<description>&#60;p&#62;Nope...cause I figure it out!!! :} ...(playful banter of course). Yunair please tell these folks to check the base URL in the their Settings &#38;gt; Misc. Settings &#38;gt; Advance Options and make sure the base url matches that of their machform installation on their site. I wasn't getting updated cause I moved my machform installation to another folder in my server and of coarse the base url in the db never got updated for some reason (not sure if it was supposed to do this automatically or not)...but once I changed that setting everything worked.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;When looking at the ipn history in the the seller test account sandbox it showed my old url path as ....&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;&#60;code&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://myawesomesite.com/service/machform/paypal_ipn.php&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://myawesomesite.com/service/machform/paypal_ipn.php&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/code&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;When it should have been..&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;&#60;code&#62;&#60;a href=&#34;http://myawesomesite.com/somefolder/machform/paypal_ipn.php&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;http://myawesomesite.com/somefolder/machform/paypal_ipn.php&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/code&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;I was getting a http 404 error because obviously the files were not longer in the /service/ folder at all. THANK ALL. And as always Machform is AWESOME....keep up the good work Yuniar. And be patient with us devs you know how we get when stuff don't work(cause we messed it up unknowingly.). :}&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;**also like Yunair says you don't have to set the ipn url in the paypayl account it is done all in the background ..cheers mates!

<description>&#60;p&#62;I'm having this same issue my test transactions are not updating the status of the payment in machform...do I have to put a ipn listener url back in paypal??? how does machform know to look this up? I asked cause when I worked with my own sites I used the IPN API with paypal and you had to provide them with a url of where this stuff was being processed or am I missing something please help as I have paid the upgrade for the sole purpose of using paypal option as it is advertised &#34;easy-to-use&#34;. We are doing a fund-raiser for christmas really need our admins to easily see when payment goes through. thanks.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Try to reupload the content of your &#34;machform/lib/ipnlistener&#34; from the original machform package.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;The most important thing is the &#34;machform/lib/ipnlistener/cert/api_cert_chain.crt&#34; file.&#60;br /&#62;
This file must be exist.

<description>&#60;p&#62;There is the same log that I have a month ago.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;&#60;code&#62;[28-Nov-2013 15:22:16] cURL error: [60] Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates&#60;/code&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;And I checked in the Apache log file, PayPal had requested with HTTP status 200.&#60;br /&#62;
Some status can be updated, maybe there is a encodage problem ????

<description>&#60;p&#62;Did you get any error messages within the ipn_error_log.php after resending the IPN?&#60;br /&#62;
If you didn't get any message, most likely PayPal wasn't able to connect to your IPN URL.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Try to check into your PayPal account and see your IPN history. Follow this step:&#60;br /&#62;
&#60;a href=&#34;https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/ipn/integration-guide/IPNOperations/&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/ipn/integration-guide/IPNOperations/&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;You can find out the status of the IPN there that should help investigate the issue.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Hi,&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;After 3 weeks in production with MachForm and put online the first event registration form for our organisation. I can tell that ONLY 1 registration was abled to update the status from PayPal via paypal_ipn.php. And it was a surprise, because the participant was sumitted his PayPal payment form less than 1 minute between the registration form submission and the PayPal one. So I think there is something like a timeout. Maybe MachForm isn't activated correctly ?&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Right now, I must check the status in PayPal interface and update it myself 1-by-1.
&#60;/p&#62;</description>

<description>&#60;p&#62;Thanks for your reply.&#60;br /&#62;
But we have our server with internal management only. We don't use &#60;a href=&#34;http://FTP.&#34; rel=&#34;nofollow&#34;&#62;FTP.&#60;/a&#62;&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;So, I'm supprise that the debug mode doesn't print more information about the status request with paypal_ipn.php.&#60;br /&#62;
All the way, we must put our forms online today. We don't debug it now. But probably later when this forms will be closed.
&#60;/p&#62;</description>

<description>&#60;p&#62;I constate that the log file is already existed, old log lines were inside.&#60;br /&#62;
&#60;code&#62;&#60;br /&#62;
[23-Oct-2013 12:14:44] cURL error: [60] Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates&#60;br /&#62;

<description>&#60;p&#62;To investigate this further, you'll need to edit your &#34;paypal_ipn.php&#34; file. Search around line 30 for this code:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;pre&#62;&#60;code&#62;$use_debug_mode = false;&#60;/code&#62;&#60;/pre&#62;
&#60;p&#62;change it to become:&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;pre&#62;&#60;code&#62;$use_debug_mode = true;&#60;/code&#62;&#60;/pre&#62;
&#60;p&#62;Then try testing your form again. The error log should be saved into &#34;ipn_error_log.php&#34;, located under your &#34;machform/data&#34; folder.&#60;br /&#62;
You can open that file to see the detailed error message.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Ok, it's working with URL configured with HTTPS. Thanks.&#60;/p&#62;
&#60;p&#62;In another way, the status update is a little bit random successful. Maybe there is a timeout ? I checked log that PayPal has send back the status with (&#34;POST /paypal_ipn.php HTTP/1.0&#34; 200 - ). But the status cannot be updated for some payment. When I fill form quickly, it was ok. I tried to waiting 3 minutes to valid my payment on PayPal form, payment status isn't updated in MachForm, but PayPal has send status back.

<description>&#60;p&#62;Ah,,yes, if you blocked HTTP, make sure to go to your Settings and set the &#34;MachForm URL&#34; to use HTTPS path.&#60;br /&#62;
So that PayPal would connect to your server using HTTPS as well.
&#60;/p&#62;</description>

<description>&#60;p&#62;Ok, I confirme that the PayPal IPN payment status use HTTP and not HTTPS. I have 403 and 301 error in Apache log file without SSL. So, the payment status back is wihout SSL.
