CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I have the following setup:

1) Joomla 2.5.4 with CiviCRM 4.1.1.
2) Joomla SEF enabled.
3) www redirects to non-www domain.
4) Joomla configuration.php file has  $cookie_domain = '.mydomain.com'; and $live_site = 'http://mydomain.com';
5) civicrm.settings.php has: define( 'CIVICRM_UF_BASEURL' , 'http://mydomain.com/administrator/' ) and define( 'CIVICRM_UF_BASEURL' , 'http://mydomain.comg/' );
6) no Joomla user is created after submission, only contacts in CiviCRM.
7) I cleared the cache for Joomla before testing.

Problem #1: I created a profile form, it works fine the first time but not always. The url after submission is in the form: index.php?option=com_civicrm&task=civicrm/profile&Itemid=144&force=1&gid=9

If I try to fill up the form again, I get the message below.

The requested Profile (gid=) is disabled, OR there is no Profile with that ID, OR a valid 'gid=' integer value is missing from the URL.

Problem #2: I have a donations form that uses Paypal Pro. I made a donation using paypal, everything was fine. I was redirected to paypal. I paid. I was redirected back to the site. I confirmed payment. then... after confirming, I got an error about some problem with the receipt template but the transaction was processed correctly.

No such message template: option group msg_tpl_workflow_contribution, option value contribution_online_receipt.

Problem #3: if I change cookie variable in Joomla from .mydomain.com to mydomain.com only, then I get this other error: "We can't load the requested web page. This page requires cookies to be enabled in your browser settings. Please check this setting and enable cookies (if they are not enabled). Then try again. If this error persists, contact the site adminstrator for assistance.
Error type: Could not find a valid session key."


can anyone help me to get the set up working as it should be? I tried out everything (no SEF/sh404SEF/no sh404) and nothing works with civicrm/Joomla. If anyone has a successful setup between those two, could you please let me know what is wrong with my settings? thanks.
