In my OJS 3.0.2 installation > journal/management/settings/distribution, I have specified, ‘https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr’ as the IPN URL and my Paypal email in the seller Account.
At Paypal, paypal settings requires a ‘Notification URL’ to be set to enable IPN. Here is a screenshot.
I wonder what URL should I enter here? Do I enter the OJS installation domain name? Please help.
I have the same problem, but in version OJS 2.
I wonder what URL should I enter in Notification URL in PAYPAL settings? Do I enter the OJS installation domain name? Please help. Thanks
Hmm… You must enter a properly formatted URL into the Notification URL field in order to activate Instant Payment Notification.
Maybe: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr ?
Alec, we have the same issue. When we go to check this setting in paypal, it reports that the IPN is disabled. When we check the “enable” box and save, the site complains and wants a URL. So the questions are a) are you really using IPN for event notification or b) are you use using the IPN gateway and reading all status during the transaction?
Lastly, are you using IPN notification to trigger sending emails to pay-per-view customers?
