Hi I’m having a right headache trying to resolve this I basically have a reoccuring event running on mutiple days I recently changed the registration dates so it would populate this coming year and also changed the price of the tickets – since doing this all customer are showing and incomplete although money is being taken from there paypal account, I looked at the paypal.ipn_results.log and this is what it says .. redacted – LOC

I have no idea why this has suddenly changed:( the url of the site is http://revolutionbikepark.co.uk/book/ your help would be appreciated as lots of people are trying to book for the coming race season |
Hi, I did find this in the log: Errors resulting from the execution of curl transfer: Connection timed out after 45001 milliseconds[12/22/2014 2:51 PM] – FAIL: IPN Validation It looks like the IPN is timing out. Have there been any recent changes to the server or the site such as security plugin installs? — |

Thanks for the quick response – no changes I’m aware of apart from the changes to the events.. it’s got me stumped and as this is a live site/event I cant express how much I need to get to the bottom of this |
Hi Thomas, Have you checked with the server’s administrator to see if they’ve updated the firewall’s configuration or updated the cURL modules recently? |

Hi Josh, no updates on the hosts end unfortunately. Looking back through the log I’ve seen that this same error/timeout pops up quite a few times – the strange thing is that after changing the ‘registration date reoccurring formula’ now all the transactions come with this error – I’ve just put another transaction through here’s the return url from PayPal http://revolutionbikepark.co.uk/?page_id=368&r_id=4518-549855cd8942f&type=paypal don’t know if this will help.. |

Hi sorry to pester have you had chance to look further into this? I’m being inundated with emails from customers really need to find a fix. Thank you in advance |
Hi, could you double-check that the PayPal IPN URL is set to your Event Espresso transactions page? This should be similar to this: example.com/transactions/ Next, please try the simplified transactions template: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/how-to-set-up-paypal-ipn/#troubleshooting — |

Hi I’ve checked IPN URL which is fine and have tried a payment with the simplified template and still have the same issue.. |
Hi Thomas, It may help to set the cURL timeout to a higher value so it has more time before the timeout: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4858104/how-to-remove-curl-time-limit-in-php |

Hi Josh thanks for getting back to me, how would I go about doing that is it something my host will do or can I do it myself? |
Hi, this is something that your host can help you configure on the site. It is a server config which is above WordPress. — |
