IPN not being recorded by Simple Commerce Module

When testing the Simple Commerce module sometimes the IPN gets sent by PayPal but the Simple Commerce module does not record it.

Troubleshooting IPN

Confirm these settings:

  • Both buyer and seller are verified.
  • Buyer is logged in to ExpressionEngine when purchasing.
  • The email address in the Simple Commerce module matches that entered into PayPal. This is case sensitive.
