Please look at the server error logs – they will reveal the true error for you to act on.
Hi Mike.
I checked out the server logs and resolved those errors, but now I am getting this error when I try to checkout on the site.
SyntaxError: Unexpected token F in JSON at position 1
When I check console this is what is says:
Unable to fix malformed JSON
and it references checkout.min.js.
Any advice on where to go from here, I’m stumped

Found out the Ewww Image Optimizer and Jetpack (not activated together, but both separately) cause this error when checking out:
SyntaxError: Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0
contacted both pluggins support to see if they had any suggestions.
Very helpful article! It ended up finding out that my memory limit on my site was too low. Upped it to 256MB and now everything is working fine with both Jetpack and Ewww activated along with Woocommerce. Thanks for the help!
