Always the same "pending order" after paypal payment

[carsten888]

@alatak
I think not, as each order is paid for and only one IPN notification is received. Anyway, with the above alteration my shop is working again. But that might not have been the same issue as others on htis thread. Sorry about that. I thought this was the same thing.

Could all this have anything to do with the change in http support? Could it be the IPN bounces at the host as the http is no longer supported by VM, the host returns the IPN back with a different http, as a workaround to get it going, VM sees a different ip and won't accept it. Could this be what is happening? Just a thought.

Hello

Could all this have anything to do with the change in http support?

No , not at all. Some people got the exact problem with the previous version.

Here is a list of trusted PayPal ip addresses. Please correct me if I am wrong:

This is the list of the valid Paypal IP address.
And the one you mentioned is not on that list.

I am sure that in a week or so, This IP will disappear.

Dear all

In relation to my earlier post, connected to this subject, I have received the following from Paypal

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

http://www.cuisenaire.co.uk/index.php/shop/pluginresponse/pluginnotification?tmpl=component
http://cuisenaire.co.uk/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=pluginresponse&task=pluginnotification&tmpl=component
http://cuisenaire.co.uk/index.php/shop/view/pluginresponse/task/pluginnotification/tmpl/component

At this stage, I am pretty sure that maintaining VM up to date should have fixed any problems, but I'm completely at a loss on this.

Thanks in advance.

VM 2.0.22c

As an update

I have solved this problem by recreating the Payment option in the back end of the store.

So far so good.

This issue will not go away in a week or so.

I have a first documented issue in AUG 7 2012.

Error code 506. Possible fraud. Error with REMOTE IP ADDRESS = 173.0.81.1.

This is not caused by something that PayPal will fix, I think it is a routing issue and that the server request for IP address gives a wrong IP adress. None of my payments have been spoofed or otherwise faulty.

My guess is that this is coming from 3G or 4G based home networks. I have had other issues with ISP providers supplying their services on thoose networks.

But I would be more than happy if anyone could come up with a solution for this.

You can use the fix I posted earlyer, just replace the new ip adress with 173.0.81.1. Mine works fine now. I'm pretty sure its some routing issue.

Hi all,

I've just upgraded to VM 2.0.22c and I'm testing with PayPal Sandbox.  When I put through transactions they are remaining as Pending.

I'm not quite sure where to start in figuring out why - can anyone point me in the right direction? What do you need to know?

I really need to have this upgrade sorted by the Oct 7th paypal changes.

Many thanks
Claire

Orders are confirming for me now - for some reason the IPN was queued.
