Swipestripe Paypal Module not working for me - paypal

I am using Swipestripe to build an ecommerce website. I have implemented the frank-mullenger/payment-paypal module for the checkout process. However i am having trouble with this; it is all installed correctly as per the instructions however when i click "Proceed to Pay" it is not redirecting to Paypal to get payment. The payment is failing and sending me to the AccountOrder page
Does anyone know what could cause this or a fix?

Paypal Express Checkout NVP unable to processes order with this account

I am trying to implement Paypal Express checkout with my site.
I am able to generate the token using the "SetExpressCheckout" API call, and the user is redirected to the Paypal login page.
However, once the user logs in, they get the following error:
We're not able to process your payment using your PayPal account at this time. Please try again later.
This only happens on the live production. When using the sandbox everything seems to work.
I would really appreciate any suggestions as to what may be causing this and how to fix it, TIA!

PayPal PDT like functionaility for Stripe

I am planning to use Stripe to accept payments for digital products and want to redirect the (legit) user to a download/thank you page after payment. Until now, I have been using PayPal and its PDT service helped me do just that. Infact, I could do a callback to PayPal from the download page, to confirm that the transaction info was correct, that the order was actually placed and then process the same (did so using the following tutorial:- http://www.paysketch.com/setup-paypal-pdt/)
I have been looking around a lot, but have been unable to find PDT like functionality in Stripe. What way can I implement the same? Following are the primary motives:-
User should be redirected to a thank you/download page after payment
My script should be able to verify the same from stripe
Please suggest.

Paypal Express Checkout for Digital Goods hangs when login is popup

I have been testing Paypal integration - on Sandbox - for a number of days and have found that, when the Paypal login is presented in a browser, everything is fine; However when the login environment changes to a popup/lightbox, the browser hangs and remains on 'loading' after a successful test payment has gone through.
I used PayPal integration wizard to generate the code and then amended it accordingly. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as it's doing my head in!
I have seen this issue occur several times lately, as well as reported by a few of my customers. While I can't provide a definitive solution, I have had success with one or more of the following:
Clear the browser cacher. Shutdown and restart the browser.
Login to standard PayPal site, logout and restart browser.
Try a different browser to help identify whether there is something going on with that specific browser.
Switch between sandbox, live, and back to sandbox mode. This may require a repeat of step #1.
Contact Paypal customer support.
I typically resolve the problem before getting to #4, hopefully you will as well. Best of luck!

Magento 1.7.0.2 and Paypal Advanced not working

I've been trying to activate Paypal Payments Advanced in Magento 1.7.0.2 but it's simply not working. I believe the whole setup is correct, in the shopping cart and in the Paypal account, I have verified against the Paypal documentation as well as researched on the web.
I can go through the whole checkout and select credit card in the payment options, which displays the message "You will be required to enter your payment details after you place an order.", then when I click the Place Order button, it goes to the Shopping cart page without asking for the payment, and the cart is empty. The order then shows in the admin with the status pending payment.
I noticed on the console that before the redirect to the cart page, there is a 500 error with this url .../checkout/onepage/saveOrder/
I also seem 500 erros when calling other pages related to the Paypal Advanced like: .../index.php/paypal/payflowadvanced/cancelPayment or .../index.php/paypal/payflowadvanced/returnUrl
Any help would be appreciated, I already confirmed Curl is installed and working, SSL certificate is installed and working, the settings in the Paypal account like Enable Secure Token is Yes, all services under Service Summary say Live, so I have a feeling something is broken in Magento.
Have you seem this issue? Or were you able to install Paypal Advanced in any Magento 1.7.0.2?
Did some more searching on this topic and came across: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12898392/magento-500-error-paypal-payments-advanced
Deleting my paypal.xml file from my custom theme directory solved the problem for me. PayPay is now working correctly!

not getting any PayPal IPN

i am trying to implement paypal payment system on my website.
i am kinda stuck at receiving IPNs.
the website is developed in PHP, on ZendFramework and Doctrine 1.2.3
i used the example script located on paypal site for receiving IPNs, however it doesn't work.
for debugging purposes i left on the IPN page code that just inserts a new entry in a table in my mysql db, so every time i load the page, a new entry is inserted in the DB.
i tried again to use Instant Payment Notification (IPN) simulator from PayPal and try to send a new IPN to that page, however nothing is inserted in the DB, so my best guess is somehow paypal can't reach my page, even though it says IPN successfully sent.
the ipn url is something like: http://mydomain.com/shop/paypal/ipn
i finally got it.
as it seems, paypal does not send IPN data to urls like: domain.com/shop/ipn .
i created a separate php file, not related to the framework i use so the ipn url looks like: domain.com/ipn.php . now everything works.
I am getting back with a proper answer.
The reason it didn't work wasn't any paypal ipn url-form restriction.i used Zend_Translate for multilanguage suport and used as default language what the visitor browser was sending me back.problem was when paypal was sending me IPN it did not provide any default language, which generated an exception in my code and an application crash, so no IPN got received.
Furthermore, if anyone needs to have custom URLs in Zend they can use Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Regex, more information here:
