ozpost shipping module

[jld]

Hi Rod,

I have upgraded to the most recent of Ozpost and I am sort of working but still have a few questions please.

When I go to Modules/shipping I get the following error showing at the top of the box showing choices

Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in /var/www/sites/horsemansshop/horsemansshop.com.au/subdomains/www/html/shop/includes/modules/shipping/ozpost.php on line 713

Also despite updating the module the top of the Admin Home screen shows "Ozpost module upgrade available V2.0.6"

on the web page for customers selecting postage no icons are showing

Can you give me any ideas please?

Hi Rod,

I can't really determine from this error message WHICH of these settings is causing your problem, the "safe_mode" setting or "an open_basedir is set"

I think the easiest fix would be to edit the ozpost.php code, line 713 by commenting out (or deleting) that particular line of code. This line of code MAY be needed in the future, but is currently superflious.

Also despite updating the module the top of the Admin Home screen shows "Ozpost module upgrade available V2.0.6"

V2.0.6 has been placed into the downloads area, but it hasn't been made live yet. I have posted links to a temporary download site in other forum posts. I think it was http://vcsweb.com/rod/ozpost.php_v2.0.1.zip

Upgrading from 2.0.5 to 2.0.6 is just a matter of replacing the main ozpost.php file (not need to re-install all the files).

on the web page for customers selecting postage no icons are showing

Did the icon files get uploaded correctly to the right place? Have you tried any of the other icons types (this module contains 3 complete sets of icons, selectable by filetype. (jpg, gif or png) with the additional option of no icons at all (text only).

Hopefully this will help solve your problem(s).

Cheers

Ok, I have read 2/3s of this thread! I can't find out where to locate teh franchise code for Melbourne for Fastway. I have tried several tests adn can't seem to get it, how many versions of Melbourne are there, or is Melbourne split in to different areas? Does anyone have a list?

Thanks

Is the 3kg xl satchel express post different to a plain 3kg satchel, as it is coming up with the 3kg xl at $20.99, when it could fit into a normal. In fact there is no 3kg parcel post satchel either. (image for 3kg XL is also gone???lol) The debug info is

Is the 3kg xl satchel express post different to a plain 3kg satchel,

Yes. It is larger (and not available at all postal outlets, which is why this has its own enable/disable setting).

as it is coming up with the 3kg xl at $20.99, when it could fit into a normal

The module obviously thinks different . What parcel dimensions did you use?

. In fact there is no 3kg parcel post satchel either.

Whatever your item, it is clearly too large for the regular 3kg Satchel but small enough for the larger XL satchel.

(image for 3kg XL is also gone???lol)

I'll not comment much on this either.... with over 40 different shipping methods and more than 100 icons I wouldn't be at all surprised if I've missed one or two.

The debug info is
<snip>

Perhaps it is best if I simply give you the various cutoff dimensions, that way you'll be in a better position to know what should fit into any given satchel. These things often quite as large as they appear.

// Constants (max limits)
$MAXWEIGHT_5S = 500 ; // 500 gm Satchel
$MAXLENGTH_5S = 320 ; // 500 gm Satchel
$MAXGIRTH_5S = 430 ; // 500 gm Satchel

$MAXWEIGHT_3S = 3000 ; //3Kg Satchel
$MAXLENGTH_3S = 370 ; // 3Kg Satchel (40x30)
$MAXGIRTH_3S = 600 ; // 3Kg Satchel

$MAXWEIGHT_3SXL = 3000; // 3Kg XL Satchel
$MAXLENGTH_3SXL = 500 ; // 3Kg XL Satchel (56x47)
$MAXGIRTH_3SXL = 900 ; // 3Kg XL Satchel

$MAXWEIGHT_5KS = 5000 ; //5Kg Satchel
$MAXLENGTH_5KS = 500 ; // 5Kg Satchel (56x47)
$MAXGIRTH_5KS = 900 ; // 5Kg Satchel


$MAXWEIGHT_3FW = 3000; // 3Kg Fastway Satchel
$MAXLENGTH_3FW = 400 ; // 3Kg Fastway Satchel (400x320)
$MAXGIRTH_3FW = 640 ; // 3Kg Fastway Satchel

$MAXWEIGHT_5FW = 5000 ; //5Kg Fastway Satchel
$MAXLENGTH_5FW = 455 ; // 5Kg Fastway Satchel (455x415)
$MAXGIRTH_5FW = 830 ; // 5Kg Fastway Satchel

Please note that the module uses Length & Girth rather than Lengh/width because this takes care of the narrowing width as the height is increased.

# Girth = ( width + height ) * 2

Hi Rod,

Everything is now working with the exception of the icons. I still get placeholders no matter what type of icon I select and this doesnt change even if I say no icons.

Any ideas?

Only one. Refresh your cache and/or restart your browser. Your icons are showing just fine for me.

IMPORTANT NOTICE. ozpost v1.0.2 has a bug that is affecting a number of users/installations (but not all).

If you have been having problems obtaining shipping quotes from around 4th June 2010 there are two solutions.

1. Upgrade to the latest ozpost module (currently v2.0.6)

2. Make the following changes to the file /includes/modules/shipping/ozpost.php

Line 338 (or thereabouts) reads // Server query string // (or similar)

Immediately after this insert the following line:

$HOST= str_replace(" ", "+", $HOST) ;

Then change the line after from:

$qu = $this->_getAPdata($SERVER, "/postage.php?fromcode=" . MODULE_SHIPPING_OZPOST_SPCODE ."&destcode=$dcode&weight=$parcelweight&height=$parcelheight&width=$parcelwidth& length=$parcellength&value=$ordervalue&flags=$flags&$method=$method&host=$HOST&v ersion=$VERSION") ;

To:

$qu = $this->_getAPdata($SERVER, "/postage.php?fromcode=" . MODULE_SHIPPING_OZPOST_SPCODE ."&destcode=$dcode&weight=$parcelweight&height=$parcelheight&width=$parcelwidth& length=$parcellength&value=$ordervalue&flags=$flags &host=$HOST&version=$VERSION") ;

(Specifically, you will be deleting "&$method=$method" from the line). Not only is '$method' not used/required here, but it is syntaxually incorrect).

Resave the file, and all should work again.

To the best of my knowledge no other versions are affected.

Cheers

Hi Rod, went with option 2 and changed the file, but unfortunately, no change..

Still not getting any rates.

I'll have a look at option 1 later and report back..
