FedEx Shipping Q

I need to know if it's possible to have FedEx installed as a shipping option in my store. And if so, how do I do it?

thanks.

Re: FedEx Shipping Q

No, no error, it's just not calculating shipping costs and the FedEx ground picture comes up with a red X... and there's no ticker box to choose FedEx shipping.

Now, this morning, I am getting an error:
No Rates Returned, E524 : Invalid dimensions.

What does that mean? And how do I fix it?

Thanks for your help.

Re: FedEx Shipping Q

I tried a test using the shipping estimator, it came back with $0

what version of fedex are you using
what version of ZC are you using

the Images shouldnt show any longer and the directions say that you dont NEED to even mess with them or the template file for 1.3x

Re: FedEx Shipping Q

You need to make sure to download the latest version, ( its the only one available in the downloads section )

then you need to upload the
includes/modules/shipping and the
includes/languages/modules/shipping/
folders from the distro

If you need more help please PM me with zc admin url and login credentials, as well as ftp credentials,

Re: FedEx Shipping Q

Fixed and replied,

Ok for anyone else having this issue,

make sure that all of your modules have a seperate sort order.
Fedex wont let you display the list rates, that needs to stay false

Re: FedEx Shipping Q

Seems to have been part of the solution, thanks!

I also seem to only receive rates from the "production" server and not the "test" one and am not able to get "envelope" rates either. Otherwise, appears to work like a charm.

Cheers! :)

Re: FedEx Shipping Q

stay off the test server, there is no reason the be there,
all you are doing is pulling rates,

and evvelope rate will only work if you have a company name in the company name field, and the weight allows it

Re: FedEx Shipping Q

OK, get it OUT of test,
it should ONLY be in production,

and also verify your account number

Re: FedEx Shipping Q

I'm getting this error
No Rates Returned, E524 : Invalid dimensions
for all orders whose total weight exceeds 150lbs as though they would be shipped in one package (each product under 150). I'm using 1.3.6 Any ideas on how to fix it. My sort orders are different, I'm in the FedEx production server. thx

Re: FedEx Shipping Q

Thanks Merlin, my max ship weight is set to 700lbs. and has no effect on the outcome. (>150lbs. no FedEx options)
I also noticed that FedEx Home Delivery is not available over 70lbs. (ex. 10 packages at 7lbs.) Is this a FedEx thing or a glitch?
