# DPS interaction – missing txn

 * Hi Ross
 * Sorry to bother you again!
 * We’ve had a DPS transaction go through on one of our forms, apparently from the
   website, for which there is no DB record or email notification. Is there an obvious
   gotcha we might have missed? It all works fine in sandbox tests, so we’re scratching
   our heads a bit.
 * Can I please check with you the sequence in which things happen? We have elected
   to send emails only after completion – so does that happen only if/when the user
   returns from DPS, or when you receive FPRN?
 * Secondly, when does GF write the DB record? Is that before the DPS redirection(
   that seems to be what we see when it works), or is there any way that that can
   also get delayed until the emails are sent (i.e. until return from DPS or notification
   is received)?
 * Grateful for any advice you can give.
 * Cheers
    Colin

 * G’day Colin,
    - GF creates an entry record, with status = Processing
    - user is redirected to the Payment Express site
    - FPRN triggers status change from Processing to Approved or Failed and triggers
      deferred actions (emails, post creation)
    - user (hopefully!) returns to website
 * If your website isn’t accessible over the Internet (e.g. it’s behind a firewall),
   then FPRN won’t work and the user will need to return to your website to trigger
   the status change and deferred actions.
 * cheers,
    Ross

 * Hi Ross
 * Thanks; yep, that’s all what we thought. Damn, no easy answers then!

 * Are you sure the transaction came through from your website? e.g. does the Transaction
   Details view in the payment manager show that the HPP success / fail URLs are
   your website and gfdpspxpay_return?

 * Yep, no doubt, DPS info all matches. Interestingly, we’ve found a ghost in the
   DB; the wp_rg_lead_meta table has an entry with a matching DPS authcode, but 
   form_id and lead_id are both 0 – not a good look! I’m wondering if that entry
   was made by you on FPRN, but you couldn’t find the lead record? All I can think
   of is that GF failed to process the form submission for some reason, but did 
   fire your plugin?

 * G’day Colin,
 * Sounds like I need to do a little stress testing to see if I can duplicate the
   problem. What version of Gravity Forms are you running? I’m wondering whether
   it’s something that’s come up since the 1.7.x branch was released.
 * cheers,

 * Hi Ross
 * GF v1.7.2 (I see there’s a 1.7.3 already, so we may up to that)
 * The client’s site hasn’t had a lot of business through the GF payment forms yet,
   but they are high-value items and they expect to get a lot busier in a few days
   so we’re under pressure to make sure this can’t happen again.
 * Any info you can provide would be great; a colleague posted on the GF support
   forum also but I’m not sure if she’s had a useful response to that. Do you have
   any thoughts on a GF failure mode which would cause a glitch like this, you obviously
   have much more experience of working with GF than us?
 * Cheers

 * G’day Colin,
 * Can you please email me an export XML file of the form? You’ll find my email 
   address on my [contact page](http://www.webaware.com.au/contact-us/).
 * Do you have any other Gravity Forms plugins activated / linked to that form?
 * cheers,
    Ross
