Cannot modify header information - you find many help topics on in the forum. Do a search.

​Most likely white spaces in code.

 

And you running this on a windows setup. Do you have a mailserver running at your computer providing smtp service at port 25 at all.

Forget the "Headers already sent" error - It's caused by the first error, which as the previous poster alluded to the fact you probably don't have a "mail server" set-up on your PC.

The use of WAMP or any other local environment software to set up your osCommerce store is ONLY so you can complete MOST of the work before uploading the cart to a live server. SOME of the functions will not work in a local environment, like email for example.

I have run emails successfully in a localhost environment using xampp for windows v1.7.3 You must have a mailserver properly configured inyour localhost environment! This is only for testing purposes only! The trick is to modify some files only to be run in a localhost environment. After testing your site and emails uncomment out the error checking.

 

See my thread here

or if your interested in setting up a virtualhost see here:

Again, let me reiterate, local environments should only be used up to a certain point. After which you should move your site to a live server for testing.
