PayPal IPN Test Panel Access Denied

[DerekJ]

Hi All

I've just installed the OSC PayPal 3.0a contrib. and all seems to be working fine, except when I try to use the IPN Test Panel in administrator I get bounced to forbiden.PHP with the "Access Denied" message.

I've tracked this down to the module
catalog/admin/application_top.php in the lines (bottom of file):-

//Admin begin
if (basename($PHP_SELF) != FILENAME_LOGIN && basename($PHP_SELF) != FILENAME_PASSWORD_FORGOTTEN) {
tep_admin_check_login();
}
//Admin end

If I comment out the tep_admin_check_login();, the error does not occur, but I loose the Admin Login requirement!

I also get the same message when I click the "details" link in the order page.

I tried setting the attribs for all files in the new modules/payment/paypal to 777 but this did not work.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks (again) in advance
Derek

OK I think I have it.
But someone with more experience may like to comment too!
First, check this line is in "catalog/admin/includes/filenames.php"
define('FILENAME_PAYPAL', 'paypal.php');

Then in "catalog/admin/includes/functions/general.php"
Find the line
function tep_admin_check_login()
Just below this, find the line
if ($filename != FILENAME_DEFAULT && $filename != FILENAME_FORBIDEN && $filename != FILENAME_LOGOFF && $filename != FILENAME_ADMIN_ACCOUNT && $filename != FILENAME_POPUP_IMAGE && $filename != 'packingslip.php' && $filename != 'invoice.php' ) {

(It's line 22 in my version)

At the end insert

&& $filename != FILENAME_PAYPAL

just after 'invoice.php' and before ")"

This seems to work OK for me!
