IPN (instant payment notification) errors from Paypal after invoice is paid #39

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.not sure, but I received the Paypal email that money was recieved.
2.I then marked the web-invoice as paid and the thankyou was sent to client.
3.Paypal error and retrying so they turned off IPN. not sure impact on futher 
invoice payments.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Software should mark invoice paid (I think,,, it had stopped doing that).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 2.0.11  Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.
This is the Paypal error:
Please check your server that handles PayPal Instant Payment Notifications 

(IPN). IPNs sent to the following URL(s) are failing:

http://mywebsite name/billing/?paypal_ipn=1&invoice_id=?nnnnnnnn  (real id 
changed)

If you do not recognize this URL, you may be using a service provider that is 
using IPN on your behalf. Please contact your service provider with the above 
information. If this problem continues, IPNs may be disabled for your account.

Can you please try to reproduce the issue on a Linux/Unix system?

Hi, 

I gave you my pc version (windows 7); but the web host is Linux! Any ideas why 
this is happening? Does the software use IPNs???

It does, and it works for me in the sandbox. Can you see whether you can access 
the URL PayPal is complaining about?

Yes when I go to the page for that invoice it says:

"We were not expecting you. REF: MB0"

Looks like everything is working as it should. Now to confirm that PayPal is 
not having issues, can you scroll to the bottom of the 'Manage Invoice' and see 
whether there are any failed IPN transactions?

Also can you check the IPN History page on PayPal. It tells you whether PayPal 
sent the IPN message and whether your listener responded to it. It may also 
provide information about the status of the server on which your listener is 
running. If necessary, from this page you can also request that PayPal resend 
the IPN message.

I'll be making a release in few hours, if you are in a hurry you can checkout 
from SVN.
