Hi,


I have UPS and USPS shipping gateways set to ON with the correct account info in them. I also have active destinations all 50 US states and Canada. Why is it that when I try a test order I get this message on checkout page:

"Shipping

No shipping is available for this order to your selected destination. "


Please advise, how to make the shipping for these gateways calculate by weight and show all options...

Thanks,

Please advise how to set up UPS and USPS config correctly, so I don't get these errors on checkout.

I should be getting a list of rates for this weight based on UPS and USPS config, and not this error message: Problems... No shipping selected

In the backend, I see mention of having to set frontend.checkout.shipping.system to the correct value, but this setting DOES NOT EXIST at all in my config. Please advise how to get this working.

The shipping system should be more flexible now in that you don't have to turn it on for the whole site. Instead, you can set it on for particular shipping bands. So for example, you can have a US region with USPS, then a European region with UPS and then use the weight/banded system elsewhere. Or you can mix them within the same location, for example use UPS up to 5kg and then have banded weight shipping above that.

If you turn a system on from the payment/shipping gateways page, an extra box should show when you create or edit shipping weight bands, you can enter UPS or USPS in that.

Any errors retrieving data from the remote shipping systems should be in the logs.

Something is still wrong.

I set up 'North America' as having $15.00 shipping for all orders up to 50 lbs.

The item in my cart is set to weight of 2 lbs.

When I check out, choosing 'USA - New York', which is part of North America in my backend (and on the map!), i get

Shipping


It seems the problem is not specifically iwth UPS, USPS, but that my shipping rates are not picking up at all, even when set to a specific amount.

ok, I got it...Standard Post was not set to live, and that was where I was doing my experimenting. Now that all the pieces are in place, it's working

Great, if you can mark this thread as answered that would help others find it in future.
