With a basic search and replace? If so you’ve broken any serialised values that use the domain in the DB.
If you go to Event Espresso -> Messages -> Default message templates -> Receipt
Are the contents of the template all empty?
Same for Invoice?

Hi there,
If you go to test an email from one of the email Message template editors, do you receive the test? If so, it may help to go to Event Espresso > Messages > Message Settings and set the the option for emails to be sent on the same request.
In most cases, setting up a third party service to deliver email will resolve email delivery issues. The built-in mail servers (especially those that are used for shared hosting accounts) can be unreliable. We recommend using a service like Mandrill, Postmark, or any of the other services listed in our documentation for sending transactional email. More info here:

how resilient is the system if maybe 500 users want to order tickets at the same time?

That will depend on your web hosting/server’s resources. A shared host will struggle and fail with 500 concurrent registration transactions. A VPS might work, but a dedicated server with more resources would be better.

Ok thank you.
the delivery issues are not when i send a test from email Message template editors. when i do a test order i the mails wouldn’t be send.
I think this issue appears since i changed the url path s in database.
Whats the best way to change url paths in database without any issues like empty contents in mails and invoice.

Do you have a copy of the original database before you use search and replace?
When you change a domain with a basic search and replace you break any serialized objects stored in the database that have the URL in them because when you serialize you store the length of the value, if thats the domain and you change it the unserailize function fails.
(This isn’t just the case with EE but any plugin)
So what you need is copy of the database from before you moved it, then use a plugin that handles serialized objects to handle search and replace for you, for example: https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-migrate-db/
Or if you want a script that can do it: https://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/
The plugin is the easier option of the 2.

ok thanks for the information.
is this the issue why mails cannot be send after placing a order?
i have an original dump with no changes in the url path but this database contains no transactions and Registrations. Can i import this?

Possibly yes, the messages system uses serialized objects so its possible, although I can’t be 100% sure.
Do you see the messages in the message queue?
Event Espresso -> Messages -> Message activity.
If so what colour status bar do the have on the left?

If you move the full database then the transactions/registrations will be lost.
