After upgrading to v1.0.0-beta I noticed that this was an issue. In Stripe, it is showing error 400. When attempting to run the through Postman, it reports
400 Bad Request The server could not understand the request. Maybe a bad syntax?

Thanks for the report @officialJCReyes! Is there anything in the Docker container logs?

@daveearley Here is the main part of the logs. I've attached a text file with the full logs after sending the webhook from Stripe.

513-docker-logs.txt

[2025-05-01 03:04:33] production.INFO: Refunded expired order {"order_id":1316,"event_id":11,"payment_intent_id":"pi_3RJicUE8iptpoxjJ0r4A7Nws"}
[2025-05-01 03:04:33] production.ERROR: Cannot accept payment: Payment was successful, but order has expired. Order: 1316 {"payload":"{

What I have been doing to manually fix this is running the following in the postgres database

UPDATE orders SET payment_status = 'PAYMENT_RECEIVED', status = 'COMPLETED', deleted_at = NULL WHERE id = ####;

This results in the order showing in the front end and being marked as successful. Once the order is processed, it either stays as Awaiting offline payment even though it was processed through Stripe or it is not visible at all in the frontend until I run the database command from earlier.

Just an FYI, that patch was recommended by ChatGPT and it seems to be working fine so far.

[daveearley]

The error occurs because the order has expired by the time Stripe sends the webhook. This should be rare, and is intentional to prevent overselling. In these cases, the order is automatically refunded, so manually updating it to 'COMPLETED' in the database is not recommended.

Is this error happening for every order?

Have you manually changed the order timeout setting?

[officialJCReyes]

When I change the order to 'COMPLETED' in the database, I first check Stripe. The transactions have been successfully charged to the customer. There were a few instances were it failed and one where it was refunded. I've only modified ones that showed as payment complete in Stripe.

This is happening on every order, for any event.

I have changed my order timeout settings to 60 minutes.

@daveearley You mentioned that this happens to prevent overselling. Shouldn't that only apply if there are venue and/or ticket quantity/limits in place?

For my event I have it set to "unlimited".
