Unable to select an action in Shipping Module

[MarleneF]

I'm using v1.3.9e
Have not installed any addons that I can remember.
The site is hosted at Dreamhost

I wanted to make some changes to the shipping module, but it looks as if I no longer have access.

I'm attaching a screen print of the SHIPPING MODULES page. If I click on an icon ("i" or arrow) in the "Action" column - nothing happens.

This is probably something really stupid - but I can't help myself. What am I missing?

It looks like you have a problem with a file or files in the:
/includes/modules/shipping

or in the:
/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping

Look in the:
/cache

and see what debug logs you have in there ...

[MarleneF]

Oh yeah! There's a lot of debug files... but have no clue how to open them and probably wouldn't know what they said if I could. Any suggestions?

(FTP listing attached)

[Ajeh]

Go to the Modules ... Shipping ... then in your FTP program look at the /cache directory and refresh the screen and look at the newest file ...

NOTE: the other files should also be checked and the errors corrected ...

[MarleneF]

Followed your instructions... here is what the latest file says:
[23-Jun-2011 18:46:47] PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function in_cart_check() on a non-object in /home/weedmat/waterweedmat.com/ZenCart/includes/modules/shipping/ups.php on line 469

Copied from the UPS.php file, here are lines 466 through 475:
}
467 // bof: add Rake charge
468 $chk_rakes = 0;
469 $chk_rakes = $_SESSION['cart']->in_cart_check('products_id', '27');
470 $chk_rakes = $chk_rakes * 14.95;
$methods[] = array('id' => $type,
'title' => $title,
'cost' => ($cost * $shipping_num_boxes) + (MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING_METHOD == 'Box' ? MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING * $shipping_num_boxes : MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING + $chk_rakes) );
// eof: add Rake charge
?>

The line starting with //bof: (Line 467) is the code you gave me to put in that file.

Guess I should edit or remove that code. What do you think?

[Ajeh]

The code change to count for 1 particular Product and add to the charge is the code changes shown in RED where the products_id is 27 and add $14.95 to the charges ...

          $cost = preg_replace('/[^0-9.]/', '',  $cost);


// bof: add Rake charge
$chk_rakes = 0;
$chk_rakes = $_SESSION['cart']->in_cart_check('products_id', '27');
$chk_rakes = $chk_rakes * 14.95;

          $methods[] = array('id' => $type,
                             'title' => $title,
                             'cost' => ($cost * $shipping_num_boxes) + (MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING_METHOD == 'Box' ? MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING * $shipping_num_boxes : MODULE_SHIPPING_USPS_HANDLING) + $chk_rakes );
// eof: add Rake charge

If you are getting errors, first take out the changes and make sure the usps shipping module is working and that no more debug logs are created when you go to the Modules ... Shipping ...

Next, check for the products_id of the Product you want to add the extra charge ...

Here's what I did:

Took the code you gave me back out of the UPS.php file and re-uploaded.

Went to Modules / Shipping in ZenCart and I was able to interact with the window (make edits, etc.) Looked good... no error logs in the cache.

Got the product ID for the Rake (#190) from Product/Categories/Products - and replaced the '27' with '190' in the lines you gave me - and reinserted them into the UPS.php and re-uploaded.

Not only can I not interact with the Shipping Tables under Modules, if I buy ANY product on the website, it does NOT ADD shipping or taxes to the item - not to the Rake and not to any other item.

Here is the updated Error Log from the cache (more recent - includes code for the rake with correct item number):

[24-Jun-2011 07:34:47] PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function in_cart_check() on a non-object in /home/weedmat/waterweedmat.com/ZenCart/includes/modules/shipping/ups.php on line 469

Ajeh, I know I'm a pain in the neck because I am not familiar with PHP and am not a programmer, but I appreciate your help. When you send me instructions, it would really help me understand if you would finish your sentences (connect the dots) because I'm a real idiot when it comes to this stuff. I am happy and willing to compensate for your time as much as I am able. Thanks for your help.

First, add below the line:

// bof: add Rake charge

global $cart;

Next, this code is for the USPS shipping module so be sure you adapted the code for:

        $methods[] = array('id' => $type,
                           'title' => $this->types[$type],
                           'cost' => ($cost * $shipping_num_boxes) + (MODULE_SHIPPING_UPS_HANDLING_METHOD == 'Box' ? MODULE_SHIPPING_UPS_HANDLING * $shipping_num_boxes : MODULE_SHIPPING_UPS_HANDLING)  + $chk_rakes);

NOTE: slight edit to last post on position of:
+ $chk_rakes

[MarleneF]

Added/edited USP.php (LOL!.. not USPS that you keep calling it).
as follows:
}
if (empty($returnval)) $returnval = $errorret;

return $returnval;
}
}

******** beginning of edit **************

Line 467: // bof: add Rake charge
Line 468: global $cart;
Line 469:
Line 470:
Line 471: $chk_rakes = 0;
Line 472: $chk_rakes = $_SESSION['cart']->in_cart_check('products_id', '190');
$chk_rakes = $chk_rakes * 14.95;
$methods[] = array('id' => $type,
'title' => $this->types[$type],
'cost' => ($cost * $shipping_num_boxes) + (MODULE_SHIPPING_UPS_HANDLING_METHOD == 'Box' ? MODULE_SHIPPING_UPS_HANDLING * $shipping_num_boxes : MODULE_SHIPPING_UPS_HANDLING) + $chk_rakes);
// eof: add Rake charge

re-uploaded - refreshed - Shipping Module still not interactive.

Back to FTP to open new error log... here's the error:

[24-Jun-2011 08:43:54] PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function in_cart_check() on a non-object in /home/weedmat/waterweedmat.com/ZenCart/includes/modules/shipping/ups.php on line 472

[Ajeh]

In a clean copy of ups.php ... search for the line of code:

$cost = preg_replace('/[^0-9.]/', '',  $cost);

This code goes where that code is and the BLACK code already exists ...

The RED code is the NEW code to add ...

I think you are putting this in the wrong place ...
