how to configue cart? Button cart or checkout lead constantly to main page!

With enable cart icon option, when i hover over the icon a menu displays, the buttons ‘go to cart’ or ‘checkout’ do not bring to the specific cart or checkout site, they constantly bring me to the main page.
The same goes from the site ‘cart’ i cannot configure the button proceed to checkout to bring me to the checout section instead I’m landing constantly on the main page. cannot configure that section. I have to adjust those buttons right that should bring the customer to the right part of the store.
