Chapter 6 Ipn


Recommended Posts

Hi Larry and all, it's me again. I have a problem getting the IPN script to work properly. The IPN request is sent successfully, but the ipn.php script doesn't seem to be updating the database. I've checked my code against the one provided on this site, but I don't seem to be finding anything wrong with mine. Wrote in the function that logs IPN requests, and interestingly it reports back a HTTP 400 error code. Is there something I've missed or done wrong? Or could it be an issue with my host? Thanks for any help offered!

 

<?php # Script 1.22 - ipn.php

 

// Include the configuration file:

fwrite($file, "Received:\n");

fwrite($file, print_r($_POST, true));

fwrite($file, "\n");

 

// Create a request variable:

$req = 'cmd=_notify-validate';

 

// Add each received key=value pair to the request:

$value = urlencode(stripslashes($value));

$req .= "&$key=$value";

}

 

// Open a socket connection to PayPal:

trigger_error('Could not connect to the IPN!');

 

// If a connection was made, send the request to PayPal:

Well, I seem to be getting closer to solving this conundrum. Apparently, PayPal are planning to drop support for HTTP 1.0 for IPN, starting February 2013. Yet they've configured the sandbox to turn off support early. I've fixed up the code a bit so that it validates www.sandbox.paypal.com as the host:

 

$header = "POST /cgi-bin/webscr HTTP/1.1\r\n";

$header .= "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n";

$header .= "Content-Length: " . strlen($req) . "\r\n\r\n";

$header .= "Host: www.sandbox.paypal.com\r\n";

fputs($fp, $header . $req);

 

Part of the IPN process seemingly goes through, but then it hits another 400 error midway. Then the request fails to go through. Here's my latest error log that ipn.txt has produced:

Hi Sean and Larry,

 

PayPal has made some changes to the Sandbox in the last week. I ran into the same issue yesterday when code that worked previously, suddenly broke. PayPal is apparently preparing to move to PHP5.2 with cURL and have updated their sample code (https://www.x.com/developers/PayPal/documentation-tools/code-sample/216623). These changes don't have impacted the "real" PayPal yet. You can find comments about this unexpected change on several sites (e.g., http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11810344/paypal-ipn-bad-request-400-error)

 

I got everything working again by adding $header .= "Host: www.sandbox.paypal.com\r\n" but it has to come AFTER the POST:

 

$header = "POST /cgi-bin/webscr HTTP/1.0\r\n";
$header .= "Host: www.sandbox.paypal.com\r\n";
$header .= "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n";
$header .= "Content-Length: " . strlen($req) . "\r\n\r\n";
fputs ($fp, $header . $req);

 

It is also important not to change to HTTP/1.1, otherwise you get those empty or 0 responses. By retaining HTTP/1.0, you will get "Received:

VERIFIED" at the end of the response again so it can be nicely used as a trigger.

 

Larry, you may have to update your book and the downloadable code with this change. But with that new desk of yours, that shouldn't be a problem ;-)

 

Greetings from Ireland!

 

 

Michael

Hi:
I got the same error, but the solution that worked for you is not working anymore because Paypal has phased out HTTP/1.0 . So I am getting no response with the solution you have provided. Paypal now a completely different script which is very different from the one used in your example. I have tried everything but its not working. Could someone please update the ipn script (the ipn_log.php file) in the example so that the example is still usable.
 
Thanks
Thomas
