    Default FedEx Web Services Shipping stopped

    Hi All
    Not sure what has happened. FedEx rates are not showing in the estimate shipping or checkout. It seems to have stopped abruptly yesterday.

    I have had FedEx Web Services Shipping installed on 2 sites for almost a year and have been working fine. Both sites are hosted by different companies. Both sites are 1.3.9h and are using the same version of FedEx Web Services Shipping.

    Sites are:
    http://www.hercuglass.com/
    and
    http://santanoni.biz/

    anyone else experience this or any ideas as to what may have happened or how to fix?

    John

    I heard there's a change at FedEx in regards to 'meter numbers'. I am trying to install FedEx on ZenCart and have asked for assistance in a separate post but no reply from anyone here yet.

    Can we use FedEx on ZenCart at this point? Someone?
    Thanks

    We just installed the Numinix addon this week.

    Call Fedex Web Integration 1-877-339-2774 for the


    • Authentication Key
    • Meter Number
    • Account Number
    • Production Password


    Fedex gave me production credentials and told me not to bother with the test credentials.

    After calling up FedEx, follow the information from the link below to get everything set-up.

    Just FYI, the FedEx support line for developers was very helpful and they walked me through step-by-step to get the information I needed from them (Authentication number, meter number, and production password).

    Hello All
    Thanks for your input
    It turns out the meter # I had been using was on an old system that they are fazing out. Once I had the new meter #, all was OK. Others may be hit by this, as the faze out will be completed by the end of May 2012 and they are switching people off slowly. So, beware and be prepared to get a new meter # if necessary
    Thanks again

    Hi Catech,

    Were you actually able to get this FedEx Web Services Shipping module to function? I've been over the instructions in this thread (http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1106959) and I can't seem to get it to function!

    I was just curious if other people are also bumpring into the same issues.

    It appears there are hidden settings in the module that aren't in the admin config. They may be there to force us to hire the developer for install services. The instructions I have for these hidden settings seem outdated. I found extra junk settings beyond what i show below.

    1. includes/library/fedex-common.php5
    Change XXX/YYY in the below lines with the information provided by FedEx.
    if($var == 'shipaccount') Return 'XXX'; //FedEx Test Account Number
    if($var == 'billaccount') Return 'XXX'; //FedEx Test Account Number
    if($var == 'meter') Return 'XXX'; //FedEx Test Meter Number
    if($var == 'key') Return 'XXX'; //FedEx Developer Test Key
    if($var == 'password') Return 'XXX'; //FedEx Developer Password

    2. includes/modules/shipping/fedexwebservices.php
    Change the below lines
    @define('MODULE_SHIPPING_FEDEX_WEB_SERVICES_KEY', 'PpFEn9QGjnR4Wdb2'); // FedEx Developer Test Key
    @define('MODULE_SHIPPING_FEDEX_WEB_SERVICES_PWD', 'u4hXPKKcpKBw9RQ4n1hBvsJAH'); //FedEx Developer Password

    3. includes/wsdl/RateService_v9.wsdl
    Go to end of the file and find the Below section
    <service name="RateService">
    <port name="RateServicePort" binding="ns:RateServiceSoapBinding">
    <s1:address location="https://gateway.fedex.com/web-services/"/>
    </port>
    </service>
    In this, replace "<s1:address location="https://gateway.fedex.com/web-services/"/>" with the test FedEx service URL "<s1:address location="https://gatewaybeta.fedex.com/web-services/"/>"

    That's it... You are ready to test the FedEx webservices online on your store.

    Does anyone know how to install the FedEx shipping module.
    I get stuck on the first step.I don't have this tpl_footer.php file stored within this location, however, I found this file stored in /zen-cart/includes/templates/theme514/common. Is this the same file?
    When I checked this file to replace the code with the code specified in the first step, it isn't there.
    Also, does this fedex shipping module calculate delivery costs for UK addresses??


    SETUP INSTRUCTIONS:
    ===================
    1. In includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/tpl_footer.php:
    replace:

    <!--bof- site copyright display -->
    <div id="siteinfoLegal" class="legalCopyright"><?php echo FOOTER_TEXT_BODY; ?></div>
    <!--eof- site copyright display -->

    with:

    <!--bof- site copyright display -->
    <div id="siteinfoLegal" class="legalCopyright"><?php echo FOOTER_TEXT_BODY; ?>
    <?php if ($_GET['main_page'] == 'checkout_shipping' || $_GET['main_page'] == 'checkout') { ?>
    <br />
    <center>FedEx service marks used by permission.</center>
    <?php } ?>
    </div>
    <!--eof- site copyright display --
