Paypal problem, please help.

[irish80ca]

I'm getting ready to go live with my site. I will be selling downloadable files. I've managed to link everything together to I get a download option AFTER payment is made BUT only through the Credit Card payment option.

 

I currently ONLY want Paypal as a form of payment but after I make a payment I'm brought back to the log in page of my website.

 

I'm give no option to download anything and the is NO record on either end (Website or Admin.) that any purchase ever took place.

 

How do I correct this?

I'd like to jump in on this question too. I'm having the same issue.

If you are using the default Pay Pal module then you need to sign up (in your Pay Pal account) for the Auto-Return feature - and set the correct Return URL - which is http or https://www.yourdomain.com/checkout_process.php (this last for a full ssl only - adapt for a shared ssl)

 

Unless you use Auto-Return then you are totally reliant on customers hitting the 'Continue' button at the end of the Pay Pal process - and if they don't then they don't come back to your site, no orders get entered into the database, and no order e-mails get fired off - and the shopping cart does not get emptied.

 

You'd get the same sort of problem if you specify the wrong Return URL.

I assume I'm on a Share SSL. How do I find out? What do you mean by adapt it?
