Paypal Standard IPN Issues

Hello,

I have been cruising along with ease setting up my OpenCart store. Everything was great until testing out our payment gateway.

We are using PayPal Standard...
I've followed all the steps. Enabled IPN, set it to http://mysite.com (placing my real URL in the field), etc, ..
I've disabled any type of .htaccess password.

When I check my IPN history in PayPal it is showing me success for every IPN sent with code 200.
However, I've set my PayPal into debug mode, when I check the error log in OpenCart, it's empty.

There is no callback or listening going on.

I've tried literally every step found here: http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... h=32_35_60

I've tried this in both a sandbox mode and doing actual transactions.

I still get no order email confirmation and it places my orders instantly into missing orders.

Any guidance or things I may have missed would be much appreciated! I've sifted through countless threads and have not found any solution. There's always some little catch I am sure. I'd be willing to barter some free merch if anyone can help me out!

Cheers!

No need to set IPN in Paypal, the callback is sent along with the payment info when the user is redirected to paypal along with the return url etc.

Paypal should be calling back after successful payment.

You dont currently have your store in Maintenance mod by any chance do you ?

If so, this will block the IPN from coming back.

It seems that all of that goes through fine, it just seems nothing is being sent back to OpenCart.

Would this help me?

I have found a hundred references to this same problem, but no confirmed solutions. Does anyone have a solution that will work?
