error codes for shipping_estimator.php

[vanhorn_s]

I recently moved my site to a different host, and I keep getting errors showing up in the cache folder.
redsautorehab.com running zencart 1.5.0 I did not have these errors before the migration.

I have tested the shipping estimator several times, and I can't see anything wrong.
Lines 92-117:

 $order->delivery = array('postcode' => $zip_code,
                               'country' => array('id' => $_POST['zone_country_id'], 'title' => $country_info['countries_name'], 'iso_code_2' => $country_info['countries_iso_code_2'], 'iso_code_3' =>  $country_info['countries_iso_code_3']),

Thank you for that. I understand that it's not a big deal, but it wasn't there before the migration. Now it shows up every time a shipping quote is submitted. I can't figure out how to enable debugging in UPS, but I did enable it for USPS, and this is what I got emailed:

From the link I sent you:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
if you do a Google search for "Creating default object from empty value" you'll find dozens of similar reports for lots of different software, along with various hints/tips as to how to rectify/hide the problem.

It *is* just a 'warning', and as such it won't affect the code functionality in any way,

Looking at this another way, the 'error' will/should only be reported if the PHP log level has been set to ' E_STRICT', which *isn't* recommended for a production site.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[vanhorn_s]

I have not set it to ' E_STRICT' the way I understand it, is that it is the default for 1.5.0
I did read that in your other post. My concern, is that I might have done something wrong in the migration. Stamps.com isn't working either, and I have a feeling that they might be linked.

[vanhorn_s]

I fixed it. I was running php 5.4 I had to roll it back to 5.2 to get rid of these errors, and to get stamps.com integration fixed.

[vanhorn_s]

I fixed it. I was running php 5.4 I had to roll it back to 5.2 to get rid of these errors, and to get stamps.com integration fixed.

I need help fixing this now. My host just sent me an email telling me that php 5.2, and 5.3 will be phased out DEC. 1st.

I will also need to contact stamps.com again, and inform them that they need to make it php 5.4 compatible.

[vanhorn_s]

It looks like the way to eliminate this error, is to edit: includes/modules/shipping_estimator.php

Add to line 46:

 require_once('includes/classes/http_client.php'); // shipping in basket
//PHP5.4 fix
$order = new stdClass();
/*
// moved below and altered to include Tare
  // totals info
  $totalsDisplay = '';

[explorer1979]

I am experience this PHP warning on my ZC 1.5.1

After the ZC 1.5.3 released, I opne the ZC 1.5.3 and ZC 1.5.1 files there
/includes/modules/shipping_estimator.php
with WinMerge to compare side by side

Find the fix is

On Line 88
From
// user not logged in !
Change To
// user not logged in !
require(DIR_WS_CLASSES . 'order.php');
    $order = new order; 

Add the Coding after Line 88

// user not logged in !
require(DIR_WS_CLASSES . 'order.php');
    $order = new order;
