I am trying to set up a notification from on a payment. Here is my code:
def PayPal_IPN():
print("REQUESt: ", request)
print("REQUESt INFO: ",request.data)
'''This module processes PayPal Instant Payment Notification messages (IPNs).'''
# Switch as appropriate
VERIFY_URL = VERIFY_URL_PROD
# Read and parse query string
params = request.form.to_dict()
# Add '_notify-validate' parameter
params['cmd'] = '_notify-valudate'
# Post back to PayPal for validation
headers = {'content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
'user-agent': 'Python-IPN-Verification-Script'}
r = requests.post(VERIFY_URL, params=params, headers=headers, verify=True)
r.raise_for_status()
# Check return message and take action as needed
if r.text == 'VERIFIED':
print("SUCCESSFULL")
elif r.text == 'INVALID':
print("FAILURE")
else:
print("NOTHING HAPPENED?")
return ""
Here is my error message:
requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 404 Client Error: Not Found for url:
https://ipnpb.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr....
Can someone help me figure out what I am not understanding? maybe the link has changed?
