Joomla! 3.5.1 was released yesterday. I am sure, many of you have already updated to your site to the latest version. If you have not done it yet then you are probably planning to update very soon. Those who have already updated to Joomla! 3.5.1 and using VirtueMart 3, are expected to get PHP fatal error page on order confirmation page. This error is generated due to certain changes in Joomla! mailer library (JMail) in Joomla! 3.5.1. You may be thinking this is a VirtueMart bug but it is not. It just need an update as per the recent changes in Joomla.

Till the time the VirtueMart update is released you can make the following changes in your site to avoid this error.

Open components/com_virtuemart/helpers/shopfunctionsf.php

Find the following codes between lines 654 to 674:
		if(!$noVendorMail) {
			$replyTo[0] = $view->vendorEmail;
			$replyTo[1] = $view->vendor->vendor_name;
			$mailer->addReplyTo( $replyTo );
		} else {
			if(isset($view->orderDetails['details']) and isset($view->orderDetails['details']['BT'])){
				$replyTo[0] = $view->orderDetails['details']['BT']->email;
				$replyTo[1] = $view->orderDetails['details']['BT']->first_name.' '.$view->orderDetails['details']['BT']->last_name;
			} else {
				if (isset($view->user->email) and $view->user->name) {
					$replyTo[0] = $view->user->email;
					$replyTo[1] = $view->user->name;
				} else {
					$replyTo[0] = $view->user['email'];
					$replyTo[1] = $view->user['name'];
				}
 
			}
 
			$mailer->addReplyTo( $replyTo );
		}

Replace above by:
		$replyTo = array();
		$replyToName = array();
 
		if(!$noVendorMail) {
			$replyTo[0] = $view->vendorEmail;
			$replyToName[0] = $view->vendor->vendor_name;
		} else {
			if(isset($view->orderDetails['details']) && isset($view->orderDetails['details']['BT'])) {
				$replyTo[0] = $view->orderDetails['details']['BT']->email;
				$replyToName[0] = $view->orderDetails['details']['BT']->first_name . ' ' . $view->orderDetails['details']['BT']->last_name;
			} else {
				if(isset($view->user->email) && $view->user->name) {
					$replyTo[0] = $view->user->email;
					$replyToName[0] = $view->user->name;
				} else {
					$replyTo[0] = $view->user['email'];
					$replyToName[0] = $view->user['name'];
				}
			}
		}
 
		if(count($replyTo)) {
			if(version_compare(JVERSION, '3.5', 'ge')) {
				$mailer->addReplyTo($replyTo, $replyToName);
			} else {
				$replyTo[1] = $replyToName[0];
				$mailer->addReplyTo($replyTo);
			}
		}

Save the file and you are done.
