    help question Re: USPS and UPS shipping module update

    Can I download JUST the modules? I saw a usps module on the forum but im dont think that its the new one.
    The prices I have in the modules that come with the zen cart I have have old prices.
    I need the updated UPS and the USPS modules.
    Thx

    Might be a good time to upgrade. If you're already at 1.3.8a, you may just need to uninstall and reinstall the module. If you recently upgraded to 1.3.8a, you may have carried over some old settings. Again, uninstall and reinstall.

    The shipping module for USPS and the add-on module for Click-n-Ship are two distinctly different things. If you just need to know how much postage to charge the customer, it's built in.

    Your site will work ... but your USPS shipping will not ...

    Get the new file:
    http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=144992

    Go to Modules ... Shipping and EDIT the USPS shipping module and Save all your current settings to NotePad ...

    Load the January 4, 2010 USPS shipping module file to your server and do a REMOVE, INSTALL and EDIT to configure it ...

    Linda -- would you please be more specific on what this update is for. I called USPS and they said the price changes are on their side and I would not have to do anything. I only use Priority Mail so if the changes are for some other type of service then this change would not apply to my use.

    Thanks,

    Larry

    USPS is mistaken ...

    When they updated the server they also changed the keys to the various services and they old ones do not translate correctly ...

    This January 4, 2010 update has the updates and various other updates to the code to allow for better rate quotes ...

    If you do not do the REMOVE, INSTALL and re-configure, you will not have all of the configuration_keys and the code will not run properly in many cases ...

    It takes two seconds to copy your settings to NotePad, and a minute to 3 minutes to do a REMOVE, INSTALL and then reconfigure ... depending on how fast you can type your user code and check/uncheck the boxes or any other customizations that you might need for your shipping ...

    I am using zencart 1.3.7.1 and I did the update as per the instructions (remove, install and update) now when I choose an international address I get:

    United States Postal Service -2147218052 - The ounces field must be less than 5 digits

    I have no problems with the domestic it works just fine, but since we get a lot of international orders this is a big problem.

    What does this mean?

    Thanks for your help!
    Thanks

    So I fixed this problem by adjusting our
    Package Tare Small to Medium - added percentage:weight

    We did have it set as 10:0 (i.e. a percentage) so I changed it to 0:0.05. (a set amount)

    With the percentage it was going to too many decimal points for USPS. Don't know why it wasn't a problem before?? But anyway!!

    So hopefully this is enough to cover our packaging I will have to adjust it if it isn't adding enough but at least our international customers can now checkout.
    Thanks
