I've been struggeling with the PayPal payment verification on our website when using Akeeba Subscriptions in combination with AdminTools.
I know there is now support for the Subscriptions component but I've come to the conclusion something is wrong with our AdminTools configuration or at least something is blocked by it.
The following I've already done and noticed:
- When setting our website offline using the "Emergency Offline" button and adding all paypal ip addresses manually to access our site in the .htaccess file (for testing), everything works fine. Atleast using the sandbox option(s).
- I've also asked our hosting provider to add all paypal ip addresses to the whitelist of the server firewall (just in case).
- The option "Disable PHP Easter eggs" is disabled and "direct file inclusion protection" is also disabled according the rules stated by the documentation.
- The log file which is normally created in the "logs" folder for the subscriptions component does not add any log exceptions anymore (it did before with the exception "The referenced subscription ID ("custom" field) is invalid").
- The admintools exception log shows me - around the time a certain user bought a subscription - a "MUA Shield" exception. The IP address blocked there seems to be from the company which just bought a subscription.
What can I do to be sure all notifications from PayPal are received correctly on our site so a subscription get's activated automaticly? Are there any steps I'm missing or any .htaccess rules (created automaticly by AdminTools by-the-way) I should remove or add?
Your help would be appreciated, thank you in advance.
