VirtueMart Forum

Hi,
i'm using joomla 3.6.2 and virtuemart 3.0.14. I'm trying to configure a simply paypal sandbox for testing my payment on a site.
I've configured virtuemart payment method with paypal, also setting sandbox mode and insert my sandbox vendor business test mail.

I've completed with success a transaction on a site but there are 2 problem:
- Order in virtuemart it is always in "pendent" status
- Transaction in front end complete successfully with paypal sandbox and it return on my site, but i receive an error mail of transaction with these information:

  What's wrong?
  Can anyone help me to configure this payment method?
  
  Thanks
  

Email error? A search would show this:  http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=133760.0

You must use at least VirtueMart 3.0.16 with Joomla 3.5.1 and later. Current release is 3.0.18    http://dev.virtuemart.net/projects/virtuemart/files

Thanks for reply.
Yes, it's true my fault.

When i complete a transaction, an email will arrive to me (admin) with error information of transaction and direction to virtuemart paypal log file.
In a log file there are these information about transaction with error about Invalid IPN validation.

So ... is there only fault of my version of joomla and virtuemart?
I configured vendor paypal account with these information:
http://www.virtuemartrewardspoints.com/documentation/54-virtuemart-paypal-ipn-order-confirmation

but nothing. Now i will try to reinstall joomla 3.6.2 and virtuemart 3.0.18.

At now thanks, i will inform if i will solve

personally I would first eliminate any unknowns by using a real paypal account and just do a 1 cent transaction ... 
have found Sandbox to act oddly sometimes

Thanks for reply me.
I've try with joomla version 3.6.2 and virtuemart 3.0.18 downloaded from a previously link (all in one version joomla + virtuemart).
Nothing :(

Mail error
Hello,

An error with your payment method paypal on your store Test. The details are logged in the file paypal.1.log.php

. The VirtueMart Team

In paypal.1.log.php there are these information :
2016-10-17 17:55:46 ERROR validateIpnContent: Invalid IPN validation: NO ANSWER FROM PAYPAL

same of previously test with old version.

Can anyone help me?
Thanks

P.s: @GJC Web Design : i would take these test but i've not a paypal business account for test it :( . Do you have another helps?

I don't have further suggestions

the ip it is sending the IPN reply to is Paypal

NetRange:       173.0.80.0 - 173.0.95.255
CIDR:           173.0.80.0/20
NetName:        PAYPAL-SITE

but why Paypal doesn't respond I don't know.. local blocking at your end?

No :(
log are referred from 2 different net (telecom italia and Fastweb in two different place pescara and pesaro).
Maybe can it depends from hosting isp at now i'm testing on?
It's a free webspace hosting: altervista

If I remember correctly, IPN doesn't work with the sandbox. If you want to test IPN, you probably have to read and then configure the IPN simulator:
https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/ipn/integration-guide/IPNSimulator/
However, you can probably avoid that work with doing a real 1 cent transaction, as GJC suggested above.

Ok,
i've transform my account paypal (no sandbox) from personal to business. I've changed address on VM configuration and i've set:

IPN urls

Thank you page
http://www. yousite.xyz/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=pluginresponse&task=pluginresponsereceived

Transaction ok but order always in pendings and same log above :(

out of ideas... no one else is complaining of this so it must be specific to your install

try another server etc

I assume u mean 2016-10-16 16:57:35 ERROR validateIpnContent: Invalid IPN validation: NO ANSWER FROM PAYPAL

this means the IPN was received, your site sent a response back to Paypal .. it never replied

found this

http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=133964.msg465019#msg465019

Yes, i saw last link forum post.

Yes, last chance , i'm trying changing server ... now i will test this on production server of my site.

Yes, IPN was received correctly and i can see it on paypal account... but very strange thing. I hope it was a server.

I will inform if i will resolve. Meantime i wrote an email both paypal and altervista to ask what it the problem.

Thanks

Guys ... As you can see in the post title, i confirm that all depends from free space test used yesterday (altervista).

In register i can complete successfully a simply transaction without error with Paypal Production and Paypal sandbox.

Thanks to all ... very happy to resolve this problem.

just goes to confirm nothing in life is free... this 'free' space has cost you a day of frustration

Really true [emoji17] All experience for next time, thanks [emoji1]
