[SOLVED] - VM3 paypal sandbox configuration

[15pablo8400]

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:

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

[15pablo8400]

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

[15pablo8400]

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?

[GJC Web Design]

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?

[15pablo8400]

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.

[15pablo8400]

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
http://www.yousite.xyz/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=pluginresponse&task=pluginnotification&tmpl=component

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

[GJC Web Design]

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

[GJC Web Design]

found this

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

[15pablo8400]

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

[15pablo8400]

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.

[GJC Web Design]

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]
