Blank screen with Fedex Web Services

I uploaded the newest version of Fedex Web Services to my website. I checked with Hostmonster to ensure that php was compiled with SOAP over SSL. When I tried a dummy order, the shipping page was blank. When I turned off the Fedex module in Admin, the shipping page appeared. Any ideas?

Re: Blank screen with Fedex Web Services

No errors in the log that I see. Is there something wrong with my settings? (abbreviated):

First line of address: xx xxxx xxxx
Second line of address:

I don't know if it makes a difference with the settings but we are a licensed winery.

Re: Blank screen with Fedex Web Services

Pazdar, I am getting a similar issue after upgrading to zencart v1.5.5a. With Fedex enabled, checkout screen is blank. Did you ever find a solution?

Re: Blank screen with Fedex Web Services

I doubt a solution for 1.5.2 would work with 1.5.5a. Have you removed and reinstalled the mod? Do you have any error files in the log folder? Can you PUHLEASE answer the posting tips? The more we know the more we can help.

Re: Blank screen with Fedex Web Services

I notice that your "Fedex meter #" is blank.
Could this be a problem? I don't know. The plugin author has no support thread for this plugin (that I've found).

Is this the version you are using? https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1784
Installation instructions for the version updated June 8, 2016 below. See note #4

Installation

  1. Ensure that PHP is compiled with SOAP over SSL. Once enabled, you will be able to find "SOAP" in ADMIN > VERSION. Speak to your hosting company if unsure.
  1. Upload all files in this package while maintaining the directory structure
  1. Go to ADMIN > MODULES > SHIPPING > FEDEX WEB SERVICES and configure the module (see tips section)
  1. When adding a meter number, ensure that the meter number has been generated for the Web Services API by requesting a production account at http://www.fedex.com/us/developer/ (Note: meter numbers from the old API will not be valid).

Re: Blank screen with Fedex Web Services

A common cause of this kind of problem is if/when people make a backup of the files in the same directory as the ori6nial file, but keeping the same file extension.
Example
/modules/shipping/myshipper_bak.php vs /modules/shipping/myshipper.php_bak

The 1st example will result In a blank page, the second will work fine.
