order_total.php problem

[mikey1719]

I am experiencing many errors after upgrading to the latest version. (Something always happens even though I am using the override system). Any way, upon going to the checkout process I get the following four errors:

Warning: order_total(includes/languages/english/modules/order_total/ot_zip_tax.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/oneweew/public_html/oneweecatalog/includes/classes/order_total.php on line 32

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: ot_zip_tax in /home/oneweew/public_html/oneweecatalog/includes/classes/order_total.php on line 36

I checked and the order_total.php file is there with a permission 644. I changed it to 755 thinking it would resolve the problem but it's not.

Any help with this would be GREATLY appreciated.

hmm.... something clicked and I remembered that I installed a California tax module since the cart is in CA. A special sales tax. So I copied the file "ot_zip_tax.php" in all the error directories. No most of the errors have disappeard except for this remaining error:

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: ot_zip_tax in /home/oneweew/public_html/oneweecatalog/includes/classes/order_total.php on line 36

I remember that this was a module a user wrote so I guess I should go back and reinstall it, unless someone knows how to install the class. Anyone?

Ok I reinstalled the module which is called "California Sales Tax Module" and everything works well now. I apologize for giving a reaction to the upgrade which had nothing to do with Zen Cart but everything to do with my stupidity. The upgrade is Great!!

Mikey,

Thanks for posting the process you went through during your upgrade. You may have saved someone else in the same situation.

Mikey,

I would like to second those thanks. Ran into the very same error, having installed the "California Sales Tax Module" in my local development site and then not adding the ot_zip_tax.php files to my live shop after configuration. Simply adding the files did the trick for me. Thanks for the guidance.

Wanted to posit another question as well. Why don't these added files reside within a relevant template folder in their locations? Is this a misfire in the template system design?

Have a good one!
