I would suggest that since it sounds like you are using cart as a unique identifier for the order in your order.db that you consider checking the cart number against the orders.db within the store as you set it. If you find a match you can reassign a cart number to avoid duplicate orders within the process. Or as an alternative you could check against the cart number at the time of the purchase and if you find a match simply reassign it then. If however you are ending up with old lineitems from the cart from an earlier order you need to check your cleanup of shoppingcarts routines. Since we don't use the purchase routine built in to webdna but still use cart heavily we had to be careful about removing shoppingcarts and check duplicate cart (our sku) numbers within our order.db at the time of 'purchase'.
