I have a website ( say for example ABC.com ) that works perfectly, and which is triggered by a file named :-
index.html
I have included a paypal facility on my website.
When a transaction is successfully completed, I want an 'Auto Return', so that after successfully paypal transaction, the website should return to a file called :-
return.html
In paypal I put the URL, of this file as :-
http://ABC.com/return.html

However, when a user completes a successful paypal transaction, the following error message appears :-
Can't find file

All my html files for my website are in the same directory, and this is also where I have placed the new file :- return.html

Can someone tell me, whether the URL is wrong, or whether the return.html file has been placed in the wrong location ?

I have just checked these names :-

The return URL :- http://www.ABC.com/slingpurchaseconfirmation.html

The website html file name is :- SlingPurchaseConfirmation

The error message is :-

' The requested URL, was not found on this server '

Anybody got any ideas ?

The most common cause of that error is when the file in question does not exist in the directory specified. Is the file in the root directory?

are you putting in the entire url or just the file name in the paypal thing? can you get to the file withoutbeing linked from paypal? i.e. just typing it in your address bar.
