Title: Problems with PayPal IPN
Post by: patbe60 on December 09, 2017, 11:20:33 AM
Hello

Yesterday I got a message from Paypal:


Please check your server that handles PayPal Instant Payment Notifications (IPN). IPNs sent to the following URL(s) are failing:

http://www.xxxx.ch/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=vmplg&task=notify&tmpl=component&lang=de

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.


I don't exactly know what it means. I have tested PayPal and everything seams to work correctly. Maybe someone can tell me what I have to change.

Thank you for every hint.

Regards
Patrik

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, my order status is updating, no problem. And I also always update my AIO.

A day before this email a customer ordered an item in my shop and during a day I got every hour one or two confirmation emails of this order. I checked it with the customer. For him every thing worked fine.

You have to try yourself using the same (full) URL send by paypal to see the result.
