No first class international USPS

Hi,
I've set up the USPS module, but when I tried a test sale to England it didn't offer the first class international package or the International Small Flat Rate box. Any ideas on why that wasn't available? Thanks!

Re: No first class international USPS

What weight are you shipping?

I believe the limit is 4lbs ...

Do you have the current USPS shipping module? It is available from the list of Security Patches and updates:

What are your Configuration ... Shipping/Packaging ... settings?

Re: No first class international USPS

I thought I had put in the update, but apparently not! I updated it with the patch, and it works fine now. Thanks for your quick reply, and sorry for missing that one! The weight, btw, was under 4 lbs (in fact, it was under 1 lb.)

Re: No first class international USPS

Hi,
I have the No first class international USPS problem too. I couldn't find a solution so I reinstalled Zencart with a new up to date install but, used my existing Data Base. Is there a setting somewhere that could fix this or, does it need a patch? This problem came "out of the blue" after using Zencart flawlessly for well over a year.

You'll need the patch mentioned by Ajeh 2 posts above yours.

Re: No first class international USPS

Hi,

Just added the patch and the problem is still there.

I am running Version Zen Cart 1.3.8a reinstalled only a few days ago. It should be up to date.

I am not getting any error message. It is just the First Class International Parcel/package option is not showing on check out.

The problem started about a month ago. On uploading new site changes using a new web editor (Dreamweaver) the Zencart directory got erased. I had a back up and reloaded it. Two problems started. 1) the one mentioned above and 2) new customer logins from outside the USA cannot login to create an account.

I assume that the problems are related.

This problem is still ongoing even with the new installation. I used my existing data base for the new installation. So I assume that in that database there may be a setting that is doing this.

Thanks,

Amedeo

Re: No first class international USPS

First class has to be under a certain weight, right? So, if you've got the default tare settings set to add 3 lbs to your product weight, then First Class won't be applicable.

Re: No first class international USPS

Have you an URL that we could perhaps peek at to see if we can see what might be happening here? :smile:
