Canada Post module

[Royal]

Hello dunedon,

I'm using V1.5.4.

Try a fresh install of canadapost.php and upload it to /includes/modules/shipping

[iCarp]

I am getting the connection timeout error. I have tried the hack with no success. I have tried a fresh install of canadapost.php, a fresh install of the entire mod, and a fresh install of the mod on a fresh install of ZC 1.5.4. Nothing works. Is anyone else having similar problems with Canada Post now?

I used this mod for 6 or 7 years without a problem. Indeed, the CP module with dimensional shipping was the reason why I switched to ZC from another ecommerce package way back when. Implementing zone and table rates would be cumbersome and inaccurate, so I hope that Canada Post hasn't created a permanent problem.

Sorry to hear that the Canada Post module not working for you.

The module is running okay on my end.

I've been going round and round trying to solve this issue for 8 or 9 hours now and I'm starting to feel like an idiot... So I'm reaching out to see if someone can point me in the right direction.

I cannot, for the life of me, figure out what I need to change so that the CP Shipping Module groups all products into one box. Currently, it's returning quotes for each item of the order to be shipped in it's own box, separately.

In my searching, I have found multiple posts from 2008-ish about a "item ships in original box" checkbox when editing or adding a product -- but I'm not able to find this box anywhere, so it makes me wonder if the setting I'm looking for has moved or changed since then? Any help at all is immensely appreciated.

- Zen-Cart v1.5.3 (with the Authorize.Net module from v1.5.4) with the latest version of the CP Module.
- PHP v5.3.29
- MySQL v5.1.55-rel12.6

Hrm... well I guess I found the issue. My 'edit product' page does not show these extra fields -- and in fact, seems to be missing the actual DEFINE text for the various items onscreen. I would say something went awry when I originally installed, I will start the process of a full clean install (not going to be fun, but it seems the only solution at the moment).

Thanks for the help Royal! Saved me a bunch of time trying to debug the issue on my own.

Thanks again for the assistance Royal, after the reinstall everything is running as expected.

Next question. I'm trying to find a solution to make ShipStation work with this plugin and am curious if anyone knows how to access the Box Size that the Canada Post Plugin chooses for the quote? We have 20+ boxes setup in our CP web tool and currently have no idea which box size the shipping quote is for.

The Canada Post plug in seems to have stopped working (again). At checkout I'm getting :

"An unknown error occured with the Canada Post shipping calculations. If you prefer to use Canada Post as your shipping method, please contact the Ravenvision Orchid Supplies via Email."

It means that people cant complete the checkout.

And my store is really slow.

Something similar happened earlier this year, but CP fixed it.

Anybody else experiencing this and/or have a suggestion?

Frustrated,
Max
