    Hi,

    The Paypal transactions are showing up in amember, but they have to be manually checked off to becomign completed and active.

    The IPN return URL for the account is being used for another script. The address is the primary Paypal email and it is a business account.

    I'm wondering if I have missed something in configuring stuff?

    Thanks,
    Stephanie

    Do you see paypal IPN messages in Error log ?
    If so do you see any errors related to paypal in Error/Debug log?

    I am having the same issue. I just signed up for enhanced recurring payments and everything seems to work great but the user is not activated and has to be manually completed. Any ideas? There is nothing in the error log.

    You mean the error/debug log correct? If so the most recent error I have is from 3 weeks ago. I just tested the paypal subscription yesterday.

    I mean, open url of IPN script in your browser. It should generate error. Copy that error and include it in your reply.

    The error message is as follows:

    paypal_r ERROR: IPN validation error: Paypal claims it is not-valid IPN transaction: [INVALID]<br />

    Sorry for the confusion.

    if that payment was completed in paypal, complete it manually in aMember CP -> Edit payment -> Completed -> yes
    Also check aMember Error/Debug log, do you see any errors related to paypal?

    Paypal payment approve issue

    Thanks for your reply.

    I would like to set the payment approve automatically. when the user paid the payment in the paypal.

    Parallely I am creating the username and pwd for that user. I need to send email for that subscribed user.

    But Email is not sending to that user.

    Awaiting for your earliest reply.

    Thanks

    Already fixed it. We forgot to remove some restrictions from .htaccess :)
