eStore IPN validation failed – No sales, No post payment process

[Hiroko Liston]

My website was working perfectly, then yesterday it stopped working.

I made test purchases. “ipn_handle_debug.log” always shows ‘IPN validation failed’ and ‘eStore_post_payment_debug.log’ is blank. So no sales recorded, no email sent to buyer and no notification sent to seller.

I read through this forum and tried all I could on the eStore side and PayPal side, but no success.

My site is ‘http://jagateway.com’

If you can help, I would be hugely grateful. I am so discouraged after many hours of hard work.

Hi, there is nothing to be discouraged about Something has gone wrong somewhere and we should be able to give you a hand to figure it out. This issue could be related to the PayPal changed mentioned in the following announcement:

You didn’t mention what version of the eStore plugin you are using.

A big hug and a kiss to you from Australia. Thank you for your help.

I was not aware of the PayPal change.

I have deleted the eStore plugin and installed the upgraded version as instructed in the linked post you gave me.

And now my site is working perfectly. Thank you so much. I am impressed with your support.
