Paypal sandbox test

I’m testing s2Member & Paypal integration, using a sandbox account.

I’ve created a member 4 button payment, and payment process is going fine.

Customer is redirected to my website, but his level is not updated.

Do I need to use a normal non-sandbox account in order to get the level updated?

  1. Please don’t use boldface for every word.
  2. The PayPal sandbox is essentially broken. (Note: nothing to do with s2Member.) The only meaningful way of testing using PayPal is with live transactions.

I think it’s not a sandbox error. I’m getting this in the Log:

LOG ENTRY: […]
Array
(
[subscr_gateway] => paypal
[s2member_log] => Array
(
[0] => No Return-Data. Customer MUST wait for Email Confirmation.
[1] => Note. This can sometimes happen when/if you are offering an Initial/Trial Period. There are times when a Payment Gateway will NOT supply s2Member with any data immediately after checkout. When/if this happens, s2Member must process the transaction via IPN only (i.e., behind-the-scene), and the Customer must wait for Email Confirmation in these cases.
[2] => array […]
[3] => Redirecting Customer to the Home Page (after asking Customer to check their email).
)
)

Any help?

PS. Yes, Paypal PDT is enabled.

Paypal’s sandbox don’t works, and long time ago. There is lot of topics about that here in the forum. Really nothing to do…
