Add to Linked List seg fault

[MWE_QUE]

Hello, and thanks in advance for any help I can get. This is part of a larger program for homework. Things were working when I called "addVacantStore" the first time before I wrote the search function. I then called it twice more to set up to test the search function. On the second of the three times it gets to "STORE *newVacantStore = malloc(sizeof(newVacantStore));" line in the createVacantStore function and gives a seg fault error, and I can't figure out why. Any help would be appreciated.

Line 55. How current is initialized?

I hadn't noticed that, and added a line, but I still get the same problem at line 35 when calling addVacantStore the second time it gives me a seg fault error. Any ideas?

Line 26 LINKEDLIST *list = malloc(sizeof(list)); Line 34 - 35

STORE *newVacantStore;
newVacantStore = malloc(sizeof(newVacantStore)); newVacantStore = malloc(sizeof(newVacantStore));

In both of these cases you have allocated the size of the pointer not the size of the object pointed to. Pointer is likely to be 4 bytes on a 32bit system (or 8 on a 64bit system).

When you malloc you need to allocate the size of the thing pointed to not the size of the pointer so line 26 should be LINKEDLIST *list = malloc(sizeof *list); or LINKEDLIST *list = malloc(sizeof(LINKEDLIST)); I leave line 35 for you to correct.
