I'm experiencing an issue where, when I enable those two modules my store stops working. I've outlined all the problems in this thread.
I'd like to get everything working correctly, but I have a separate issue that needs attention too.
The site I'm currently developing needs to have and incomplete checkout. What I'm looking to do is:
- have customers put all their items in their cart.
- check out their purchase.
- choose payment method.
- not process payment.
- suspend checkout with a 'pending' status.
- e-mail shopkeeper with itemized list of what customer wants.
- have shopkeeper amend/update order according to current 'in stock' items.
- have shopkeeper release order so payment can now be processed and completed.
If you can think of a better way to do what I want I'm open. What my client needs is a way to alter orders based on his stock. He sells invertebrates and is afraid that he won't be able to keep inventory levels accurate all the time. He doesn't want customers able to complete an order until he's been able to verify that he can fill it.
Thanks,
David

_ec_mail_modref() SERIOUS ERROR! - adding reminder
I recently installed the 5.x-4.0-alpha1.
I then rolled back to version 5.x.3.0 b/c I wanted to have the authorize.net payment module and the shipping API on my ecommerce install.
I tried the steps as below...to uninstall 5.x-4.0-alpha1.
(pre) I un-enabled the module
(pre2) I used Drupal GUI to drop all tables from the database
(1) Deleting all EC tables. manually
(2) Deleting EC information from the system table.
delete from system where filename like '%ecommerce%' and type ='module';
(3) Deleting all EC variables from the variables table, including those not prefixed by EC.
delete from variable where name like 'ec_%' or name like 'payment_%' or ...;
(4) Reinstall by the instructions as set in the Ecommerce handbook
This sort of worked,
I enabled the store module (which enables the core the ecommerce module)
I then enabled the Address module
I then enabled the Authorize.Net module
I then enabled the Generic Product then the Parcel Product Product types
I then enabled the Invoice module
Then I finally enabled the Ship Calc and Shipping API modules
I get the monstrous error stated all through this post (starting with _ec_mail_modref() SERIOUS ERROR! ) but then I refresh the page
Now when I view http://www.mysite/admin/build/modules. I see that the Shipcalc module is enabled and the Shipping API module is greyed in so you can't check it , but then it appears to be working....
I think that the 5.x-4.0-alpha1 module is inserting more into the MySQL database than meets the eye.
Any suggestions?
