Commandlink method (controller) in action not working

Hello, 

I have this commandlink on a visualforce page:
 
<apex:commandlink action="{!saveProdChanges}" rerender="Messages" value="Save" immediate="true" styleclass="buttonprod" onclick="console.log('click save')">
                                                                    <apex:param name="buttonsave" value="{!product.id}" id="saveParam" assignTo="{!saveProd}"/>                                                                  
                                            </apex:commandlink>

which calls this method on my controller:
public string saveProd {get; set;}

public pageReference saveProdChanges(){

producto_simulacion__c productoEdit = new producto_simulacion__c();
productoEdit = [SELECT Id, categoria__c, cantidad__c, importe__c, descripcion__c, costo_unitario__c FROM producto_simulacion__c WHERE id =: saveProd];

update productoEdit;
}
I edited so i can try the button, I also trying with just:
 
public pageReference saveProdChanges(){

system.debug('Hello, this is saveProdChanges method');

}

but is not doing anything when i press the button. Browser console is not showing any error, it's displaying correctly the console.log on it.
Log in developer console is not showing the debug, but it does a log when I click it....

What could be wrong?

Hi Dixit

Please remove the immediate = ''True" from the Outputlink and try the Same code.

Thanks

I have already tried with "tue", "false" and removing all the statement and still not working. 

I have tried with a void statement in the method declaration and "public pageReference" with return null and still not working.

I just edit the button to be alike the example and the method.... but it does nothing. 
Where " <!-- your logic -->" is i just have a "system.debug('hello');" and is not appearing in the log. 

When i click the link it generates a log, but it doesn't have the debug of the method.

The button was part of a div who his parent div had a display condition (which in some cases was "none")... I read about it and the post said it can't be a button where all this conditions (condition on the parent of the button and the parent of the parent)... So i put the action on an "action function" and called the action support from jquery (the action function by itself didn't work either) when clicking and problem solved.
