testing by new paypal sandbox account - php

Is there any big change in paypal test sandbox account? i was testing using sandbox account before well but these days it seems i can't login to sandbox account using my previous login credentials! by going this link -
https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_login-run
I read by searching through google.com that its needed to have a real paypal account to login to sandbox account! but i am in bangladesh where paypal is not available.So in this case am i wrong what i knew till now? or give me suggestions how to test using paypal sandbox test accounts properly when my country is not listed in paypal.

You don't need to have a live PayPal account to use the Sandbox. You do need to have an account on Developer.PayPal.com though. You need to be logged into Developer.PayPal.com to properly use the Sandbox.
When the new Developer.PayPal.com site was introduced it was required that users needed to have a PayPal account but that was ended.

Does paypal no longer support and provide IPN facility for new websites?

I've been using paypal IPN for developing ecommerce sites in the past. Its been now more than 1 yr since I last used paypal on any of my projects. But now when I wanted to setup Paypal for a new website I could no longer find the page where I could setup my PayPal IPN url. I tried logging in with paypal.com, sandbox.paypal.com and developer.paypal.com. And nowhere I can find a place to enter IPN url. Even with the sandbox account, I couldn't find the page where I could configure my store and enter the IPN url. Can any one help me find it or does paypal no longer provide IPN for processing payment for new projects?
try this link, https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/customerprofileweb?cmd=_profile-ipn-notify and see if you can check your IPN

Paypal payment pro doesn't work with canadian API Credentials

I'm trying to implement a direct card payment on the site using paypal payments Pro.
I have two test bussiness pro accounts in sandox - one US and one CA. When I try to pay to the US account, it works well, but when I try to use API Credentials for the CA account, it returns an error: "This transaction cannot be processed. The merchant's account is not able to process transactions."
Where is the problem?
Thank you for responses.
You can't use the same Pro account on separate PayPal accounts. Need to get that feature approved and enabled on each account separately.

Sandbox configuration on paypal

I am trying to test my websites payapl connection using paypal sandbox.
These are the steps that followed already.
Created a Real Paypal account and logged into developer.paypal.com
Already created two email accounts which are Business and Personal.
Used the Business email as the Merchant on my paypal page.
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="gal-facilitator#yahoo.com" />
When i redirected to the paypal page at the check out page, tried to login to the paypal and do the payment using Personal account which is on Developer.paypal.com
But when i do that,
Please make sure you have entered your email address correctly.
Please re-enter your PayPal password.
I am pretty sure that User Name and password are correct.
Any reason or am i doing anything wrong/
Please point out if anything wrong.
Thanks in advance

How Can I check that my paypal adaptive payment is working?

I have created an paypal adaptive transaction system. Using sandbox for testing my code.
But, For checking that my code is working for successful transaction which account be used for buying in test mode ?
Already, I have tried to buy using my sandbox business account credentials but it say wrong email or password . Could you suggest me about it ?
I added a figure in below:
I am awaiting for an affirmative response from you. How can I check it?
You said that you are using sandbox environment for testing paypal transactions, but I can see that you webpage it's on paypal. Therefore any sandbox accounts won't work on the sandbox environment.
You need two accounts created in sandbox:
one for business ( type of account needs to be business )
one for purchases ( type of account needs to be personal )
Also, make sure that any form action attribute points to sanbox.paypal.com not paypal.com
Hope that helps
EDIT: you can make purchases using the personal account

PayPal experienced issues related to Business Sandbox accounts with the Pro option enabled being unable to login over the last week. This issue has since been resolved. If you continue to have issues logging into your Sandbox test account I suggest contacting PayPal Customer Support directly.
