I have a paypal button that work perfectly in Sanbox. I can pay via paypal and have the information inserted into my database including some custom ariables.
When I switch to live the user can pay and I recieve the payment but it will not update the database. The only thing thats changing is the paypal URL * email to reflect live values.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Are you using IPN to update your database, or are you doing that from your return URL / thank you page, or how exactly are you updating your database? That seems to be the part that isn't working...not the button.

Thank you for the reply angeleye.
The issue was due to me creating another field value within the button creating a duplicate value.
This only appeared as an issue when going live, most likely due to extra security checks or somethig along those lines.
