Switching SSL - email error

My client currently uses the hosts SSL and thier secure domain for checkout. However we purchased a ssl for the domain. While trying to switch the checkout process i ran into errors.

1. all i did do was on on the view cart page, i changed the form submit to url. this seemed to work fine, the checkout page and the confirm order pages both displayed normally withour error.


2. after i pressed confirm order - this is where i get my error. The order does save to the database, but i get errors on the email confirmation process.

i can look at the lines noted in the error, but im curious why i would get these errors when using secure checkout on her domain, but not on the hosts shared-secure domain.


The errors i get all refer to the same line in the confirmation email:
if ($_SESSION["eCartCheckoutForm_street2"] !="") echo "<br />";

what is the text of the error message?

It is impossible to tell what is causing an error without knowing what the error is.

Ok, can you send a copy of the WA_Universal_Emai l\WAUE_cart_confirm_2.php page in a zp archive so i can see the code at line 274

the line of code is the one i listed in the first email:
if ($_SESSION["eCartCheckoutForm_street2"] !="") echo "<br />";


Here is lines 273-275 (1 line before and after)

$MailBody = $MailBody . " ";
if ($_SESSION["eCartCheckoutForm_street2"] !="") echo "<br />";
$MailBody = $MailBody . "\r\n";

it should be:
$MailBody = $MailBody . " ";
if ($_SESSION["eCartCheckoutForm_street2"] !="") $MailBody = $MailBody . "<br />";
$MailBody = $MailBody . "\r\n";



the echo is causing the error.


any time there is an echo statement before the session_start() or header() functions, you will have that error.

ok - but its quite odd.
that file is working just fine when its processed on the shared ssl the host provides.

I will test your changed code tonight and see if i can successfully process.

Other than changing the submit to URL on the view cart page, is there any other steps i should be looking at to convert the ssl to hers instead of the shared hsot ssl?

with the different ssl certificate, you probably have a different ssl server and a different error reporting level. My guess is this new server is set to display warnings, but the old server was not, that would mean the error was still occurring, but being suppressed by the error level.
