    Default Austpost Error when trying to estimate shipping cost

    I've just loaded the new austpost module and keep getting an error when it calculates shipping...I keep getting this error...

    Warning: file(): URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /home/.charmer/mincke/mincke.com.au/includes/modules/shipping/auspost.php on line 84

    Warning: file(http://drc.edeliver.com.au/ratecalc....0&Quantity=1): failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /home/.charmer/mincke/mincke.com.au/includes/modules/shipping/auspost.php on line 84

    Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/.charmer/mincke/mincke.com.au/includes/modules/shipping/auspost.php on line 85

    Can anyone help? I'm a newbie at this

    If you want to try it on the website, select one of the jewellery pieces as they have the weights on them for shipping estimation.

    Thanks!

    You should report this to your hosting company and ask them to change this restriction for your site.

    If they can't, then you may need to rewrite the module, or find a different host...

    i think it might be because I am using PHP 5?

    Would that be it?

    I checked the auspost drc link and it says that the drc works with PHP 3 or 4 and Coldfusion 4 only.

    Only if the PHP5 configuration has the indicated feature disabled in it ... your host would have to confirm.

    Yes, my host has disabled it but I'm not sure how I change it with the instructions (ie which file do I change and where?)

    The url for the is http://wiki.dreamhost.com/index.php/Allow_url_fopen

    Is it easy to do?

    Hi Cath,

    I don't know if you have access to the php.ini file, or permission to change it, but i ran into this issue on a recent install.

    First, I uploaded a phpinfo.php file to the root folder of my website.
    This is simply a pure text file with the following code in it:
    Code:
    <?php
    phpinfo();
    ?>
    Then, in the browser, I typed in:
    http://www.mycoolsite.com/phpinfo.php

    ...where mycoolsite is the name of my website. That returned the php setting for my site. Under the Configuration PHP Core section I found:

    allow_url_fopen Off Off

    I have a php.ini file in my root folder, in which I included the following entry:
    allow_url_fopen = on

    Now the settings are
    allow_url_fopen On On

    Works a treat now.

    Cheers,
    Robyn
