause issues ...

Re: Paypal IPN and Payment Problems

i checked my cpanel error logs and i keep getting this error:

script not found or unable to stat: /home/domain/public_html/ipn_main_handler.php

the ipn_main_handler is the right place so i don't see what is causing the problem :(

Re: Paypal IPN and Payment Problems

Ok, i just checked my site via ftp and found out that my ipn_main_handler.php is in this address: /home/domain/public_html/shop/ipn_main_handler.php

and not: /home/animestr/public_html/ipn_main_handler.php

i don't understand why in my error log, i keep getting this-

script not found or unable to stat: /home/animestr/public_html/ipn_main_handler.php

why is it calling the file in this address when it's supposed to be inside the shop folder? do i need to change anything?

Re: Paypal IPN and Payment Problems

Go to Modules ... Payments ... PayPal ...

Save settings ...

Uninstall ... Reinstall ... Reconfigure ...

Check settings at PayPal website ...

What version Zen Cart are you running?

Re: Paypal IPN and Payment Problems

Ajeh,

I have done that already and managed to get it working again. Im just worried that maybe the errors im getting are the reason why paypal contacted me and disabled the ipn notifications.

I don't want this to happen again as it seems very unprofessional to go asking the customers what they bought. do you think there is a problem with that error log?

Re: Paypal IPN and Payment Problems

What version of Zen Cart are you running?

Clean install or an upgrade? If an upgrade, from what version and how did you do the upgrade?

Did you have to make any changes to the PayPal site?
