Rod, I have no idea what transpired but when I re-checked the template-override directory, the shipping-estimator file has now been updated.
Does the distribution file that will be available in the Plugins list the file-related changes that are made? I keep a copy of all the site's files locally and I really don't want to have to go through directory-by-directory to find out what files have been changed in the update.:blink:
Yes and no.Quote:

No, there isn't a file that details what changes have been made to any of the files listed.
With almost all of the ozpost updates, the only changes have been to the 'main' ozpost.php file.Quote:

Another question: Shipping weights.
I've got a product that is defined with a weight of 0. The ozPost Weight factor is kilos, the "Tare Weight" is 500:+90,1000:20,2000:15,10000:+2000. the "Action on 0 Weight" is default, the default weight is 2900.
When I estimate shipping, the weight of the product is shown as 4.9kg. Where did that number come from?
0kg or 0gm, its all the same :-)Quote:

Enabling the debug should indicate the tare weight being applied, as well as whether its a fixed amount or a percentage, so it shouldn't be hard to verify this suspicion.

Rod, I've copied and pasted the debug-information HTML, confirming your suspicions regarding the tare weight:
Code:Weight 2900g Items 1 Weight 4900g
Dimensions 29 x 25 x 2.5 29 x 25 x 2.5
Cube / Weight 1812.5cc / 0.453125kg 1812.5cc / 0.453125kg
Calculated: Length=29.20cm, Width=25.20cm, Height=2.70cm, Weight=4900g, NumBoxes=1
Using a tare weight of +2000gms

With the "Tare Weight" Setting of 500:+90,1000:20,2000:15,10000:+2000
Parcels up to 500gm have 90gm added
Parcels 501gm - 1000gm have 20% added
Parcels 1001gm - 2000gm have 15% added
Parcels 2001gm - 10000gm (and over) have 2000gm added
So with your zero weight product, using the default weight of 2.9kg plus 2kg tare = 4.9kg

Thanks, RodG, for doing the math! I was being lazy ...
Hi Rod
This may be a bit convulouted, but i am trying to give all info I can to hopefully see if you can spot where I have gone wrong
We have just moved servers (to iinet hosting) and ozpost dropped dead taking out the cart page and the admin shipping modules page so i couldn't disable it
What i have done
I used the highly unscientific method of deleting one by one the shipping module files out of /includes/modules/shipping as soon as i deleted the ozpost one the admin shipping modules page appeared again (obviously sans ozpost),
I then tried uploading a fresh set of ozpost files (both module and language) matching the version(3.5.2?) that was already there. the admin/modules/shipping page broke again.
I deleted these and uploaded the latest version (3.6.5) files of ozpost, and eureka the admin page worked however the cart kept hanging and not working.
so next through the /admin/modules/shipping page I did an uninstall reinstall (making sure the settings were saved) and now it is working in the cart
However in admin if I click the "test ozpost server" I just end up with a broken /admin/modules/shipping page, no info is returned from the ozpost server
/admin/modules.php?set=shipping&module=ozpost&action=test
How would i test to see what is going on
Should add, this is something to do with my server as i tested in another clients zencart (they also use ozpost) and the ": Click here to test the ozpost Servers" worked perfectly on their site, I guess i have to work out if it is something in my admin that is blocking it or something else
I've no idea why this would have happened. A bad file copy perhaps?Quote:

Are there any error messages during the uninstall/reinstall process?
What is the name of the store (so I can check the server logs for any clues).
