Session Lost after Paypal redirection

[Loganathan Sellapa]

Hi All,

I am using PAYAPAL payment  type in my application where I am storing the user's product id in a session. But the session variable is getting lost when the page is redirected back to my application from PAYPAL webiste, any suggestion will be really appreciated.

regards,

Generally it shouldn’t happen, we have data in session before and after coming back form paypal… but in your case if its missing, then you could do one thing… send product id to paypal and retrieve it back form paypal…on success / cancel…

 

Thanks and Regards

It seems you're using Paypal Express checkout and not Pro APIs. 

 When PayPal issues the callback, it us essentially independent  of the session (otherwise it opens up scope for session hacking). 

PayPal can be configured with pass-through params which you should use for sending product_id.

Hi All,

Thanks for your responses, the session was null due to authenticity token verfication failure. Now I made the paypal redirect request as GET method so the issue is fixed.
