Issues with Paypal IPN

Zip up those debug logs and PM me with a link to where I can download the zip file.
The PayPal debug logs are in /includes/modules/payment/paypal/logs/
And your site's PHP error debug logs are in /cache/ as myDebug-xxxxxx.log
Both sets of files will be useful.

Re: Issues with Paypal IPN

Courage9:

here is the basic info from one of the error logs:

[text] => An error occurred when we tried to contact the
payment processor. Please try again, select an alternate payment method, or
contact the store owner for assistance. () - (7) couldn't connect to
host

This is exactly what was showing in my Real Store...the one that's been down for two weeks now...

Help

P.S. I am now going to try and use a second Business Account with PayPal to see if it's isolated to something I can't think of...

There's no point using another PayPal account.

The problem is not PayPal.

If CURL is getting a "7 couldn't connect to host" response, then there's something amuck with your server configuration, preventing it from connecting.
