    Default USPS - Invalid Pounds

    I Apologize if someone else has posted this but I couldn't find it here or the WIKI so here it is:

    I have the module set up to offer UPS and USPS. We only have a few items that are all about a pound. When testing sending a 1.4 pound item to the UK, I get the following error from USPS

    -2147219078 - Invalid Pounds.

    The UPS module shows the correct weight and gives me the shipping rates.

    (This is still in testing mode but it is connecting.)

    Anyone had this or have an idea?

    What is the ship from and ship to address that you are using?

    Are you on Live or Test server? Switch to Live if on Test server ...

    Make sure you have called USPS and activated your account after you recieved your login ...

    Brea, CA to Hamptshire, UK We are on the test server but shouldn't this work? I ahve the API code from them and it is active according to USPS. I will talk to them about switching to the production server. Thanks for the info.

    Okay, had them switch me to their production server and it worked like a champ. So much for using their test servers to test anything. Thanks again.
