We were getting reports from store owners about an increased number of Paypal orders which were “Paid” on Paypal side but marked as “Failed” on X-cart side. This seems to be related to the changes Paypal did at the end of last year and below is the patch which will fix this problem in X-cart 4:
1) Open your X-cart store folder in your FTP client
2) Download this file:
/include/func/func.https_libcurl.php
3) open this file in Notepad and find this code:
if (!empty($cookie))
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIE, implode("; ", $cookie));
4) BEFORE the above code insert code below – do not forget to replace YOURSTORENAME to your domain name (ex: mysuperstore.com):
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Connection: Close', 'User-Agent: YOURSTORENAME'));
5) save “func.https_libcurl.php” and upload back to “include/func/” folder. Note: before you upload this new file, rename old file in that folder to “func.https_libcurl.orig.php” in case the changes you made will not work and you want to revert back to original version fast.
Special thanks to Pitak who posted this fix on X-Cart forum.
Hope this helps and if you are not comfortable with using FTP or modifying PHP files, just send us a request from www.mystorehelp.com and we’ll do the changes for you.
