Hi, I have a problem with our new update to Joomla 4 and Virtuemart with OPC. Our current but outdated site works well.
We have been unable to get VM to pass an item from the cart to OPC. This works fine in our end-of-life (VM3, J3) live site at brisart.org.
All information below relates to our VM4, J4 development site at devnew.brisart.org
We do not host the site ourselves so we cannot control the speed of the server for our development site.
PHP version is 8.1.26 - System Information below:

The issue may be related to sessions and/or cookies.
Clicking on the menu item Cart https://www.devnew.brisart.org/cart shows the cart as below:
This is Helium Outline - Cart
(I have hard coded the text above into the cart to show the source of the cart)
(The text below is being inserted automatically by Virtuemart - so the cart seems to be working.)
Cart
Cart empty
Back to Art Classes
However, adding an item (art course) to the cart fails at the point of registration and passing the item details to OPC:
Select a course from the home page e.g. https://www.devnew.brisart.org/courses/short-courses/painting-short-courses/pen-wash-2985
This loads the course information into VM.
Click on the Register Now button and the following popup appears:
_______________
Back to Art Classes Proceed with Registration
1 x Advanced Pen & Wash was added to your cart.
_______________
Click on the Proceed With Registration button, which has the same link to the cart as on the main menu at the top i.e. https://www.devnew.brisart.org/cart
and the cart cannot be found and importantly, the cart can also no longer be found using the main menu at the top.
The cart can only be activated again when the brisart cookies are deleted from the browser cache.
I need to resolve this before we can develop plugin for Westpac bank in Australia.
here https://www.devnew.brisart.org/cart is a 404 when accessed from the top menu or the add to cart popup confirm
