import of HttpSocket in Paypal in cakephp - cakephp

Question

Well, here's what i got. I have a line of code here that imports HttpSocket in my CakePHP-paypal integration.
It is located in my /app/PaypalIpn/Model/DataSource/PaypalIpnSource.php. Here it is:
function __construct(){
if (!class_exists('HttpSocket')) {
if(App::uses('HttpSocket', 'Network/Http')){
$this->log('http socket imported','paypal');
}
}
else{
$this->log('http socket not imported','paypal');
}
$this->Http = new HttpSocket();
}
By the way, my HttpSocket.php is located here:
C:\xampp\htdocs\wifidrivescanportal\lib\Cake\Network\Http\HttpSocket.php
So everytime i try to access this function in my HttpSocket.php:
public function post($uri = null, $data = array(), $request = array()) {
//$this->log('entered post in http socket','paypal');
$request = Set::merge(array('method' => 'POST', 'uri' => $uri, 'body' => $data), $request);
return $this->request($request);
}
via this line of code inside my PaypalIpnSource.php:
function isValid($data){
// .... other codes
$response = $this->Http->post($server, $data);
return $response;
}
nothing happens. It doesn't log anything despite that i indicated it to log something particularly in some portions in /app/PaypalIpn/Model/DataSource/PaypalIpnSource.php

Answer 1

Debug the raw response data in the HttpSocket class. In 1.3 I had a few cases in the past were I had the same issue with this class.
Try http://api13.cakephp.org/view_source/http-socket/#l-292 debug($this->request['raw']) after this line.
The raw data might contain something that the 1.3 class does not pick up.

Answer 2

Well here's what I did these line of codes
function isValid($data){
// .... other codes
$response = $this->Http->post($server, $data);
return $response;
}
I made it this way:
function isValid($data){
// .... other codes
return $this->Http->post($server, $data);
}
Not so certain with the difference but it worked out this way. Once I finished my paypal integration in cakephp, i'll make sure i'll provide a tutorial for beginners like me. Hope I could help that way. My next goal is to do the encryption using ppcrypto.
