Verify $_post vars error since PayPal updates.

  • ‘unable to verify $_post vars’ error.

    I spent 12 hours yesterday convinced I broke my site and trying everything I could think of to fix it. I followed every guide, checked every detail, then did it all again.

    While I slept I had technicians from my hosting company take a look – after several hours they are fairly convinced its a problem with the recent updates in PayPal, specifically the internal server error referenced in the logs and mentioned in this quote.

    …….however, the logs shows that Paypal threw a 500 internal server error, which is something we can’t debug as you’d need to ask Paypal what is going on there and that is perhaps the problem we’re having. Paypal did some changes to their APIs, not 100% sure if it was starting July or ending July, but they do have a lot of scheduled changes to be done this month that will affect their APIs.
