Bill_P Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 When setting up a PayPal payment gateway, I received the following usage note: "Usage Notes: You should enable IPN in your PayPal account and leave the URL blank" When I try to do that, I get the following PayPal error message: "You must enter a properly formatted URL into the Notification URL field in order to activate Instant Payment Notification." Has anyone else experienced this problem and, if so, what is the solution? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrat Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 No and I don't like the sound of that. I hope PayPal haven't just moved the goalposts in such a way that existing settings are now void. Anyone shed any any light on this? Bill, this is the first time I've ever heard of this problem arising and it's kinda weird. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_P Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 Sorry, it was my stupidity. The URL box wasn't completely empty. Once I deleted http:// from the box I enabled IPN without a problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
