USPS January 17 2016 K8 - Support Quirks

[BuddyS]

I have two websites and I can;t get the USPS module to work. I have been working on it for 14 days now. I have everything inputed correct - BUT - I can;t get any quotes for either site, I have two different ids one for each store, Any ideas?

Does the USPS changes implemented last weekend have any "known" changes in USPS services or classes that need to be made?

[Ajeh]

The changes were for price and have not affected the USPS module itself ...

[RixStix]

TNX, Linda. Just wanted to make sure that I didn't miss something other than the obvious increase in rates printed on Monday morning.

[Ajeh]

You are most welcome

It looks like the $400 requirement preventing International Small Flatrate boxes or envelopes from being used has been removed during later 2016 USPS change.

I don't trust my skills to make edits though the edits may be as simple as a couple of keystrokes.

Items Valued Over $400

Currently, mailers may not use Priority Mail International Flat Rate Envelopes and Small Flat Rate Priced Boxes for items valued over $400. With the change to the air-parcel stream, this restriction will no longer apply, and mailers may mail items valued over $400 by all forms of Priority Mail International service, subject to individual country limitations.

um, okay so this is a weird one. I'm getting this message:
-2147221202 - The element 'RateV4Request' has incomplete content. List of possible elements expected: 'RateClientType, Package'.

using the most recent USPS version on the same hosting as another cart which is working fine. I did upgrade this cart from 1.5.4 to 1.55f and I think it was working before. I can't imagine what could be happening. There are no error log files. I know this error has shown up before so maybe you might have an idea what could be happening specifically on this site.

Is there a USPS plugin update in 155F for minimum shipping cost?

$show_hiddenCost = '';


// bof: force minimum of $7.00
if ($cost < 6.99) {
$cost = 7.00;
}
// eof: force minimum of $7.00

1st Class not working in estimator and Priority minimum is $13. Testing with 0.1LB item.

Thanks.

This will work to ensure all shipping methods both Domestic and International are $7.00 or above ...

On your First-Class issue not working, is this Domestic or International?

[Webskipper]

Thanks for your reply.

Domestic. International is all unchecked.

I just changed decimal settings back to 2, and chose Custom Transit Time Calculation Mode, and only Priority tracking as extra services, The shipping estimator is now showing the minimum of $7.00. Yet no 1st Class

The product that I'm using for testing is 0.1LBS $0.50 IchibanConcepts.com Cultured Net Cups.

Using local Zip codes and 02134 (as if sending it to Zoom). Thanks!
