I would have to imagine receiving a 500 when debug is true is very significant, and would explain why the permissions stuff didn't pop up in the code.
As to what's causing it, I'm really not sure. You're probably getting a blank screen because there's no POST data when you visit the site in the browser. If you're so inclined, I would maybe figure out what the URL is expecting and use curl to send a request in. When I reached these kinds of errors, I honestly just started putting debug output in the code to try and narrow it down, On Fri, Aug 13, 2010 at 5:23 AM, Alex Liu <[email protected]> wrote: > In my site settings the POST URL (https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi- > bin/webscr <https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-%0Abin/webscr>) and RETURN > URL (satchmo_checkout-success) in the paypal > payment module are default. > > Did you mean the right URL as in "http://www.robertmillerassoc.com/ > checkout/paypal/ipn/<http://www.robertmillerassoc.com/%0Acheckout/paypal/ipn/> > "? > > I put that in the IPN handler URL for the IPN Simulator in Paypal > Sandbox and picked "Cart Checkout" > > Left everything as it was and clicked "Send IPN" > > I still get the "IPN delivery failed.
