Working on implementation of paypal's recurring payments, I've got encountered some problems. I have followed paypal's documentation from here: PayPal Express Checkout: Recurring Payments Process Flow It seems that everything works properly and I get ProfileID at the end (from result of CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile() query). Recurring profile is also being created. The problem is there's no IPN confirmation after running CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile(), but according to: PayPal Express Checkout: PayPal Notifications - it should be.

Did you set up an IPN URL in the Profile section of your PayPal account?
CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile doesn't accept the NOTIFYURL parameter; rather, you need to set up an IPN URL within the Profile of your PayPal account. This is the IPN URL that will be used for the recurring payment IPN message(s).

Thank you, PayPal_RobG
It works now!
I have set up IPN URL a few days ago but it looks like Paypal hasn't saved it properly... I appreciate your help on this issue.
Thanks, Sergey
