Ah I see that it is in the registration fields. Thanks.

PayPal IPN and PDT – We double checked – are both correctly lowercase. So it looks like S2member has changed this to uppercase – do you know where or why? The field are uneditable in S2Member where they appear under PayPal options (intergration)

I hope this leads to the solution.

PayPal’s assessment of our problem with accounts not upgrading:

API program we are using (S2Member) is creating new Profile IDs instead of being open to editing existing IDs. They told us to visit this link and pass info to our developer

https://www.x.com/developers/paypal/documentation-tools/api/updaterecurringpaymentsprofile-api-operation-nvp

But, I expect that there is a very simple fix to this problem. We have clearly not filled in a field correctly when setting up S2Member, allowing Profiles to be updated / edited rather than only created. Can you direct me to where this might be and what it should be set up as.

Here are logs from two failed upgrades (LIVE MODE)

Did a further user test, upgrading a free member (a different LIVE account LIVE mode) to Single Session membership. Again it says Your profile has been updated successfully – (BUT it hasn’t) The user is still only FREE status. It takes the money – successfully. Tell you you have been updated and to log on again. etc… then after signing in again you are back to square one.

Thank you for your response. We have however identified that the problem is caused by the (Network Solutions) SSL on the page, because the upgrade button works fine on a page with no security. We now need help and advice how to resolve the problem with the SSL – is there code or something that can fix or force a translation so that the PayPal upgrade button works and communicates properly to PayPal?
