USPS module won't save my username

[mturner333]

I have read through hundreds and even google searched this site to no avail... I apologize if this is a repeat but I can't seem to find any info.

 

I have installed the USPS Methods 4_2_1, I do have an account with usps online, I have received the email, I have called and changed over to the production server, email confirmed production server. Activated the usps module in admin>modules>shipping>usps.

 

Here is where my problem arises. I input the username and password (though some articles on here say usps doesn't use passwords anymore), verified that production is checked and not test, but when I click update it goes back to the user id and password of NONE. Why is it not saving any of my data?

 

In turn I am getting the "An error occured with the USPS shipping calculations. If you prefer to use USPS as your shipping method, please contact the store owner." error but I believe that is due to the fact of going from test to production but I can't input my username and password.

 

USPS gave me a url in my latest email from them to use for my production server... do I have to put that in anywhere or is it automatic?

 

What am I forgetting??? Thanks in advance, I'm really under the gun with this site.

I figured out what I was doing wrong, in that particular contribution I had to update my includes/modules/shipping/usps.php. It had NONE 'hardcoded' in there. Around line 235, I changed it to my userid, deactivated the usps module in admin>modules>shipping>usps, and then reactivated it and voilla it worked.
