FedEx module not using weight from Config/Shipping

10:1 is adding 10% of the weight + 1lb

I understand that, BUT it is not working. As the reason for this thread. It's trying to get FedEx ground rates at .03 lbs and returning an error.

Here, stick this item in your cart and go to the shipping estimator. As you will see Express Rates, but NO Ground rates.

I tried an item that weighs .16 lbs and it will retrieve FedEx ground rates.

Add this .04 item the the cart with the above and it works just fine??? Still shows the actual weights of the items, not shipping weight.

Edit the code for:
/includes/modules/shipping/fedexground.php

and around line 117, change the code to:

        if ($this->packageType == '01' && $shipping_weight < 1) {
          $this->_setWeight(1);
        } else {
//          $this->_setWeight(round($_SESSION['cart']->show_weight(),9));
          $this->_setWeight($shipping_weight);
        }

Does that make it work for you now on the .03lbs regardless of what you use for the Tare Rate?

THANKS Linda

That is bringing back a rate now and the price looks adequate.

Looking at the code, shouldn't it have been setting the weight at 1 lb anyway? Oh well, thanks for the workaround, that'll keep the customers happy(er).

The results of:
$_SESSION['cart']->show_weight()

is the weight without the Tare Rate ... so that is .03 ...
