child variants / generic child variants

[Christosking]

Hallo!
Nice to see you everybody! May I ask for little help with something?

I am using the latest VM version and I have the following problem:
I try to create a parent product and add a list of different choises (for example to choose between different weights of the same product). I manage to create the list but when I choose a child product from the list, nothing would happen. I mean that the price of the product does not change, but remains stuck to the parent product's price.
I try to do this by choosing "child variant" or "generic child variant" in the "custom fields" but the same happens with both. The price always remain stuck.
I don't know if anything has to do with this but in "custom fields" I have always appeared this message:
Warning: SimpleXMLElement::xpath(): Unfinished literal in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\xxxxxxxxxx.com\httpdocs\joomla\libraries\joomla\form\form.php on line 1545 Warning: SimpleXMLElement::xpath(): xmlXPathEval: evaluation failed in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\xxxxxxxxx.com\httpdocs\joomla\libraries\joomla\form\form.php on line 1545.
I would appreciate every idea that you might have and maybe would be helpful if I tell you that I am very new to all these stuff.
Thank you very much!

Christos

Please specify what you mean by "Latest VM" - http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=79799.0

I mean the virtuemart 3.0.2 (downloaded the zip file from here: http://dev.virtuemart.net/projects/virtuemart/files)  which installed on joomla 3.3.6.
I have tried also other custom field types (string for example) but nothing... The price remains frozen, like there is no connection between the price and the list.

Hi Christos

Try to lower the error reporting level.

Go to Global Configuration > Server and set Error Reporting to "System Default"

Thanks for the tip balalai,  that help for me,  but isn't this just another  .. If I don't see it it don't happen... thing?

Better it would be,  the should be not happen those errors..  Mhh will wait n hope that the Devs will fix it without just blend it out..  [emoji6]

Yes i agree but in that stage it is better to avoid hacks.
Also they are not errors but php warnings (much lower level than errors)

[Christosking]

Thank you! I got rid of those php warnings!...
But still "cart attribute" does not work for me...The price does not change...  If you could also help me with that I would be gratefull.

I'm using joomla 3.3.6, VM3.02 on a test site with only virtuemart sample data installed and am getting the same errors.

I went into global config > Server and set error reporting to none. but I still see them
