Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

Hi I am encountering this same issue...It appears I have the usps.php in the right places. See below.
Searching 730 files ... for: usps.php

/home/reacti9/public_html/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/usps.php

Line #6 : * @version $Id: usps.php 18348G 2013-01-27 01:27:00Z ajeh $

/home/reacti9/public_html/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php

Line #6 : * @version $Id: usps.php 18348G 2013-01-27 01:27:00Z ajeh $

Any suggestions as to why the USPS is still not showing up?

Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

What are your settings on Configuration ... Shipping/Packaging ...

If you go to Modules ... Shipping ... and click on the USPS ... what do you see in the right hand panel?

Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

I do not see USPS in your shipping choices ...

Make sure that you have in these files directories:
/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php
/includes/lanugages/english/modules/shipping/usps.php

If you do, do a search in the Tools ... Developers Tool Kit ... and in the bottom input box enter:
usps.php

and select Catalog and click search ...

What comes up on the filenames and the version id lines?

Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

If you go to Modules ... Shipping ... below all of the shipping modules listed do you see a line like:
Module Directory: /home/reacti9/public_html/includes/modules/shipping/

Or, is it just blank?

If just blank, if you look via FTP at the directory:
/includes/modules/shipping

do you have copies or backup files of usps.php in that directory?

If not, can you check that the file:
/home/reacti9/public_html/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php

is the code file ...

and can you check that the file:
/home/reacti9/public_html/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/usps.php

is the language file with the DEFINE statements in it ...

Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

You need the code file in:
/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php

Check the download again and reload the files to the server in the correct directory ...

Ajeh:

I came across this thread and I am having the same issues. I have uploaded the most recent version of the USPS module but it does not show up in the Module -> Shipping section of the admin area. There is an empty space where it should be, but I can not do anything. See screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/0NruU3sc

I have tried clicking on the empty line and clicking install but nothing happens.

I checked the actual files that are uploaded and they are correct - language file in the appropriate language folder, and code file in the appropriate module folder.

I checked through Tools -> Developers Tool Kit and searched the two usps.php files and they show up correctly:

/var/www/html/store/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping/usps.php
Line #14 : * @version $Id: usps.php 2015-05-31 ajeh Version K7 $

/var/www/html/store/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php
Line #15 : * @version $Id: usps.php 2015-05-31 ajeh Version K7 $

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

Sure...

Zen Cart v1.3.9h/v1.3.9h
Not upgraded
Problem with USPS module
PHP Version: 4.4.7 (Zend: 1.3.0)
Database: MySQL 5.0.67
I'm assuming it's been like this since USPS stopped supporting V3 api

Let me know if you need any of the other items

Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

Based on the old, out dated and no longer supported version of php (this is a *hint*), you need to edit the file:
/includes/modules/shipping/usps.php

and follow the instructions on this line, approximately line 86, in the code:

  function __construct() { // for older php < 5.1.0 change to usps() instead of __construct()

NOTE: you should also then upgrade your Zen Cart version to at least the newest one, but not until you get you php updated ...

Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

Sound like you have a backup file in the directory:
/includes/modules/shipping

in which case you most likely now have a debug log in you /logs (/cache in old out dated versions of Zen Cart, again a *hint* here) ...

Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

How do I get rid of it? I don't see a /cache folder

Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

How do you get rid of what? :lookaroun

As to no /cache that is really needed in v1.3.9, as well as a good idea for other versions, as that is where the debug logs go in v1.3.9 ...

Re: USPS Shipping Module does not show up under Modules/Shipping

What do you have set in:
/includes/configure.php

for the line that contains, at the end of the file:

define('DIR_FS_SQL_CACHE'
