I offer a file download with checkout via Paypal WPS.

During the last 4 days I it failed two times.

The first time, 4 days ago, the user had paid via Paypal and then did not receive his file. When I checked, then there was not even a user account for him in my system. So I thought that maybe Paypal did not correctly report to Moneyscripts.

However, today I had a case, in which the user paid via Paypal but then received no download link. No email, no file download link under "my files".

When I checked then I found that he had a user. But the user did not have the role "clients" (which it should have had), nor did it have access to the download. I did not find an order in the system. 

Today I had "Main Settings / Log Module Message to Database" turned on. So in theory I might even be able to troubleshoot that case a bit, but I have no clue what to look for.

Any idea what might go wrong here?

Strange, so it is working sometimes and not others? In the Logs, there should be an error or warning if the PayPal IPN failed validation for some reason. Check for all messages with the ms_paypal_wps tag and see if there is anything weird there...

Yes, usually it's working and in 5% of the cases it's failing. In the log I see successful notices only. "Successfully Received an IPN from PayPal."

Is an order generated for the order in MoneyScripts->Orders? Does it show any payments received, or anything else in the History?

Yes it does. Order status: Completed.

It also sends confirmation emails to the client and myself. The client complaints about a non working link. I have not seen the email.

I receive the usual

I had another case yesterday. I don't know what to do about it.

Any ideas?

Michael, Check the

Michael,

Check the Permissions and see if everything looks okay in there.

Also, see if the files are showing in the user's My Files tab in their user account.

Sincerely,

Permissions are fine. The

Permissions are fine. The file in questions has been purchased and downloaded without issues more than 700 times now.

The file does NOT show up in the users "My Files"  tab. And as far as I understood them these users do NOT receive an email with download link.
