Shipping Issue - Express Only

[bunyip]

There have been updates to the USPS shipping module since the one you are using (which appears to be for zen cart v1.3.7). While a full site upgrade might not be what you want to do at the moment, I'd certainly recommend it.

At the very least, you could replace your current USPS module with the one in the lates zencart installation package.

Otherwise, try this for a solution to your immediate problem:
replace this section of code in your module:

$this->types = array('Express' => 'Express Mail',
'First Class' => 'First-Class Mail',
'Priority' => 'Priority Mail',
'Parcel' => 'Parcel Post',
'Media' => 'Media Mail',
'BPM' => 'Bound Printed Material',
'Library' => 'Library'
); 

with this:

    $this->types = array('EXPRESS' => 'Express Mail',
        'FIRST CLASS' => 'First-Class Mail',
        'PRIORITY' => 'Priority Mail',
        'PARCEL' => 'Parcel Post',
        'MEDIA' => 'Media Mail',
        'BPM' => 'Bound Printed Material',
        'LIBRARY' => 'Library'
        );

Alrighty, did that - and now it's not estimating shipping at all and I'm getting this message:

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.)

I uninstalled and reinstalled the USPS module.

ok, one more replacement to make:
replace this code:

$db->Execute("insert into " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, set_function, date_added) values ('Domestic Shipping Methods', 'MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TYPES', 'Express, Priority, First Class, Parcel, Media, BPM, Library', 'Select the domestic services to be offered:', '6', '14', 'zen_cfg_select_multioption(array(\'Express\', \'Priority\', \'First Class\', \'Parcel\', \'Media\', \'BPM\', \'Library\'), ', now())"); 

with this

    $db->Execute("insert into " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, set_function, date_added) values ('Domestic Shipping Methods', 'MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TYPES', 'EXPRESS, PRIORITY, FIRST CLASS, PARCEL, MEDIA, BPM, LIBRARY', 'Select the domestic services to be offered:', '6', '14', 'zen_cfg_select_multioption(array(\'EXPRESS\', \'PRIORITY\', \'FIRST CLASS\', \'PARCEL\', \'MEDIA\', \'BPM\', \'LIBRARY\'), ',  now())"); 

You will need to remove/re-install the module after you upload the modified file.

It would be faster just to use the updated version of the file: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=97461

And, I'll mention this for good measure: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/announcement.php?f=&a=14

Okay, changed the php code and when uninstalled - when I went to reinstall, got this message:

1062 Duplicate entry 'MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TYPES' for key 2
in:
[insert into configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, set_function, date_added) values ('Domestic Shipping Methods', 'MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_TYPES', 'EXPRESS, PRIORITY, FIRST CLASS, PARCEL, MEDIA, BPM, LIBRARY', 'Select the domestic services to be offered:', '6', '14', 'zen_cfg_select_multioption(array(\'EXPRESS\', \'PRIORITY\', \'FIRST CLASS\', \'PARCEL\', \'MEDIA\', \'BPM\', \'LIBRARY\'), ', now())]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.


So I double checked to make sure I deleted the original PHP code, and I had. I'll check out the links dr. byte provided, and try that.

Hmmm...even going back and trying to put my original code isn't working. Geesh, I feel like a doofus. If I copy the current code that I have, do you think you could tell me where I have the duplicate?

Something you've done has broken the normal operation of things.
Now you've got to do some ugly cleanup.

Start with this:

a) Admin->Tools->Install SQL Patches
b) Paste the following into the text field and click Send:

delete from configuration where configuration_key like 'MODULE\_SHIPPING\_USPS%';

c) Then go back to Admin->Modules->Shipping and click Install again.
