Paypal IPN issue with Znote

[Vapous]

Hi guys, I am using nostalrius 7.72

everything is working smoothly now apart from the shop system. When my friend buys points on papyal he doesn't receive the points until i manually accept funds.

I changed the IPN setting on paypal to this

http://86.131.130.130/ipn.php

In the Config for znote its left as

        'success' => "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/success.php",
        'failed' => "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/failed.php",
        'ipn' => "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/ipn.php",

probably something simple?

thanks guys

first, are you using sandbox?
check your webservice (apache/nginx) log to see whats happenning and if paypal is sending post message

I have no idea if I'm using sandbox. I use uniformserver i checked the logs, no errors with paypal that i can see...

i'm not talking about errors, have you saw if paypal is trying to communicate with you server on /ipn.php?
sandbox is a development enviroment, check your config.php if it is enabled

Thanks for the reply mate,

I checked its not in sandbox mode. Also no I cannot see that PayPal is communicating with it at all.

        'success' => "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/success.php",
        'failed' => "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/failed.php",
        'ipn' => "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/ipn.php",

Change to

'success' => "http://86.131.130.130/success.php",
'failed' => "http://86.131.130.130/failed.php",
'ipn' => "http://86.131.130.130/ipn.php"

Also, it's better create a DNS for it

Hey man,

I actually tried it this way too and it didn't work either.

I also have a dns and tried it both ways.

if you don't see paypal communication on your webservice log, the problem is outside php script, so, maybe your firewall (netfilter / iptables / DC panel FW) is blocking their connection, or maybe your IPN is not set correctly at paypal panel (most common)

yeah I feel like im putting the wrong thing in the ipn settings on PayPal. But not sure what it’s meant to be

There's a table called znote_paypalin your SQL database, check it for logs/errors

This is in my Znote_paypal

As you can see where my friend made payments, i accepted them manually tho. Not sure what the other connections are from?

UPDATE. Issue fixed.

I had my config set up to recieve EUR but it needed to be GBP because that is my PayPal currency. PayPal wouldn't automatically accept funds in another currency.

Cheers for trying though guys.

It's most likely a Cloudflare (or similar service) messing with the IP's of the requests received.

You will have to set your web service so it assumes the address not based on the request IP, but the request content, that is being added by the proxy service (Cloudflare or such).

Paypal IPN - Resonse Validation

Hello there! I have migrated my server to cloudflare. I’m using paypal ipn for my shop. It’s running on my own cms which works basically fine. Now the problem starts as paypal works as reverse proxy server. Usually a response from paypal can be identified via host e.g “paypal.com” so you know...

community.cloudflare.com

@edit
Damn, I missed your edit.
Glad it worked for you!

thought that but he was using numeric IP without cloudflare DNS
@Vapous you read wrong log, you said that Paypal wasn't communicating to your webserver xD
happy thats fixed, cya
