Problems with checkout in Powerstore 4.5

I am getting reports that customers are unable to check out due to the following error: "Your transaction could not be completed due to a problem occurring while calculating shipping." It seems to be random. It happens a few times a week. Different customers, different addresses. I have checked their addresses for errors and I don't see anything wrong. Customers are getting frustrated and leaving due to this issue.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
-Matt

I Would to know the address being entered to cause the problem, and also a link to your store and ftp details to access the files to troubleshoot.

What shipping method are you using?

You could add code to the failure page to show the error response from the shipping provider, but I Would need to know the shipping provider to tell the code to add, the user and pass you provided earlier do not work for logging into the store admin.

Ok, so on the failure page, edit the shipping error message to include the error code and description from USPS:

<?php @session_start(); ?>
<p>Your transaction could not be completed due to a problem occurring while calculating shipping.<br>
Error Code:<?php echo $_SESSION["eCart1_USPS_ErrorCode"]; ?><br>
Error Description: <?php echo $_SESSION["eCart1_USPS_ErrorDescription"]; ?><br>
</p>



that will give some additional info on why the shipping rate is failing.
