Virtuemart SHopping Cart Module causing 500 error

[Milbo]

ahhhh
you are using the new source?  vmshipper got replaced by vmshipment.

The new updater has commands to change this. Take a look in your joomla plugins (j1.5) or extensions (j1.7) table and lookf for vmshipper and change it to vmshipment....
Then go in the virtuemart_adminmenueentries and change the the view shippercarrier or so to shipmemtmethod (same format like for payment)

yes i have used the newest source files. i have just followed your steps and changed vmshipper in the extensions table to vmshipment and changed shippercarrier view in virtuemart_adminmenueentries to shipmentmethod and now i get a virtuemart error saying "Fatal Error: Couldnt find file shipmentmethod"

i also get a 500 error when i go to add a payment method

i would be happy to pay you (an agreed amount) to look into it for me and get it working on my site... would this be an option?

I know this is a bit of a zombie thread, but I ran into this problem and noticed in my error_log errors like this:

Code Select Expand

PHP Fatal error:  require() [<a href='function.require'>function.require</a>]: Failed opening required '/pathtomysite/public_html/plugins/vmpayment/moneybookers/moneybookers.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib64/php:/usr/lib/php:/usr/share/pear') in /pathtomysite/public_html/plugins/vmpayment/moneybookers_acc.php on line 22 So I went to plugins/vmpayment/ and deleted all the moneybookers files and now the site loads correctly. My hope is that as long as I don't need moneybookers payment processing, everything will be fine.

Everything is fine, we took care of this in the new version, but it shows that you still run j1.5

[TecBrat]

That is correct. It's an old install and the upgrade (jupgrade) failed. Probably some non-standard db changes.

We're only keeping this site until July anyway, so I'm happy to find that VMart works on the older Joomla.

Thanks,

Not completly, you must comment out or replace two functions

Try to turn error reporting to maximum and the system will give you the problem.
For me it was a payment method that i dont use but it was published.
Unpush it and the error is gone.
Try it
