Last post by MHaz - December 23, 2025, 11:17:18 AMThe Database updated correctly with no errors. When I did the manual update, everything loaded normally. I only have the ContactUsFrm in my Forms Manager.
This is the error in my logs:
Line 25 is where I added the include('upgrade.php') line. Tried it there and at line 30.
This is the error in my logs:

Installation and Configuration / Re: AbanteCart Version 1.4.3 -...
Last post by ixl - December 23, 2025, 02:00:30 AMSo far found 1 file, but I need to spend time going through each dir...
This file is not the same as the latest release, so clearly missed during the update patches...
/storefront/controller/blocks/cart.php
I'll keep going.
Thanks for the help anyway, maybe I will find the files and it will work out, but its how this has happened that is bothering me.

Yes I've started to do this manually but its going to take too long.
I think given the fragility of updates I may have to shelve abante.
Its a shame tbh if updates are not stable to be applied, I cant be doing this every update or so.
Ill see anyway.
Was kind of hoping there was a script to do a check....

The best place to start would be a manual comparison between the working install and the affected one, focusing on:
Core files: compare the AbanteCart core directories to ensure no files are missing, outdated
Database structure: compare the database schema

Last post by ixl - December 22, 2025, 09:09:30 AMNot too sure now how to resolve this, clearly something is not right, as the hosting is fine on an identical install to email to and from in the same way as the base install with the issue.
I am wondering if there is a way to run some form of integrity check of the release? My main original release was installed via softaculous, but updated manually from your internal update feature within abante itself.
Also, you may recall I pointed out an issue with the emailing previously on the templates being different in the code, ( https://forum.abantecart.com/index.php/topic,11617.0.html ) so my theory is that the update is not truly being applied in some way, and maybe breaking the release that I have...

Installation and Configuration / Re: AbanteCart Version 1.4.2 -...
Last post by ixl - December 22, 2025, 06:20:00 AMI have just done a fresh separate install and the emailing works with the same settings I set above so as I say, i think something is breaking between updates as this initially worked.

Last post by ixl - December 22, 2025, 05:57:35 AMJust to advise, I have checked several things over the weekend and I cannot fathom out the issue.
It seems that regardless of which email setting I try to use, it fails for the "Customer Email" feature.
The strange things are that:
1, I can successfully apply the credentials in the first instance (for SMTP) and I do not get an error. I then receive a email stating my email config is working. However I still cannot send an email. However if I save the email setup beyond the first attempt, i then get the forementioned errors.
2, Regardless of the errors above, emails seem to work for :
Notifying new customers for new accounts and their activation
Order Notification emails to both customer and the admin
Emails for order updates to the customer.
The issue seems be around the SMTP manual email feature where I should be able to send an email to customers.
Kind of frustrating to be honest.
If anyone has any info on this it would be appreciated.
I have provided the correct smtp settings above...
Could it be that abante doesn't like non ssl?
Also, if i try and use the other non smtp options for mail. I get similar errors, so something doesn't seem right.
For example if I set to use "inner email" I get immediate errors when I save starting off with this..
Home/Settings
Mailer Validation Error: Call to undefined function Symfony\Component\Mailer\
So I dont think its directly smtp.
Further, if its rejecting the credentials then why do i still receive the notification stating the email setup is working immediately after I set them?
I'll discuss with my host but the above seems to suggest something else isn't right to me.
Thanks for your input mate.

Support / Re: Stripe Payment Extension v...
Last post by Basara - December 22, 2025, 02:02:51 AMHello.
For AbanteCart 1.3.2, the correct Stripe extension version 1.1.1 can be downloaded from the 1.3.2 release package here:
https://github.com/abantecart/abantecart-src/releases/tag/1.3.2
About upgrading to 1.4.3: the database data is kept, but layouts, blocks, design, and branding may need to be reconfigured, and any changes made directly to core files or the default theme will be overwritten. Only custom extensions or custom themes are relatively safe from upgrade impact.
Please make a full backup, clone the website to the test environment, and test before upgrading.

Last post by Basara - December 22, 2025, 01:57:25 AMHello,
It looks like the manual upgrade may not have been completed correctly. Did you see any errors when running the SQL upgrade? Also, please confirm that the database table prefix was changed correctly.
In the admin panel, you should see the same forms and fields for each form under Design > Form Manager. Please compare your setup with the demo here: https://www.abantecart.com/shopping-cart-demo

The error simply means your mail server (SMTP) is rejecting the credentials and/or the host/port combination, so authentication is failing.
The fact that you still receive the test email does not mean SMTP authentication is working. On shared hosting, this is most likely caused by the hosting mail server falling back to local delivery, especially when the message is sent to an email address on the same domain as the store.
To resolve this, you need to contact your hosting/email provider and ask them for the correct, fully working SMTP settings
