Testing the notification URL
In order to make sure that the Instant Payment Notification functions correctly, follow these steps:
- Make sure that your URL is available online: your shop must neither be in maintenance mode nor be protected by an .htaccess file.
- Make sure that your notification URL is available without any redirection.
- Make sure that the “Automatic redirection” option is disabled in the payment module settings.
- Check that the Instant Payment Notification URL at the end of payment is populated in the Expert Back Office (see above).
- Make an order on your website and proceed to payment.
- Do not click on "Return to shop" at the end of payment and close the current tab of your browser.
- Make sure that the order status is Processing or Pendingin the Magento Back Office.
If the order status is still Pending (pending_payment), this means that the call has failed.
If the payment gateway is unable to access the URL of your page, an e-mail will be sent to the shop administrator.
It contains:
- The HTTP code of the encountered error
- Parts of error analysis
- Its consequences
- Instructions to resend, from the Expert Back Office, the notification to the URL already specified above
