    Default USPS shipping module working for USA , but UK customers cannot get a shipping quote

    I have not received one order in the two weeks ive had this shipper module on my website, and i have been wondering if it was working correctly. 50% of my customers are from Europe and Australia. I just received an email from a customer in the UK and they claimed the site would not let them purchase due to no shipping could be determined- Here is what it says at checkout



    "We are unable to find a USPS shipping quote suitable for your mailing address and the shipping methods we typically use.
    If you prefer to use USPS as your shipping method, please contact us for assistance.
    (Please check that your Zip Code is entered correctly.)"


    So i lost the sale, but at least they told me about it!!

    How can this be fixed?

    Default Re: USPS shipping module working for USA , but UK customers cannot get a shipping quo

    I did all the steps. uninstalled the current version and reinstalled the newest one. and still No international shipping options. I was asked for my USPS settings. They are:
    Enable USPS Shipping
    True

    Enter the USPS Web Tools User ID
    XXXXXXXXX

    Which server to use
    production

    Handling Fee
    0

    Handling Per Order or Per Box
    Box

    Tax Class
    --none--

    Tax Basis
    Shipping

    Shipping Zone
    --none--

    Sort Order
    0

    All Packages are Machinable
    False

    USPS Options
    Display weight, Display transit time

    Domestic Shipping Methods
    EXPRESS, PRIORITY, FIRST CLASS, PARCEL

    International Shipping Methods
    Global Express, Express Mail Int, Priority Mail International, First Class Mail Int Package

    Debug Mode
    Off

    But when i was asked to check the version on my server it says this:
    @version $Id: usps.php 4867 2006-10-31 09:59:01Z drbyte $

    @version $Id: usps.php 15881 2010-04-11 16:32:39Z wilt $

    So its obviously not recognizing the latest modules. What am I missing?

    Apparently the FTP upload you did didn't successfully save the new files to your server.
    Perhaps your FTP program didn't prompt you to overwrite the existing files? Or it did and you didn't say yes? Or it ran into a permissions problem and failed?

    Use your FTP program to navigate to each of the two existing usps.php files on your server, and for each one replace it with the corresponding correct new file that you have unzipped on your PC. Remember that the one under the languages folder structure is specifically for the language content, and the other one is not. Don't mix them up. That's why the zip has them in different directory/folders when you unzip them.
