Recommended Posts

Posted

this is an old version of ipn that came with webmakers version of osc

 

everything had been working fine till the server that host the site was moved to another box

 

now the order isnt updated , the paypal ipn test works tho .

 

i did set the auto return on in paypal and the cart doesnt empty . my purchases are still there

 

 

ive spent hours trying to sort it to no avail

 

can someone post a quick check list of what needs to be looked at

 

what chmod settings need to be set for certain files ?

 

is there anything in the databse that might need looking into ?

 

really got me stumped as ive changed nothing myself

HI,

Do the following checks

1)Is the IPN file at the proper location and has required permission.

2)Any htacess issues that are not allowing post to it.

3)Try to put something into the file whenever an IPN is posted so as to make sure that the IPN is posted and the post is received properly.

4)Check whether the data base connectivity parameters that is in the IPN file are ok.

5)Ask your service provider if there is a fire wall or any issues that might create the problems.

 

Whatever you get please post so that we can come down to the exact cause.
