Hi, the PayPay IPN responses I get with sandbox account are empty. I've tried two functions to do this and any works today. Yesterday the function wich uses fputs it worked, the curl function only I've tested today and not.
I think I haven't made any changes to fputs function since yesterday.
The language code I use is PHP.
fputs function:
<?php
function paypal_ipn_validate() {
$req = 'cmd=_notify-validate';
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
$req .= "&$key=" . urlencode(stripslashes($value));
}
// Post back to PayPal to validate
$paypal_url = 'www.sandbox.paypal.com';
$header = "POST /cgi-bin/webscr HTTP/1.0\r\n";
$header .= "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n";
$header .= "Content-Length: " . strlen($req) . "\r\n\r\n";
$fp = fsockopen ('ssl://' . $paypal_url, 443, $errno, $errstr, 30);
if (!$fp) {
return FALSE;
}
$validated = FALSE;
$full_res = '';
fputs($fp, $header . $req);
while (!feof($fp)) {
$enter = TRUE;
$res = fgets ($fp, 1024);
if (strcmp ($res, "VERIFIED") == 0) {
$validated = TRUE;
}
else if (strcmp ($res, "INVALID") == 0) {
// log
}
else {
$full_res .= $res;
}
}
fclose ($fp);
return $validated;
}
?> curl function:
<?php
function paypal_ipn_validate() {
// read the post from PayPal system and add 'cmd'
$req = 'cmd=' . urlencode('_notify-validate');
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
$value = urlencode(stripslashes($value));
$req .= "&$key=$value";
}
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $req);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 2);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Host: www.sandbox.paypal.com'));
$res = curl_exec($ch);
$status = curl_getinfo($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$validated = FALSE;
if (strcmp ($res, "VERIFIED") == 0) {
$validated = TRUE;
}
else if (strcmp ($res, "INVALID") == 0) {
// log
}
return $validated;
}
?> $full_res variable in fputs function:

P.S. I from Spain and my English is not so good.
