Problem with Paypal and missing orders

I get orders paid via paypal and im receiving the paypal payment email but order is not posted in admin, nor do I receive an email for the order.

I have tried:

http://www.mishobonsai.com/extras/ipncheck.php with this result:

IPNCHECK.PHP - Version 1.0

IPN TESTING - POSTING to PayPal via: ssl://www.paypal.com:443

IPN TESTING - Confirmation/Validation response: RESPONSE RECEIVED - Communications OKAY

Script finished.

http://www.mishobonsai.com/extras/ipn_test.php with this result:

Illegal Access

And this http://www.mishobonsai.com/extras/ipn_test_return.php with this result:

Warning: require(includes/application_top.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/camay123/public_html/extras/ipn_test_return.php on line 14

Warning: require(includes/application_top.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/camay123/public_html/extras/ipn_test_return.php on line 14

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/application_top.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/camay123/public_html/extras/ipn_test_return.php on line 14

Not sure what is my problem. Anyone ?

Re: Problem with Paypal and missing orders

I have made further test, here are my details:

I have a bit more details about my IPN problem with mishobonsai.com.

I have tried orders on mishobonsai.com with two methods:

paying with my mom paypal account and paying without login in but paying with credit card. Both are somewhat unsucessfull.

When paying without loggin with a credit card, paypal doesnt take you back automatically to zencart site, you have to click return to button....

I have tried with and without ssl, same result.

I have tried with:

http://www.mishobonsai.com/ipn_main_handler.php and
http://mishobonsai.com/ipn_main_handler.php

Same results.

I have tried both methods on pepperbasket.com (which is on the same server) but I beleieve it is zen cart 1.3.7 and no seo url. I got different result then on mishobonsai.com.

On pepperbasket, when paying with a paypal account, order is posted in admin before or almost at same time your are return automatically to zencart site after 10 seconds. Even If I dont wait the 10 secs, and close the broswer window, order is posted in admin.

On pepperbasket, when you pay without login in, you are taken to a payment confirmation page where you have to click return to button. Order is posted in admin, even if you dont click the return to button.

On mishobonsai, when I pay with a paypal account, I have to wait 10 secs to be returned for the order to be posted in admin. If I dont wait to be returned, order does not get post in admin.

Same for orders without login in, but paying with credit card, if I dont press the return to button, order does not get post.

I am almost 100% that orders on mishobonsai.com that I did not receieved the order but just the payemtn, are made via a paypal account that the client as log in, because of the difference in email I noted while testing.

Re: Problem with Paypal and missing orders

I might have found my problem.

I use winmerge to compare all file related to paypal ipn on server and in default archive of zencart 138a

All files on my server had a different end of line return. not sure which file had the unix and who got the windows.

I uploaded all files from archive related to ipn to server and voila it work.

I tried something else, I remove the ipn from admin, reinstalled it, and again, not working. Files had the same different end of line char.

Re: Problem with Paypal and missing orders

I am even less experienced. You uploaded those files how and where???? I am having the same problem with not being able to see my orders e-mail in admin. Could you really spell this out for me? I am website-builder (10%)
Please help. This is the last main problem I am having and then I think I can promote my site.
Thank You

Re: Problem with Paypal and missing orders

Ultimate SEO URLS seem to be the cause.

When I have the original html_ouput.php file, it seems to always work.

Re: Problem with Paypal and missing orders

I have never made any changes to that file. I just don't get why this is not working.

Re: Problem with Paypal and missing orders

Well would you believe it but I am now in your club!

Received payment but have no idea what the order is! This is the first time I have encountered a problem in 8 months of using Zencart with Paypal IPN.

I checked the SQL database for the order and it hasn't been recorded. The order number which should be placed on the order is yet to be used by the database.

I don't think I use any Ultimate SEO Urls and i'm using the most up-to-date version of Zencart.

My checks are similar to the first example posted on here.

Seems this has been a problem since 2004 according to older posts.

Doesn't any of the Zencart team know how to fix this or why it happens?

Hope someone can help!

Cheers

Jamie

Hi ,

I seem to really have nailed my problem. It was with the html_output modification for Ultimate SEO.

When I was with 1.37.1, I had the previous version of Ultimate SEO, 2.x, not the RC 3.0, and never encountered the problem. Now with 3.0RC I have the problem.
