I am unable to get beyond receiving an SSL timeout when testing PayPal IPN with the PayPal Framework plugin.
Test environment:
OS = Win7 Pro 32-bit w/ sp1
Apache 2.2 web server
MySQL 5.5 server
PHP 5.3.10
Virtual host on ddns
Transactions w/ PayPal proceed as expected but are hung up because they are not validated by the IPN. I've read elsewhere that perhaps CA certificates are required on my server. I've downloaded a CA bundle from cUrl and a sandbox chain. Both are referenced in the Apache configuration. The plugin code includes an argument for wp_remote_post setting sslverify to false. Yet with all of this I still get an SSL timeout. Tens of hours of research and hundreds of trials get nowhere.
What else do I have to do? Where is the M so I can RTF?
