 * Hi,
 * I struggle to get IPN to work on StageShow version 2.3.2.
 * 1. I enabled debug mode (as stated in one of the support treads – renaming stageshow_xdebug.
   php to stageshow_debug.php) – then ticked the IPN debug option.
 * 2. I double checked the IPN URL in the vendor’s paypal account.
 * 3. I re-sent an IPN message from the vendor’s paypal account.
 * 4. I noticed an error-log file created in the stageshow plugin directory with
   the following lines:
    [02-Dec-2013 08:14:41 UTC] PHP Warning: fopen(/home/xxxxx/
   public_html/teststageshow/../logs/LastIPNCall.txt): failed to open stream: Permission
   denied in /home/xxxxx/public_html/teststageshow/wp-content/plugins/stageshow/
   include/stageshowlib_logfile.php on line 69 [02-Dec-2013 08:14:43 UTC] PHP Warning:
   fopen(/home/xxxxx/public_html/teststageshow/../logs/IPNNotify.txt): failed to
   open stream: Permission denied in /home/xxxxx/public_html/teststageshow/wp-content/
   plugins/stageshow/include/stageshowlib_logfile.php on line 69
 * Am I missing something?
 * Thanks.

 * version 2.3.3 seems to have solved the problem – I’m using a sandbox scenario.
   Thank you!
