Hi 👋

#

Can you share the command you used to forward the webhook events?

For example this is what I run:

stripe listen --forward-to localhost:8000/webhook2/ --log-level info

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:26 PM

#

stripe listen --forward-to localhost:4242/cron/stripe_webhooks.php

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:28 PM

#

And you left that running in one terminal window while running the stripe trigger payment_intent.succeeded in another?

#

And both instances of the CLI were logged in to the same account?

#

https://stripe.com/docs/cli/login

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:29 PM

#

I didn't log the second

#

The problem is, when I launch stripe listen, I can't type any command after

#

typing in the terminal is locked

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:30 PM

#

Right

#

It launches an active process in that window

#

You need to leave that running and launch a new window to enter any other Stripe CLI commands

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:31 PM

#

Yep that's what I did

#

But nothing got fired after a payment

#

#

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:36 PM

#

These wouldn't show up in your Dashboard list of events but you would see them streamed to the terminal window where you are running stripe listen

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:37 PM

#

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:37 PM

#

Oh wait, sorry nevermind. They should show up in the dashboard

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:37 PM

#

Nothing in terminal too

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:37 PM

#

And what was the output from stripe trigger?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:37 PM

#

#

Do I have to login before typing the Stripe trigger ?

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:39 PM

#

If you did it should prompt you. That looks correct to me

#

Screen_Shot_2022-05-20_at_9.40.17_AM.png

#

I just ran the same command and my stripe listen showed the expected 3 events

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:41 PM

#

This should be showed in wich prompt ?

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:41 PM

#

The one running stripe listen

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:41 PM

#

But it show that after you type manually the trigger ?
Or after a payment on your account ?

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:42 PM

#

After the command stripe trigger payment_intent.succeeded

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:42 PM

#

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:42 PM

#

If you look at the Webhooks tab in your Dashboard it should indicate if you have an active Local listener (which is created by calling stripe listen)

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:42 PM

#

I try a second time and nothing move

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:43 PM

#

https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/webhooks

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:43 PM

#

#

Yep it' ok for that

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:44 PM

#

What do you see if you type stripe version?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:45 PM

#

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:47 PM

#

Yeah I'm pretty stumped here. And you are not seeing any of these events in your dashboard still?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:47 PM

#

No 😦

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:47 PM

#

And this is a standard Stripe account?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:48 PM

#

Yes

#

Maybe I have to try to close and relaunch the prompts ?

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:50 PM

#

Except the responses all indicate you are hitting the APIs correctly which I really don't get

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:52 PM

#

#

I try to run in the console of PHP Storm, and same problem

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:55 PM

#

Okay this may seem odd but can you try logging out stripe logout and logging back in again stripe login?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:56 PM

#

Inside the prompt ? Or on the web ?

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:56 PM

#

In the terminal windows

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 4:58 PM

#

I try

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 4:59 PM

#

Okay

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:01 PM

#

The term "stripe" is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or program
executable. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path exists, verify that the path is correct
and try again.

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 5:02 PM

#

but you just used the Stripe CLI in the terminal windows earlier, didn't you ?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:03 PM

#

yes but now I try with Powershell

#

I guess I have to add Stripe to my Path

#

Ok it works now from everywhere 😉

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 5:05 PM

#

Okay can you rerun stripe listen with the --log-level debug?

#

https://stripe.com/docs/cli/flags#flags-log_level

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:07 PM

#

stripe listen --forward-to localhost:4242/cron/stripe_webhooks.php --log-level debug

#

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 5:08 PM

#

Okay so now when you trigger an event do you see anything?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:08 PM

#

Looks different now

#

#

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 5:08 PM

#

Yeah you can see it's hitting the API

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:08 PM

#

It works now 😉

#

I guess the problem was the file stripe.exe was not added to my windows path

#

SO there was authorisation problem ?

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 5:09 PM

#

Ahhhh......okay. Perhaps.

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:09 PM

#

So now

#

I see the event objects in my dashboard, but not the response of my php file

quick wharf May 20, 2022, 5:11 PM

#

Okay well we've got the first part taken care of. The requests are being sent. So now let's look at the PHP file.

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:11 PM

#

For the moment I juste pasted the example

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:17 PM

#

👋 stepping in here.

#

As Snufkin had to step away

#

Can you summarize the challenge you are having?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:26 PM

#

I just want to debug my webhook file to be sure I don't have PHP errors

#

If I launch it directly it don't detect any event

#

My localhost server show me only thath

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:28 PM

#

Can you share an event ID you are testing with?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:30 PM

#

How can I pass event ID to my webhook file ?
With the CLI prompt ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:30 PM

#

How are you generating events to test your webhook endpoint?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:30 PM

#

I simulate manually an order with a testing card ^^

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:31 PM

#

Gotcha. So that should generate an event that is being sent to your webhook. You can find those events in your Dashboard here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/test/events

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:31 PM

#

But webhook file is asynchronous so can't debug

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:31 PM

#

Can you provide one of those that I can take a look at?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:32 PM

#

For exemple : evt_3L1YV1JCDeVgDheA1AtsZQoa

#

This was before I setup the local webhook

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:33 PM

#

Okay can you trigger a new one to your local endpoint?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:33 PM

#

With the CLI or a testing card ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:33 PM

#

Either

#

I just want to know what happens when you try to hit your local endpoint

#

Actually before you do that... can you add a log at the top of your local endpoint code and log out the req.body?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:35 PM

#

did a new event : evt_3L1ZihJCDeVgDheA1VmGCDiz

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:35 PM

#

dreamy forum Actually before you do that... can you add a log at the top of your local endpoi...

How can i do that in PHP ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:35 PM

#

For PHP you should be able to just log the $payload

#

I think error_log($payload) should work

#

I'm not a PHP dev but I think that should do it

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:38 PM

#

Done

#

I retry a new payment now ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:38 PM

#

Yep

#

And look in your local server

#

And see what logs there

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:39 PM

#

#

Show nothing 😦

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:39 PM

#

Can you share your webhook code?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:40 PM

#

<?php
include( __DIR__.'/autoload.php' );

// This is your Stripe CLI webhook secret for testing your endpoint locally.
$endpoint_secret = 'whsec_bb44d83814b6dc7bd188ef97cdd3208e28f855845bd718f4b9206de06670ae00';

$payload = @file_get_contents('php://input');
$sig_header = $_SERVER['HTTP_STRIPE_SIGNATURE'];
$event = null;

error_log( $payload );

try {
    $event = \Stripe\Webhook::constructEvent(
        $payload, $sig_header, $endpoint_secret
    );
} catch(\UnexpectedValueException $e) {
    // Invalid payload
    http_response_code(400);
    exit();
} catch(\Stripe\Exception\SignatureVerificationException $e) {
    // Invalid signature
    http_response_code(400);
    exit();
}

// Handle the event
switch ($event->type) {
    case 'payment_intent.succeeded':
        $paymentIntent = $event->data->object;
    // ... handle other event types
    default:
        echo 'Received unknown event type ' . $event->type;
}

http_response_code(200);

#

This is just the example for the moment

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:40 PM

#

That secret is from the CLI, yes?

#

Just checking

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:41 PM

#

The endpoint secret ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:41 PM

#

Yeah

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:42 PM

#

It's given by stripe dashboard or CLI

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:43 PM

#

Yes you grabbed it from the CLI right? Regardless, that shouldn't stop you from seeing something here in the payload.

#

Hmm

#

Thinking

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:44 PM

#

Maybe you can ask a PHP dev ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:49 PM

#

Hmm I'm doing the exact same thing as you and it is working fine.

#

Still thinking

#

You are getting sent back a 200

#

It seems to be working

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:51 PM

#

php -S localhost:4242

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:51 PM

#

Why aren't you seeing the event on your server....

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:51 PM

#

Maybe I should activate an option when I launch PHP server ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 5:51 PM

#

Can you change the response code?

#

No that should be fine

#

Try sending back a 400 instead of 200

#

And let's see if that changes in the CLI

#

Also let's add an error log for $event

#

So after you construct the $event lets log it out

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 5:53 PM

#

#

#

Trigger a new event and still the same

#

#

And I added error_log in the try

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:01 PM

#

Instead of echoing received unknown event type... just change that to test123

#

As far as I can tell everything is working

#

You are just not seeing anything on your server

#

Which doesn't make sense

#

But let's make sure

#

So echo something other than the default code provided

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:03 PM

#

dreamy forum Instead of echoing `received unknown event type...` just change that to `test123...

I did not echo that ^^

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:03 PM

#

You do? switch ($event->type) { case 'payment_intent.succeeded': $paymentIntent = $event->data->object; // ... handle other event types default: echo 'Received unknown event type ' . $event->type; }

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:03 PM

#

Oh sorry yes

#

yes sorry lol it was in the example

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:03 PM

#

Right

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:05 PM

#

#

I can see it in the dashboard

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:05 PM

#

Okay so the code is working fine

#

Well sorry

#

Not working fine lol

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:05 PM

#

OK thanks so everytime I have to read the output in the srtipe dashboard

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:05 PM

#

No

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:06 PM

#

Ha

#

?

#

What is not working ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:10 PM

#

There is still something wrong here... it is like no payload is coming through at all since you are sending a payment_intent.succeeded event but it isn't recognizing it.

#

And you see nothing in your error log

#

So like you are hitting your endpoint

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:10 PM

#

Ho right

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:10 PM

#

But you aren't able to ingest the event

#

Let's try something... you are using the legacy PHP route (with \Stripe\Webhook::constructEvent). Let's use the newer PHP stuff. Can you copy the code you see in our integration builder: https://stripe.com/docs/webhooks/quickstart

#

If you are curious, we talk about this legacy approach here: https://github.com/stripe/stripe-php/wiki/Migration-to-StripeClient-and-services-in-7.33.0

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:14 PM

#

I can't set API Key before getting the event, because my system is multiAPI Key

#

I realize I will have the same problem with the endpoint key ...

#

CRAP

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:15 PM

#

How were you initializing Stripe before?

#

Also what do you mean by "multiAPI key"?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:16 PM

#

I have a multi seller system, where each seller provied his API Key to the databse

#

This is the same seller but several location

#

Can I pass a param after the webhook URL ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:17 PM

#

Are you a Connect platform?

#

Sounds like no

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:17 PM

#

No I don't have a connect platform

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:18 PM

#

Then each Account would have to register their own webhook handler.

#

And input their own keys

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:18 PM

#

Yes

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:18 PM

#

So they would do that when they set up their integration using your code.

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:18 PM

#

But I don't want to code several webhook files

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:18 PM

#

What do you mean?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:18 PM

#

So can I pass a seller ID in the URL ?

#

webhook.php?seller_id=1

#

Then when Stripe call the webhook I can identify the shop and retrieve the API Key

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:19 PM

#

The events are only going to go to a webhook handler for the account where those events take place.

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:19 PM

#

Yep, but Stripe call the URL I give to him

#

So if I configure in each account an URL with the good param inside, I will be able to retrive the variable in my webhook script ri ght ?

#

For example :

#

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:22 PM

#

That description won't be sent with events to your webhook.

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:22 PM

#

Nop but the param in the URL yes

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:23 PM

#

I'm sorry, you completely lost me. If an event comes through, you know what account it is related to because only the account with that endpoint registered, and their webhook initialized with their key, will receive those events.

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:23 PM

#

in PHP I will be able to receipt $_GET['seller']

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:24 PM

#

dreamy forum I'm sorry, you completely lost me. If an event comes through, you know what acco...

Ok I will re-explain.

I will have 1 webhook file for several sellers.

I will pass the Seller ID, in a param in the URL, to retrieve it in my script

#

I will try now in local

#

stripe listen --forward-to localhost:4242/cron/stripe_webhooks.php?seller=1

#

#

It works 😉

#

Now I can retrieve my bdd like that

#

my API in bdd*

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:30 PM

#

Okay so you are talking about wanting a way to identify the webhook endpoint itself?

#

Then yes, that will work fine.

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:32 PM

#

Yes, no I try the new endpoint method

#

now*

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:35 PM

#

Sounds good

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:35 PM

#

⚠️ Webhook error while validating signature.

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:35 PM

#

Go ahead and comment out the signature for now

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:36 PM

#

This ?

#

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:36 PM

#

Just comment out $endpoint_secret = 'whsec_...';

#

Then it won't go into that if block

#

And it will just handle the event

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:38 PM

#

I have to turn endoint_secret to false

#

Otherwise it throw an error because don't exist

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:39 PM

#

Should just throw a warning, no?

#

Doesn't really matter

#

Sure comment that all out

#

Let's just see if you receive the payload and event

#

Also add your error_log($payload) please

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:41 PM

#

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:41 PM

#

What do you see in your local server?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:41 PM

#

#

Still nothing in local server 😦

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:41 PM

#

Great so that is working now

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:42 PM

#

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:42 PM

#

^ I meant you are receiving the event

#

Hmmm

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:42 PM

#

Yes

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:42 PM

#

add error_log($paymentIntent)

#

Right above your echo

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:43 PM

#

Did not see even on Stripe ^^

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:44 PM

#

Did not see what?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:44 PM

#

The error_log

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:44 PM

#

It would only show in your local server

#

You still saw nothing in local server?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:45 PM

#

I will check in the folders maybe it write it inside a log file

#

I will search on my own !

#

thanks a lot for your help and patience ! ❤️
This is awesome to have this kind of support

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:48 PM

#

Happy to help! I'm really curious what would be causing your logs to not show so I'm checking with a colleague if you want to stick around for a moment

#

Can you check your PHP version?

#

php -v

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:48 PM

#

Yep I can stay a moment 🙂

#

PHP 7.4.19

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:49 PM

#

Huh okay I'm on 8.1.5... wonder if that matters

#

Looking

#

Are you using Apache?

#

Can you try running php --info | grep error

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:50 PM

#

Yes Apache with Laragon on Windows

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:50 PM

#

Ok I think this is Apache specific

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:51 PM

#

grep command not found

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:51 PM

#

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5127838/where-does-php-store-the-error-log-php-5-apache-fastcgi-and-cpanel mentions "PHP stores error logs in /var/log/apache2 if PHP is an apache2 module."

#

Do you have a folder like that?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:53 PM

#

I search because on Windows this is not Linux architecture

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:53 PM

#

Ah right you said windows

#

I tihnk you run php --info | findstr /r /c:"error_log" on windows

#

To find it

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:55 PM

#

error_log => C:/laragon/tmp/php_errors.log => C:/laragon/tmp/php_errors.log

#

Great

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:55 PM

#

lol okay

#

So that solves that

#

That should be helpful for future debugging

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:55 PM

#

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:55 PM

#

Didn't realize Apache re-routes your logging

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:56 PM

#

I can see the log .... But problem

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:56 PM

#

?

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:56 PM

#

[20-May-2022 20:43:11 Europe/Paris] Received unknown event type

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:56 PM

#

Sure that is because you don't have a case for all the event types you are likely triggering

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:56 PM

#

But this event 20h43 in Stripe is Payment SUCCESS

#

Ah YES it trigger 3 event at same time

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:57 PM

#

Yeah

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:57 PM

#

I remember

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:57 PM

#

You can set the CLI to only forward certain events if you want

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:57 PM

#

How ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:57 PM

#

https://stripe.com/docs/cli/listen#listen-events

#

Specify events you want with -e flag

#

Otherwise it will forward everything

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:58 PM

#

in listening or triggering ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:58 PM

#

listen

#

If you trigger from the CLI it will only trigger the event you specify

#

But since you are testing through your own integration it is creating multiple events

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 6:59 PM

#

Okay thanks a lot for you help !<3

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 6:59 PM

#

Sure thing! Glad we got it figured out.

cedar herald May 20, 2022, 7:02 PM

#

Last thing (sorry)

#

It works because we disabled the endpoint_secret

#

What when I will enable it ?

dreamy forum May 20, 2022, 7:03 PM

#
