Title: Unable to Checkout using paypal after updating joomla and Virtuemart to latest
Post by: purgamentum on January 23, 2017, 17:26:30 PM
Hi,

After updating Joomla and Virtuemart to the latest versions i am unable to checkout/confirm purchase from the last checkout page. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Paypal extension using the AIO file without success. No errors are generated from using debug mode. The page just refreshes when you click confirm and goes back to the same page, it just wont redirect. Can anyone help? My website is www.alienhydroponics.co.uk

Updated from exactly which versions to which?  See http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=79799.0

Have you tested with Protostar?

I've updated from joomla 3.4.1 to 3.6.5 and virtuemart from 3.0.64 to latest. I'm unable to test with another template as they are not installed. I could try installing one though I guess to test for a template issue. I have setup the site locally using a backup and updated it. The same issue occurred but has now corrected itself without me changing anything. I guess I could make a backup of the local site and restore the live site from that. It bothers me that I haven't found the issue though. Thank you for your swift response

IMHO it will be a JS error (the PP redirect is JS triggered)

I have seen esp. on Chrome that after a site update you MUST dump the browser cache as it often holds old JS versions
This is prob why the error is gone now

Hi,

This error was fixed by updating the cart files from an updated template. So it was a template issue
