Hi,

I have run thru the checkout wizard setting up the UPS shipping and I am getting this error when checking out.

S is not a valid unit of measurement for weight for this shipment

This is cart 5.03.

change this line:

php:
$Shipping_PackageArray[$Shipping_PackageIndex]["WeightUnits"] = "".strtoupper($productcart->WeightUnits)."S" ."";



to:

php:
$Shipping_PackageArray[$Shipping_PackageIndex]["WeightUnits"] = "".strtoupper($productcart->WeightSuffix)."S" ."";

Thanks Jason, Done.

Now it is giving me the error:

California is not a valid state for the specified shipment.

That is the selected state that it is shipping from.

thx
Eric

Hi Jason,

I removed the UPS behavior and reapplied. Tested with the original code and got the same error.

Replaced the code line with what you supplied and I get the following error:

1S is not a valid unit of measurement for weight for this shipment

Here is the current code in place:

<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
//WA eCart (Copyright 2007, WebAssist)
//WA eCart UPS Shipping - UPS
$Shipping_SuccessURL = "";
$Shipping_FailureURL = "shipping_failure.php";
$Shipping_Packaging = 0;
$Shipping_PackageArray = array();
$Shipping_PackageIndex = 0;
$Shipping_Counter = 0;
$Shipping_Parameters = array();
$Shipping_Parameters["UserID"] = "floralartla";
$Shipping_Parameters["Password"] = "XXXXXX";
$Shipping_Parameters["AccessKey"] = "4C40XXXXXXXX";
$Shipping_Parameters["CarrierCode"] = "03";
$Shipping_Parameters["PickupType"] = "01";
$Shipping_Parameters["CustomerClass"] = "04";
$Shipping_Parameters["ShipperNumber"] = "";
$Shipping_Parameters["ShipperCity"] = "Venice";
$Shipping_Parameters["ShipperState"] = "CA";
$Shipping_Parameters["ShipperZip"] = "90291";
$Shipping_Parameters["ShipperCountry"] = "US";
$Shipping_Parameters["ShiptoCity"] = "".((isset($_POST["shipping_city"]))?$_POST["shipping_city"]:"") ."";
$Shipping_Parameters["ShiptoState"] = "".((isset($_POST["shipping_state_province"]))?$_POST["shipping_state_province"]:"") ."";
$Shipping_Parameters["ShiptoZip"] = "".((isset($_POST["shipping_postcode"]))?$_POST["shipping_postcode"]:"") ."";
$Shipping_Parameters["ShiptoCountry"] = "US";
while (($Shipping_Packaging == 1 && !$productcart->EOF()) || ($Shipping_Packaging == 0 && $Shipping_Counter == 0)) {

$Shipping_PackageArray[] = array();

Hi Jason, perhaps we need to open a ticket on this? I need to get the UPS function working because it is a live site taking orders.

thx
Eric

Thanks Jason and Ray!!

All is fixed.

This looks like the cart definition did not update when I updated the cart version so Ray fixed the code entry and all is well!

Wondering what the verdict on this was ...

Jason (webassist), this thread, and the outcome, relates to a current hurdle I have come upon. I also had the "S is not a valid unit of measure" error. I followed your instruction to edit the WeightUnits/WeightSuffix, which produced a "GS is not a valid unit of measurement for weight for this shipment" error, similar error to eric's "1S". Was the final remedy one that might resolve my issue, or were there other contributing factors in eric's code that needed sorting out? If the later, what would you need to see to assess my problem?

I know you guys are supppppeeeerrrrr busy ... thanks for always taking the time to help us all out!
