Checkout Error - will Paypal IPN help?

[Guest]

I have heard from a few customers (and gotten myself) an error page after completing payment at Paypal when you try to go back to our site. I pasted the message below (I replaced the real site info with 'host' and 'store.com - I wasn't sure if certain info was better kept off public boards? I hope that's ok!)

 

It looks like this:

 

>>

Warning: fopen(/home/host/store.com/home/host/store.com/catalog/qb_sale/qb_sales.iif): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/.lally/host/store.com/catalog/includes/qb_iif_sale.php on line 105

 

Warning: fputs(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/.lally/host/store.com/catalog/includes/qb_iif_sale.php on line 116

 

and on like this citing lines 116, 147,154,158,162,168,176,193,194,195,288,339,351,359,362 and then

 

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/.lally/host/store.com/catalog/includes/qb_iif_sale.php on line 363

 

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/.lally/host/store.com/catalog/includes/qb_iif_sale.php:105) in /home/.lally/host/store.com/catalog/includes/functions/general.php on line 29

 

>>

 

And that's it. Is this something I can fix, or would installing the Paypal IPN avoid this? I personally get it every time I place an order and I've gotten a few emails about it which makes me wonder how often it does this. But I don't believe it's every time...

 

Any advice?

Not sure what the qb_iif_sale.php file is haven't seen that one in my installation - but on the general.php - go to that file and make sure there are no white spaces at the end of the file.

 

Navigate to the end of the file using a good text editor (notepad will do) and press delete to remove all white spaces. - This is often the cause for the headers already sent message.
