on paypal sandbox, If I set autoreturn, no matter what site I put in, it always returns to checkout_success.
If autoreturn is off it still returns to checkout_success when I press back to merchant.
The order status is never updated. So Downloads are never available unless manual override.
Everything else works ok. It always tells me SUCCESS!
notify_url gets set to ext/modules/payment/paypal_ipn/ipn.php in includes/modules/payment/paypal_ipn.php
but, My ext/modules/payment/paypal_ipn/ipn.php never gets called.
This is the only bit of code that checks if ($result == 'VERIFIED')
Which module updates the order_status.
It's set to 3 (verified email - no) before and 3 (verified email - yes) after.
