[SOLVED] fsocketopen

[steviez]

Hi,

 

I have just installed a paypal IPN script on my site and im reciveing this error:

 

Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument passed by value; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of fsockopen(). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file. However, future versions may not support this any longer.

 

Whats wrong and how can i fix it?

Don't use fsockopen( &$var ....

 

use: fsockopen( $var ...

 

or: fsockopen( 'value' ...

I have done that but now all i get is a blank page and a email saying bad order. Here is the code:

 

<?php
class paypal_ipn
{
var $paypal_post_vars;
var $paypal_response;
var $timeout;

var $error_email;

function paypal_ipn($paypal_post_vars) {
	$this->paypal_post_vars = $paypal_post_vars;
	$this->timeout = 120;
}

function send_response()
{
	$fp = @fsockopen( "www.paypal.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 120 );

	if (!$fp) {
		$this->error_out("PHP fsockopen() error: " . $errstr , "");
	} else {
		foreach($this->paypal_post_vars AS $key => $value) {
			if (@get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
				$value = stripslashes($value);
			}
			$values[] = "$key" . "=" . urlencode($value);
		}

		$response = @implode("&", $values);
		$response .= "&cmd=_notify-validate";

		fputs( $fp, "POST /cgi-bin/webscr HTTP/1.0\r\n" );
		fputs( $fp, "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n" );
		fputs( $fp, "Content-length: " . strlen($response) . "\r\n\n" );
		fputs( $fp, "$response\n\r" );
		fputs( $fp, "\r\n" );

		$this->send_time = time();
		$this->paypal_response = "";

		// get response from paypal
		while (!feof($fp)) {
			$this->paypal_response .= fgets( $fp, 1024 );

			if ($this->send_time < time() - $this->timeout) {
				$this->error_out("Timed out waiting for a response from PayPal. ($this->timeout seconds)" , "");
			}
		}

		fclose( $fp );

	}

}

function is_verified() {
	if( ereg("VERIFIED", $this->paypal_response) )
		return true;
	else
		return false;
} 

function get_payment_status() {
	return $this->paypal_post_vars['payment_status'];
}

function error_out($message, $em_headers)
{

	$date = date("D M j G:i:s T Y", time());
	$message .= "\n\nThe following data was received from PayPal:\n\n";

	@reset($this->paypal_post_vars);
	while( @list($key,$value) = @each($this->paypal_post_vars)) {
		$message .= $key . ':' . " \t$value\n";
	}
	mail($this->error_email, "[$date] paypay_ipn notification", $message, $em_headers);

}
}

?>

I would have been surprised that you got it to work the first time.

 

Now you need to debug your script.

 

Google IPN scripts and tutorials. Also, look at paypals developer support site.
