PayPal Instant Payment Notification Warning

[linortek]

I constantly receive a message from Paypal like this "Please check your server that handles PayPal Instant Payment Notifications (IPN). IPNs sent to the following URL(s) are failing". I login in to my Paypal again and do everything as Easycart instruction suggested. But this message from Paypal keep coming. What did I do wrong? I found a topic on Paypal help center about IPN at this link: https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/classic/products/instant-payment-notification/. It seems that I need to create a basic IPN listener script and install on my website? I did not see any instruction on Easycart documentation that I need to create a basic IPN listener scipt. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

We already have the IPN script and listener url setup for you, just go to the easycart admin -> payment information panel where you setup paypal to begin with, and read the instructions. There is a url there specific to your site, just copy and paste that url into paypal's IPN listener setup on their website and it will talk to it.

Thank You, I was having the same issue :-)

On the subject above, I've recently gotten the following email from PayPal about a change they're making. Has this already been taken care of, and we need to do nothing more? Should I even be using this thread to ask this question, or should I start a new one?

====================
Yikes, image came in tiny. Here's a copy & paste of the wording instead. See below.
====================

As we have previously communicated to you, PayPal is upgrading the certificate for www.paypal.com to SHA-256. This endpoint is also used by merchants using the Instant Payment Notification (IPN) product.

This upgrade is scheduled for 9/30/2015; however, we may need to change this date on short notice to you to align to the industry security standard.

You???re receiving this notification because you???ve been identified as a merchant who has used IPN endpoints within the past year. If you have not made the necessary changes, we urge you to do so right away to avoid a disruption of your service!

Jjones,
I did read the instruction, copy & paste the URL in my EasyCart (Admin - Store Setup - Payment Setup - Third Party - Paypal Standard) to my Paypal IPN block. I have been constantly receive this email as attached. How to fix this?

Thank you!

AUG 2015: Did nobody reply to this. A customer after many trouble free months suddenly starts to get the exact same email as 'lintortek' (photo 1). No problem with payments though. Why?
the URL http://[domain].nz/wp-content/plugins/wp-easycart/inc/scripts/paypal_payment_complete.php exisits and is inserted into PayPal so they shouldn't be receiving any email as above.

I this kind of situations I always call the support.

I just started having this same problem. I've checked all the settings at PayPal and they are good. Everything seems fine on my website. Could this be a file permission problem on my server?

I receive too many emails from Paypal sometimes and it irritates me.
