Attribute weight and zone shipping

I will be converting from price-based shipping to weight-based shipping. I have a test cart, 1.3.7 (all bugs patched), that I'm using to test this.

I added fictitious weights to attributes. When I add 2 of the same attribute to the cart, the shipping charge goes up to the next price in the table.

I also have both tares set to 0:0.

Sample product (they're just fictitious weight for testing purposes):
http://www.ktnaturals.com/testshop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=13&products_id=33

Change the size to Sample Jar, and add 2 to cart. Shipping should be $2.50, not $5.

My Zone shipping module (I also have freeoptions and freeshipper installed if that makes a difference):

Enable Zones Method
True

Calculation Method
Weight

Tax Class
Taxable Goods

Tax Basis
Shipping

Sort Order
10

Skip Countries, use a comma separated list of the two character ISO country codes

Zone 1 Countries
US,CA

Zone 1 Shipping Table
2:2.50,10:5.00,15:7.00,20:6.00,10000:10.00

Zone 1 Handling Fee
0

Zone 2 Countries
00

Zone 2 Shipping Table
3:8.50,7:10.50,99:20.00

Zone 2 Handling Fee
0

Zone 3 Countries

Zone 3 Shipping Table
3:8.50,7:10.50,99:20.00

Zone 3 Handling Fee
0

I tried uninstalling all the shipping mod and reinstalling them to no avail. What am I doing wrong?

ETA: The product is set to "priced by attributes," and the weight is 0.

Re: Attribute weight and zone shipping

Clarification: It doesn't matter if I add 2 sample jars, or 1 full-size jar and 1 sample jar. The weight is calculated correctly, but not the shipping price.

Re: Attribute weight and zone shipping

I did more testing on another 1.3.7.1 cart with no mods, and this is still happening. I don't remember seeing anything on 1.3.8a release news that there was a fix for this.

And it also happens if I use a table rate. :dontgetit

Re: Attribute weight and zone shipping

I forget if it is v1.3.7 or v1.3.7.1 where there are shipping issues on Zones ...

v1.3.8a is the most desirable version right now:

There is a list of any fixes for v1.3.8a at:

Re: Attribute weight and zone shipping

Thanks for responding. So you were not able to replicate it in 1.3.8a? Then I'll go ahead and upgrade soon. I've been putting it off to let the bugs get worked out first. :smile:
