Greetings all:


Any help on this issue would would be highly appreciated. Like most I am new to Virtuemart and have not had any resolutions in two week. I have read the forums extensively and no luck:

My issue is I have a grocery store on this platform and I've inputted the specifications and dimension with no luck...I am getting an error: We are unable to ship USPS as the there was an error, please select another shipping method.

Hi,
Your shop is in Joomla debug mode.  turn that off.  Instead, put it in Virtuemart debug mode.
Administration->Admin->Configuration->(Global tab)->Core Settings-> DEBUG

Also, be aware that using the USPS module that ships with VirtueMart is not going to work.  USPS changed their service names on Jan 1, 2011, which broke all older modules.  You'll need to use either my USPSv5 module, or Chaz's USPSv4.2 module.

Thanks for taking the time to respond...

I did not have the site in Joomla debug mode ONLY VM...

I attempted to download the module you provided by received an error when uploading on the site...

I recognize your effort on helping and would gladly send a donation upon resolution.

Regards,

I URGENTLY need a fix to this issue,

I uploaded the new version of the shipping module as suggested by Reggie, I am however receiving this error:
http://http://production.shippingapis.com/ShippingAPI.dll/ShippingAPI.dll?API=RateV2&XML=<RateV2Request USERID="628JAMAI7628" PASSWORD="148NI11QT434"><Package ID="0"><Service>All</Service><ZipOrigination>22020</ZipOrigination><ZipDestination>20768</ZipDestination><Pounds>3</Pounds><Ounces>0</Ounces><Size>REGULAR</Size><Machinable>FALSE</Machinable></Package></RateV2Request>

It looks like you have the full URI in the API configuration, causing it to be doubled.  Remove the "http" from product.shippingapis.com part.

Reggie,

Here are the parameters: http://production.shippingapis.com/ShippingAPI.dl


/ShippingAPI.dll

Please see attached...screenshot

Thanks reggie, I could not have asked for anyone better.

I appreciate how you review and fixed my configuration and provide meaningful feedback.
