Hi Guys
I am trying to get CBsubs working with Sandbox Paypal account. It workd to the point where I receive the IPN notices from Paypal and respond, but Paypal returns INVALID.
I have checked my setup many times so fairly confident it is correct - here they are for my Paypal Account (I assume they carry through to the sandbox account) - Autoreturn is switched on; return URL completed (root of my site and IPN messages are being received so this is OK); PDT switched on; ID token copy/paste into CBsubs so confident it is same.
Have set coding to UTF-8.

Not sure what to do next. Can someone help with some stuff I can try.
Many thanks for your help.

Any errors in History Log? Have you followed your CBSubs documentation exactly and configured your PayPal account exactly as instructed? Ensure data return handling is enabled for PDT (should be somewhere below configuring the Return URL).

Further to my recent post I have looked at the notifications further - and there are two entries for each attempted subscription - one returns VERIFIED and one returns INVALID.
Rather than post load of lines here I have attached a text file with raw results - hope this helps further.
Again many thanks for your help.

Set "PayPal Business (email or secure merchant ID):" to the Merchant ID. Then set "PayPal Main receiver account (email) (if Business is different from your main account):" to the email address marked Primary within your PayPal account.

Next navigate to Applications > Sandbox accounts for PayPal Developer and expand your test accounts. Then click Profile to view your test accounts profile settings. Now ensure on Settings that both Payment review and Negative testing are both set to Off.

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately I get an error as soon as I am transferred to the paypal sandbox:-

We cannot process this transaction because there is a problem with the PayPal email address supplied by the seller. Please contact the seller to resolve the problem. If this payment is for an eBay listing, you can contact the seller via the "Ask Seller a Question" link on the listing page. When you have the correct email address, payment can be made at www.paypal.com .
