Stuck PayPal order plus creating duplicate store

[LRS]

I am trying to create a duplicate of my current store in an effort to solve the stuck PayPal problem I am having, and to add a credit card payment setup in the near future, without shutting down my current store.

I did an upgrade from 1.3.5 to 1.3.7 about a week ago, and that is when my stuck PayPal problems began. I didn’t have any stuck PayPal orders in the last year+ running 1.3.5 on the same GoDaddy host account. I did not have SSL enabled when I did the recent upgrade so I am trying to make a duplicate store that was installed from scratch with SSL enabled. Once I get it running I will switch over to it. Also I am pretty sure that in the boxes that asked for the https: directory on the existing install, I dd leave them as is, which might be the cause of my woes? I don't know where to check that information other than when Zen Cart is installed.

I now have a new database installed and a new store from this download: zen-cart-v1.3.7-full-patched-07012007.zip, installed in a new directory that was all done AFTER the SSL was enabled.

Do I need to install any patches to my current setup that was originally installed with zen-cart-v1.3.7-full-fileset-12302006.zip plus the two following patches:
zen-cart-v1.3.7-admin-patch.zip
zen-cart-v1.3.7-xss-patch.zip

Also just for grins, is this download:
zen-cart-v1.3.7-full-fileset-12302006.zip

the same as this one, less the two patches above?
zen-cart-v1.3.7-full-patched-07012007.zip


What files should I NOT copy to the new site besides the ones mentioned in this document, the /includes/configure.php and /admin/includes/configure.php.

Are there any files/folders on the existing install that will need to be modified in order to work with the new install that has SSL enabled, or should I be OK if just I follow article 100 above, after I have installed the needed updates if any to my existing installation?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
