Urbluffingme Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 (edited) You have to go into your admin and click on configuration, then shipping/ packaging. Then you need to set your postal code to the postal code your products will be shipping from.

Guest Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 (edited) I am getting the same error message.. However all of my zone information and zip codes are in there.. Any other ideas on how to fix it? "Shipping Method This is currently the only shipping method available to use on this order. United Parcel Service An error occured with the UPS shipping calculations. Invalid ShipperPostalCode If you prefer to use UPS as your shipping method, please contact the store owner." Thanks in advance Edited December 21, 2004 by rh1999_20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Zonjee Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 However all of my zone information and zip codes are in thereAnd in upper case? Lower case doesn't work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 And in upper case? Lower case doesn't work... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> In the Admin Under the configuration if I goto zone.. I have a drop down box for the zone.. I pick the state from that.. Now when I goto the shipping/packaging section I have to put in the zip code.. I live in the states so it's all numbers ex:16625 so therefore I'm not sure what your saying about uppercase and lowercase.. Where am I messing up?..lol Thanks again, Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Zonjee Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I'm not sure what your saying about uppercase and lowercase..OK, I assumed that the standard UPS module would also have an input field for state, country, and town (like the UPS XML contribution). There you can make that mistake (I know I did), apparently not in the standard UPS module. I also assume you can't log the request you send to UPS and the reply from the server as with UPS XML? Hard to pinpoint the problem then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I'm guessing my best bet would be to install the UPS XML contribution then.?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Zonjee Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 my best bet would be to install the UPS XML contributionInitially, it takes more time because likely you will have to do some changes in general.php and the database (change a field from varchar(255) to text). But as I understand the standard osC UPS module works with a http request, which is not top security since your user name and password will be sent in clear text (UPS XML uses a https connection). Also I understand that this service of getting rates from the UPS server would be terminated one day. Another advantage of the UPS XML is supposedly more accurate quoting since certain delivery charges are included in this one and not in the standard UPS module. That's at least what I have read on the forums and in the docs ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Thanks for your help. I am going to keep trying to see what is going on.. I am very new to php and oscommerce.. so I am getting this going slowly.. We have had the store set up for some time now and It just quit working on me.. Now nobody can order anything. I am just a ex-graphic designer. Not a programmer but hopefully I will be able to get it. Just in case anyone wants to take a closer look the address is http://www.cdaleparts.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
