I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this but I'm having trouble with the new update as well. I downloaded it and followed all the directions and it's still not working properly, I don't know what else to do. Is there something I'm missing? USPS used to work for me for a year now and all of a sudden it stopped working, now I know it's an updated that I needed. I'm still running 1.3.7 btw. Thanks for any help!
My partner was not understanding that there was an option to be on a 'test' server or a 'production' server and actually still does not understand.. but I asked for the account information and usps contact information and called them and they said that we were still on the test server.. so I asked them to move us over. The did.. and now everything is working like a dandy.
Thanks for all the help.
I compared what this person did to what I had on my store. They detailed step by step what they did and how they filled in the form on the USPS module. The part I missed was under shipping zone to select none. Once I did that it all worked.

Here is the part that helped me- the details under #3.
I am using,
ZenCart version: 1.3.0
MySQL version: 4.1.12
PHP version: 4.3.11
Apache version: 2.0.54 (Unix)
I followed the instructions on this forum.
I did the following:
---------
1) I got the User ID from https://secure.shippingapis.com/registration/
I installed the USPS module from ZenCart Admin page, and tested in Test mode, but the module did not work. I searched this forum and found this thread. One of the suggestion was to use the production server instead of the test server.
2) I called them at 1-800-344-7779 and activated our account to access their production server.
3) I logged on to our ZenCart admin page and configured the USPS shipping module as follows:
Enable USPS Shipping: True
Enter the USPS User ID: (our ID)
Enter the USPS Password: (our ID)
Which Server to use: Production
Handling Fee: 0
Tax Class: --none--
Tax Basis: Shipping
Shipping Zone: --none--
Sort Order: 0
Packages 35lbs or more....: False
USPS Options: all checked
Domestic Shipping Methods: all checked
Int'l Shipping Methods: all checked
4) I set up my Zip code in the [Configuration]->[Shipping/Handling] to be 5 digit Zip Code.
Thanks for the update that the Zone setting was blocking your shipping method from working correctly ...![]()
