I'm aware that there was a maintenance window earlier, but it's now a couple of hours after that finished and all my IPNs are still failing to validate.

 

Anyone else seeing the same?

ah - ok i noticed they just updated the status to say the maintenance was still ongoing beyond the scheduled time... I assume this is the cause of the IPN failures.

My IPNs have been failing to validate since early this morning. The last IPN to validate properly was at 05:45 GMT. Since then every time I try and post back to paypal I get a 301 Moved Permanently error. Is this due to the scheduled maintenance mentioned above? Any ideas when this might be resolved?

Hi guys,

 

We were experiencing the same problems and replaced

 

$fp = fsockopen ('www.paypal.com', 80, $errno, $errstr, 30);

 

by

 

$fp = fsockopen ('ssl://www.paypal.com', 443, $errno, $errstr, 30);

 

which seems to have done the trick.

While validating IPNs, we are getting a 301 moved permanenty status and following that URL is working fine. Is that something that will persist or is outage related?

human-age, do you have ssl enabled on your server? i tried doing this, but i just get an HTTP error instead, not very helpful. Any ideas?

 

and PayPal, when is this problem expected to be resolved? this is causing me no end of hassle....

so php wasn't compiled with SSL support and because of the cheap hosting i use i can't get that changed.. so the solution above doesnt help me in the least.. I really just hope this isnt a permanent change....
