Ordering problem

-- url of the page with the problem -- : www.beeswaxcandleshop.com/Order-Beeswax-...-pails-of-honey.html
-- HikaShop version -- : 2.6.2
-- Joomla version -- : 3.5.1
-- PHP version -- : 5.6.20
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : firefox, chrome, any

We seem to have developed some severe ordering problems. I do not know if this is the cause, but we recently updated joomla to 3.5.1 and hikashop to 2.6.2

Issue 1 = when someone checks out and submits their order, they get this message:

Also the order emails do not go through to the customer or the store - but the order is in the hikashop backkend ok.

Issue 2 = When something is added to the cart, a different product gets added. If something at the top of this list is selected, only the item at the bottom of the list gets added. (with a very different price) If you go to any page ( www.beeswaxcandleshop.com/Honey-Soap-Mor...ml?jsn_setmobile=yes ) and add an item at the top of the selection list you will see the action.

Issue 3 = The left side bar is not showing on hikashop products. (such as www.beeswaxcandleshop.com/Honey-Soap-Mor...ml?jsn_setmobile=yes ) Although if you scroll to the very bottom it shows up mostly off the screen on the far left side.

Any help you can give me to get my site back up would be welcome.

So far I have not been able to find the offending email, but when looking in "order admin notification" section (that has been modified) I find them not upgraded to hika2.6.2 =

html version"<?php
/**
* @package HikaShop for Joomla!
* @version 2.6.0"

and
text version "<?php
/**
* @package HikaShop for Joomla!
* @version 2.6.0
* @author hikashop.com"

Could this be a problem?

On the 2 & 3 issue, I found the folder (product) -- but which file do I rename and what do I rename them to?

Thanks

Progress on the second issue - I renamed the folder "product" to "product-renamed" (I was sure this would break something - but you were right) It fixed the problem - I understand what you mean about checking each one rather than renaming the folder - but is it ok to leave it like this? (or rename it to "products)?

One the first issue with the checkout error - I thought that maybe it was because I was using an "alias" email - so I changed emails to one that is listed in my cpanel and not an alias. (although the address was not the same domain as the site)

I changed them all in:
- system global config
-hika-config-main-email section
-hika-system-email section - I changed them all to same in "sender information" section - note - all these now show that they have been "customized"

Another issue maybe related that I have been having is that after submitting an order and getting the error page - I click on the area that says "Go to the Home Page" and the main page comes up showing like the image below.

I have recently noticed that the address of this page is an https:// adresss and when I remove the "s" the page shows normal.

This is an issue I have had for a few months - It happens only occasionally but I have not been able to find the problem yet. This issue was occuring when the site was joom3.4.8 but the orders were going through ok.

Some progress - I disabled ALL of the emails and the error page went away and a test order went through. (But no emails of course) When I enabled the "Order creation notification" again the error came back. I could not find any bad emails in this section.
Below is an image of what I have now.

It shows lots of customizations - but they just appeared when I changed an email address - the only real customizations are in the Order administrator notification

Right now I am getting a good notification to the store, but the customer receives nothing.

It was a valid email - but I changed it to the same one in the other email section that was working and I still get the error page. There is something wrong with the system. Anyway Hikashop is sending the store an email every time but not the customer.

We are going in circles - I have done that many times - there is something else going on - attached is a screenshot showing the valid email
I am getting very frustrated - hikashop has always worked very good for me until now.

I did as you suggested and renamed the file, re-installed hikashop and a test order still produced a bad page, disableing the "order creation" section and the order went through (with the notification of course)The only logg error file I could find in the cpanel files was an "error.php" file - I thing modified at the time I installed the update. Here are the last few lines:

Or is this server log file something on my cpanel

Still looking for the problem - I turned in a ticket to the support people on our server. I triggered a bad order, then disabled the "order creation email" and check that the order was ok again. Then I had them check the server and looked at an "error_log" file and saw no reference to the issue. When error reporting is turned on and I trigger a bad order, There is no lower section with errors being reported on the front end when the error page is visible
.
I do see a lot of "duplicate database queiris" if that could be a problem.

More info on problem:

I enabled every email except the "Order creation notification" and a test order went through ok. The "Order creation notification" is the only one causing a problem.

I also found that some of my Hikashop links no longer work:
This one:
beeswaxcandleshop.com/index.php?option=c...t=listing&Itemid=289
is shown in browser as: beeswaxcandleshop.com/Order-Beeswax-Candles/category.html (SEF SH404 settings)
And does not work.

This bad link is in the "order completed page" that may be in the hikashop system ("You can go back to the Candleshop by clicking on this link")

Could this be part of the problem?

Either way what would be the correct link to my catalog page.

I just got the category links working again. I do not know what caused it - it was ok on joomla3.4.8? But anyway I made totally new ones in the menu and disabled bad ones and that part is ok now.

I just did another test order with the "Order creation notification" enabled and it failed. With this turned off the system works.

Is there any way to make an email go to the customer? Some kind of WorkAround? This is the main problem.
