I'm really happy with using hikashop business (5.0 at the moment) for some years now. but since my Joomla 4.4 update today at first glance everything runs smoothly. When someone tries to buy a product everything works fine until checkout last step when you press buy, there is an error message: 0 - Joomla\CMS\Mail\MailerFactory::createMailer(): Return value must be of type Joomla\CMS\Mail\MailerInterface, Joomla\CMS\Mail\Mail returned. But I can see the order in backend. But I get no mail, that an order was created. And I can’t change the Order-Status in backend. I get the same errormessage When someone tries to get subscribe to a waitlist the same error occurs, when you click on send. thanks in Advance") Category: [Install & Update](/forum/25-install-update "Having an installation or update issue?
