Title: A question and *maybe* a solution
Post by: gp@umbrellaumbrella.com on July 31, 2013, 16:16:58 PM
We were having an issue (Joomla 2.5, VirtueMart 2.0.20a) where if you added a product to the cart, went to the cart and clicked "Select Payment", the page was blank.

I THINK we fixed it by adding "Anonymous" and "Default" under Shop:Payment Methods:Payment Method Information Tab:Shopper Group field.

So, does this mean we have to have all the Shopper Groups for this page to show up?

Thx.

Well, turns out this DIDN'T fix our problem.

On this site: http://www.TopekaBar.com, Joomla 2.5.11, VM 2.0.20a)

• Add something to the cart - http://topekabar.com/events/events-pay-online
• Click Show Cart in the popup
• Click Select Payment on the Cart page  - the page is blank

Any ideas? Thank you!

Okay, we figured it out - but it indicates there may be a problem in VM 2.

Our htaccess file was stripping out WWW on URLs only when in the https portion of the site. When we go the the Select Payment page from the Cart, the page was blank.

Now we strip the www ALL the time and there isn't a problem. So we're thinking there must be something in VM that is getting confused about this page url.

Hope this helps lead to a fix. Thanks!

no, you just have your https only configured for NON www.

For the servers, for the informatic,.. www is just a subdomain. like forum.virtuemart.net. The best way is to forward anyone using www, directly to the non www domain. That is imho the best solution. Then you avoid also trouble with the activation links in the emails.
