madcrazygirl Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Well documented problem so you will find lots of info on this. You probably need to install the paypal ipn module to solve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I had this problem today. I discovered that customers have to click "return to merchant" when they complete payment or the order doesn't get confirmed. I'm looking for a way to fix this, or I'll add info that they need to click "return to merchant" or their order won't be processed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 In modules/payment/paypal.php find line 71-73 Change to: function confirmation() { return array('title' => MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_TEXT_DESCRIPTION1); } Then in includes/languages/english/modules/payment/paypal.php add define('MODULE_PAYMENT_PAYPAL_TEXT_DESCRIPTION1', 'Thank you for shopping with ourselves, you have selected to pay for your order by <b>PayPAL</b>.<br>To complete your order, please click on the <b>Confirm Order</b> button below. You will be redirect to PayPAL\'s Secure Payment portal.<font color=red> It is <b>VERY IMPORTANT</b>, once payment has been sent to PayPAL that you click the PayPAL \'Return to Merchant button\' to complete this order.</font> Thank you.'); This will produce a reminder text at the bottom of the checkout process that the customer must click the return to merchant button on paypal. Also, log into your paypal account and click on profile then set the return URL address to http://www.mysite.com/catalog/checkout_process.php That should help reduce the failed checkouts and returns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starman2049 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Same deal with me. I just got my site up 10 days ago and finally got PayPal working last Friday. Today I am trying transactions and notice the PayPal side has changed their user interface and now when I click "Return to Merchant" it returns me to the osCommerce login and although payment has been made oscommerce doesn't see that.

starman2049 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Ok, looks like I needed to turn on "Payment Data Transfer" in the PayPal website Payment preferences profile. don't know why this worked last week and not this week but with this turned on it works - for now...
