Why won't it calculate shipping

Why won't it calculate shipping

I need help:

I have a page in which it seems I'm passing all values necessary for UPS to calculate shipping, but it won't calculate shipping for products coming from this specific page 'quote_form_min_r.php'. I echo values on both cart.php and confirm_cart.php and the values are definitely there.

I'd create a page with the session dump that you can visit after you think shipping should be calculated like:

php:
<?php

@session_start();
var_dump($_SESSION);
?>



Then you can view source on that page to see the communication with the UPS service including any errors to help determine what is going on.

If you think it'll take you 1/2 hr, can you fix it? I did what you said. Below is some of what I got. I see Length Width Height Weight say 'NULL' but so does it when I test from our Shopping Cart which does calculate the shipping. So I don't understand it and I'll be here till midnight because I have meeting tomorrow AM and am trying to do other pages.

I am uploading files that changed again in case you need to look at.

Thanks.

This looks like it gave a shipping quote of $20.73 is that wrong? I'd need full FTP access and steps to reproduce to work on your files.

Oh, I probably pasted the one that works. Here's the one that doesn't:

Below is the ftp for different folders. Those are the only two you need. The first one is for the quote that has the Add to Cart (I believe you already have it in your Dreamweaver) and the second is for the eCart.

The FTP information doesn't seem to work for me. The old FTP information I have still works, but it just gets me to the add to cart page. I'll need to access the eCart folder since that is where the shipping is calculated.

yes, the 2nd one works for the eCart. I noticed the tempuser4 got capitalized T. It should be lower case tempuser4@.

So, they both works but lower case tempuser.

UPS won't ship packages over 150lbs. You had your cart set up to ship everything in one package, and that isn't possible with heavy items. I updated it to ship each item individually and that seems to have fixed the problem. I did have to make a change to the WA_eCart_UPS_PHP.php file, so I put a copy of it in the eCart folder since I couldn't access the folder with the original file.
