I'm creating an IPN for a custom digital ecommerce but i have a problem: everything works file,i create a "pending payment" in my database with an ID that i call PID (payment id),the user go to the paypal page and when the payment is completed paypal contact me on the IPN listener that checks if the payment is completed and enable all the media that the user bought.
I successfully created an IPN using the micah carrick php class ( http://www.micahcarrick.com/php-paypal-ipn-integration-class.html ) and everything is working exept i ALWAYS get a pendign payment status and i can't get a confirmed one.
I'm currently testing it in the paypal sandbox,i created 2 buyers and one seller and i have enabled the "payment review" for everybody.
I tryed also different approach but i always get the same result.
Code: file_put_contents('ipn.log',"\n>IPN\n",FILE_APPEND);
//Check the Payment ID,i pass it to the IPN by GET
if(!isset($_GET['pid'])|| !is_numeric($_GET['pid'])){
file_put_contents('ipn.log',"\n!!!IPN:INVALID PID(".$_GET['pid'].")!!!\n",FILE_APPEND);
exit('PID INVALIDO!');
}
//Logging errors
ini_set('log_errors', true);
ini_set('error_log', dirname(__FILE__).'/ipn_errors.log');
// instantiate the IpnListener class
require('ipnlistener.php');
$listener = new IpnListener();
//Use the sandbox instead of going "live"
$listener->use_sandbox = true;
//validate the request
try {
$listener->requirePostMethod();
$verified = $listener->processIpn();
}
catch (Exception $e) {
error_log($e->getMessage());
exit(0);
}
//Just for debug
file_put_contents('ipn.log',"\n###IPN:verifying...###\n",FILE_APPEND);
if($verified){//the payment is verified
file_put_contents('ipn.log',"\n###IPN:transaction verified(confirmed=".$_POST['payment_status'].")###\n".$listener->getTextReport(),FILE_APPEND);
/*
Once you have a verified IPN you need to do a few more checks on the POST
fields--typically against data you stored in your database during when the
end user made a purchase (such as in the "success" page on a web payments
standard button). The fields PayPal recommends checking are:
1. Check the $_POST['payment_status'] is "Completed"
2. Check that $_POST['txn_id'] has not been previously processed
3. Check that $_POST['receiver_email'] is your Primary PayPal email
4. Check that $_POST['payment_amount'] and $_POST['payment_currency']
are correct
Since implementations on this varies, I will leave these checks out of this
example and just send an email using the getTextReport() method to get all
of the details about the IPN.
*/
if($_POST['payment_status']=="Completed"){
//--check if the price is right and enable the user media--
confirm_payment($_GET['pid'],$_POST['payment_amount']);
file_put_contents('ipn.log',"\n###IPN:Transaction completed###\n".$listener->getTextReport(),FILE_APPEND);
}
}
else {
/*
An Invalid IPN *may* be caused by a fraudulent transaction attempt. It's
a good idea to have a developer or sys admin manually investigate any
invalid IPN.
*/
file_put_contents('ipn.log',"\n###IPN:ERROR###\n".$listener->getTextReport(),FILE_APPEND);
}
The debug log i created is always like this
> IPN <--it states that the ipn was correctly called
##IPN:verifying...### <--the IPN is verifying the transaction
##IPN:transaction verified(confirmed=Pending)<--the transaction is verified but it's NOT confirmed because it's pending,i can't enable the download!
