I integrating PayPal in Codeigniter 4 but I can't get data after the transaction for an updated database
What I want to do is to get a PayPal response from the IPN listener so that I can modify my database accordingly, but no matter what I do, it just won't work. I have already done the following in my PayPal Sandbox account:
- Enabled Auto Return
- Set Auto Return URL ('dashboard')
- Enabled Payment Data Transfer (PDT)
- Enabled IPN message reception
- Set IPN URL ('http:myDomain/Controller/index')The redirect to Auto Return URL not working fine too, after the transaction, the user can't back to the store until clicking the return button.
I can't get data in the database, I am sending data
