Magento 1.9 Onepage Checkout – Fix Auto Redirect to Cart Issue

magento-1.9onepage-checkout

During one page checkout, after filling the shipping address and click upon next button page again redirects to cart page?

No errors are displaying and my log file also empty.

On app\code\core\Mage\Checkout\controllers\OnepageController.php file inside the method saveShippingAction() I can see $this->_getShippingMethodsHtml(). This causes the error.

To find the error on root folder index.php I changed the below line

#ini_set('display_errors', 1);

into

ini_set('display_errors', 1);

now on console I found below issue,

<br />
<b>Fatal error</b>:  Can't use method return value in write context in <b>/magento/htdocs/app/design
/frontend/default/default/template/deliverydate/shipping_method/available.phtml</b> on line <b>67</b
><br />

on available.phtml line no 67 I can find below:

<?php if(!empty($_rate->getMethodDescription())):?>
        <p class="address-block hide">
            <?php echo $_rate->getMethodDescription(); ?>
        </p>
<?php endif;?>

Note: The same is working fine on my local server, I faced this issue on production server only.

PHP empty function, prior to PHP 5.5.0 only accepts variables as parameters; see here http://php.net/manual/en/function.empty.php. Are you running different PHP versions on your local vs production?

From the comments I conclude that you don't have the soap php extension enabled.
This is not a problem normally for Magento because on the checkout it doesn't require SOAP for anything.
Either you have an extension that does something with SOAP when saving the billing address , maybe a shipping method that retrieves the shipping costs 'live' or the error messages logged in system.log come from somwehere else.
I suggest enabling the soap extension and trying again.

Magento – How to Add Page in Checkout

You are trying to define an invalid handler and block in checkout.xml.

You are using a handler that magento do not understand. i e.

<checkout_onepage_pay />

What you have done here is you are used an invalid handler instead of actual handler <checkout_onepage_failure />. Magento looks for this handler when onepage checkout fails. When magento enquires handler, its not present in your layout file. Hence it throws an error.

Also your block is also invalid (Most probly). i e

<block type="checkout/onepage_pay" name="checkout.pay" template="checkout/onepage/pay.phtml"/>

This block tells magento that, whenever a onepage checkout failure occurs (Assumes your handler is <checkout_onepage_failure />), you have to look for a block Mage_Checkout/Block/Onepage/Pay.php . Hence Magento fails to load this block type, since it is not defined. In default case the block that magento looking for will be Mage/Checkout/Block/Onepage/Failure.php and it DOES exist.

From your question, its difficult to understand what you are looking for. There may be two cases

You are trying to create a custom checkout onepage failure template

If that is the case you have to do this handler.

 <checkout_onepage_failure translate="label">
       <label>One Page Checkout Failure</label>
       <reference name="root">
            <action method="setTemplate"><template>page/2columns-right.phtml</template></action>
        </reference>
        <reference name="content">
            <block type="checkout/onepage_failure" name="checkout.failure" template="path/to/your/custom/template.php"/>
        </reference>
   </checkout_onepage_failure>

You just need to alter the template part of default block.

You may trying to set a payment method page

If that is the case, then you need to use this handler

<checkout_onepage_paymentmethod>
    <remove name="right"/>
    <remove name="left"/>

    <block type="checkout/onepage_payment_methods" name="root" output="toHtml" template="checkout/onepage/payment/methods.phtml">
        <action method="setMethodFormTemplate"><method>purchaseorder</method><template>payment/form/purchaseorder.phtml</template></action>
    </block>
</checkout_onepage_paymentmethod>

This code snippet is from app/design/frontend/base/default/layout/checkout.xml. Make changes to content of this handler.

Note: Whatever be the reason, it is not a good practice to change the the files that resides in the location app/design/frontend/base/default. Set a new package and theme and make changes to the directory app/design/frontend/<your_package>/<your_theme>/
