Re: IPN Not Working

AlertPay_Phoun — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 16:27:46 GMT

In the case of a subscription, you will receive two IPN post for the first payment of a subscription. In the case of a recurring subscription, you will receive one IPN post.

The "ap_status" that you will receive when a user first subscribes will have a value of "Success". Then you will also receive an "ap_status" with value "Subscription-Payment-Success".

Here are few suggestions to avoid getting "Access Denied" in the flow of your IF statement.

You should check for "ap_purchasetype" to be "Subscription", to make sure that the IPN data you are receiving is for a subscription and not for an item for example.

You might want to handle the different "ap_status" that we are sending in case of a subscription
ex: if (($ap_Status eq "Subscription-Payment-Success")

Please refer to page 49 of our integration guide for the other possible statuses.

Since your code only checks for "Success" then it will go to "Access Denied" because the status is actually "Subscription-Payment-Success".

IPN Not Working

rkdallas — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 16:44:46 GMT

Subscription-Payment-Success|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx|HOAP Club Membership|1|20.00|USD|S-49943-0A35F-5AFD9|||
Success|xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx|HOAP Club Membership|1|20.00|USD|S-49943-0A35F-5AFD9|||
|||||||||

When I test a purchase I get access denied in my program, which is what I should get

if the ap_status or the ap_securitycode don't match their $. However, when I print the IPN post
to a file to see what I'm getting, it is returning two posts as you can see above. The xxx's are the security code
and they are the same on both lines.
Am I supposed to be getting both posts?
Could that be a reason my script is not accepting the codes, and denying access?

Here is the section that is checking the variables:

$ap_SecurityCode = $q->param('ap_securitycode');
$ap_Status = $q->param('ap_status');
$ap_ItemName = $q->param('ap_itemname');
$ap_Quantity = $q->param('ap_quantity');
$ap_Amount = $q->param('ap_amount');
$ap_Currency = $q->param('ap_currency');
$ap_SubscriptionReferenceNumber = $q->param('ap_subscriptionreferencenumber');
open (FILE, ">>$datapath/veppy.dat");
flock(FILE, 1);
print FILE "$ap_Status|";
print FILE "$ap_SecurityCode|";
print FILE "$ap_ItemName|";
print FILE "$ap_Quantity|";
print FILE "$ap_Amount|";
print FILE "$ap_Currency|";
print FILE "$ap_SubscriptionReferenceNumber|";
print FILE "$time|";
print FILE "$julian| ";
flock(FILE, 8);
close (FILE);
if (($ap_Status eq "Success")&&($ap_SecurityCode eq "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx")){
$paidmembership = "1";
$user_status = "Paid Membership";
}

elsif (($ap_Status ne "Success")&&($alowfree eq "1")){
$paidmembership = "0";
$amount = 0;
$user_status = "Free Membership";
}

else {
   print $q->header;
   print("<br><br><h2><center>Access Denied</center></h2>");
   exit;

}

Collect variables from Alertpay to cgi

rkdallas — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 16:40:31 GMT

How do you capture the variables passed by Alertpay in a cgi format?

Variables such as ap_status, ap_securitycode, and others.

The cgi script I'm trying to get to work was set up to work with SFIpay IPN.

I am trying to convert it to Alertpay.

The admin, and members part of the script works fine. I can manually add a new member and that new member can sign in and access the member's area.

I can make a test transaction and the payment goes through Alertpay fine but when it returns to my site I get Access Denied. Which is what the script calls for if payment was not recorded by the script.

It is not reading in the ap_status and the ap_securitycode.

The alert return URL is to this script.

How do I write the code to read in the Alertpay variables and then pass them to the script?

My program is a monthly subscription.

Thanks

Are there any PERL sample scripts for AlertPay Integration?

Re: Empty POST data from AlertPay

Any examples for decoding in a PERL script?

Here is what I'm trying to get to work

rkdallas — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 00:44:41 GMT

This is a Perl Script for a subscription.

The script works as far as admin and members areas but I cannot get it to work with the IPN.

It is not reading the ap_securitycode and giving me access denied

This is how the ap_securitycode variable is declared in the config script

$alertpaysecretword = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"; (my actual code is where the xxxs are)

This is where it is checking for the ap_securitycode.

if (($purchase_status eq "SUCCESS")&&($alertpaysecretword eq "$ap_securitycode")){
$paidmembership = "1";
$user_status = "Paid Membership";
}

elsif (($purchase_status ne "SUCCESS")&&($alowfree eq "1")){
$paidmembership = "0";
$amount = 0;
$user_status = "Free Membership";
}

else {
print $q->header;
print("<br><br><h2><center>Access Denied</center></h2>");
exit;
}

Re: sfipay script to alertpay script

rkdallas — Sat, 03 Jan 2009 15:10:14 GMT

I ran the script through a cgi script checker and cgi monitor and it checks out fine.

It just seems to me, (Not A Programmer), that the cgi can't read the ap_securitycode.

I read in another post that the ap_securitycode was going to be sent encrypted, and that your program would have to decrypt it.

Is it possible that is the problem?

If so, do you know a perl script for decrypting.

sfipay script to alertpay script

rkdallas — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 20:32:11 GMT

I have a PERL script that is written to work with sfipay and would like to get it to work with alertpay.

I have the script working as far as admin and member sections but getting it to work with alertpay ipn is not going so well.

When I run a purchase in test mode the script is not accepting what alertpay is sending.

I have it looking for ap_SecurityCode and have my code set in the config file.

If the script does not get what it's looking for it simply displays Access Denied. Which is what I'm getting everytime.

Is the ap_SecurityCode sent in test mode or only in live mode?

DUH???? BEGINNER HERE! lol What do I do FIRST???

LeslieBlue — Sun, 18 May 2008 22:25:45 GMT

I am turning my formerly free website into a subscription pay site, by charging a semi-yearly fee to be a member. Altho I am fairly adept at HTML code, I am really pretty plain ignorant when it comes to PHP Programming, so this is almost like a stab in the dark to me at this point.

I am trying to set up my Advanced IPN with Alert Pay, and I do not even know how to choose which URL of my website to designate as the: ALERT URL. Also, what is my Security Code and who chooses that and if I do, how do I choose that?

I also need information on how to incorporate User ID's and Passwords for my paying customers, so that they can access a MEMBER'S ONLY area after they have paid for their subscription...

Is there anyone out there who can speak to me, a real novice, about this and not have it all go flying right over my head? I would appreciate anyone who has a little patience! lol I am not dumb, just ignorant about where to start right now.

Thanks so much!

Problems with IPN Post Return

listenapc — Tue, 06 May 2008 22:13:00 GMT

Hi, I need help with the integration of you payments notification with our site. I'll paste some code and images to try and illustrate my problem.

First of all i have this page to test the transaction a customer could do from our site. alertpay.asp

<%@LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<title>AlertPay Payment</title>
</head>

<body>
    <form method="post" action="https://www.alertpay.com/PayProcess.aspx" >
        <input type="hidden" name="ap_purchasetype" value="service"/>
        <input type="hidden" name="ap_merchant" value="eve@lazerwager.com"/>
        <input type="hidden" name="ap_itemname" value="LazerWager Deposit"/>
        <input type="hidden" name="ap_currency" value="USD"/>
        <input type="hidden" name="ap_returnurl" value="http://www.lazerwager.com/"/>
        <input type="hidden" name="ap_quantity" value="1"/>
        <input type="hidden" name="ap_cancelurl" value="http://www.lazerwager.com/cancel.asp"/>
        <input type="text" name="ap_amount" value=""/>
        <input type="image" name="ap_image" src="https://www.alertpay.com/Images/BuyNow/big_pay_01.gif"/>
        <input type="hidden" name="apc_1" value="lzw1042" />
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Next you can see my IPN setup at the moment

and alert_return.asp code next

<%@LANGUAGE="javascript" CODEPAGE="1252"%>

<%
var merchant, itemname, currency, totalAmount, referencenumber, status, securitycode;

function initVars(){
    merchant = Request.Form("ap_merchant");
    itemname = Request.Form("ap_itemname");
    currency = Request.Form("ap_currency");
    amount = Request.Form("ap_amount");
    account = Request.Form("apc_1");
    totalAmount = Request.Form("ap_totalamount");
    referencenumber = Request.Form("ap_referencenumber");
    status = Request.Form("ap_status");
    securitycode = Request.Form("ap_securitycode");
}

initVars();

var pdescription = "Test by Carlos";
var preference = "";
var pamount = "";
var ptransid = "";
amount = 15;

    InsertAlertPayDeposit('lzw1042', amount, pdescription, "TransId:");
%>

    <td><%= referencenumber %></td>
    <td><%= status %></td>
    <td><%= securitycode %></td>
</tr>
</table>

</body>
</html>

in alertpay.asp i put http://www.lazerwager.com/ as the returnurl
<input type="hidden" name="ap_returnurl" value="http://www.lazerwager.com/"/>

even if I change it to <input type="hidden" name="ap_returnurl" value="http://www.lazerwager.com/alert_return.asp"/> won't help at all, because on your code you make a javascript redirect

function updateSeconds() {
	var ctlSecondsRemaining = document.getElementById("secondsRemaining");
		
	second--;
		
	ctlSecondsRemaining.innerHTML = second;

	if (second>0)
		queueNextUpdate();
	else
		window.location = 'http://www.lazerwager.com/';

}

Please let me know how to get the info in order to validate the transactions.
