Errors messages

I am getting these errors when testing on live site:


Warning: mysql_select_db(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /mnt/w0110/d06/s38/b0318be6/www/airbornavionics.com/confirm.php on line 193

Warning: mysql_query(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /mnt/w0110/d06/s38/b0318be6/www/airbornavionics.com/confirm.php on line 227

Any clue what they may be.

You are getting this error because of the values in your connection file. You will need to update the connection file on the live server to make use of the values for the live db rather than the values for your local db. This is the file that is in the Connections folder on your server.

I checked and double checked the values in the connections folder reference to this error; however I am still getting them.

My client is not using any payment gateway for processing. He is just getting emails from customers that they are ordering something and he calls later to arrange payment information. I made a test purchase, put in billing (basically shipping information, no CC #'s or payment info) information, clicked to confirm and it goes to the screen with those errors listed. I get a confirmation email, so that is working; however, I don't get redirected to success page or any other page. What could be the issue?

When you get the errors about the MySQL-Link it is because of the connection file. If the values in your connection file have different names, or you are missing a part of it you can get this error message. You can also get this error message if the code that makes use of the connection file occurs before the connection file is included.

Are these the errors you are getting on the checkout failure page? If so you should take a look at the page and make sure that you have the incude for the connection file above the lines of code that are giving you this error.

I don't have a checkout failure page, I guess since I don't have a payment gateway. The error keeps leading to the confirm.php, which I have attached as a zip file. All my connections to the database are working, with every thing else. The orders are also not being placed into the database as well. Check out the confirm.php and let me know what I am missing. If you could point me in the right direction on what I need to do.

You are missing the include for the connection file at the top of the page. You should take a look at another page in your site to find the line for the connection and put it at the top of this page, it might look like this:

<?php require_once(Connections/your_connection_file.php); ?>

Eric, you and your support staff are awesome. Your solution worked. Thanks for your assistance.

Okay...I found something else...the order number is not being posted on the confirmation email. Is there to fix something to make this happen? Thanks in advance.

It looks like the order id is being set in the store order summary server behavior as Airborne_OrderID. On the email receipt page you should be able to reference it like this:

if(!session_id()) session_start()

echo $_SESSION['Airborne_OrderID'];

What do you have in the email receipt to display the id currently?

Order number: <?php echo ((isset($_SESSION["Airborne_OrderID"]))?$_SESSION["Airborne_OrderID"]:"")?>

is that right

That is rite, I have opened a ticket for you on this issue so we can look into it further. To update the ticket or check it's status please login and visit your support history.
