Hello Jeff,

Can you show me through some screenshots, how did you configured :
- Your Canada Post shipping method
- The product that you're trying to purchase
And also tell me the shipping address that you are using during your checkout process ?

Thank you ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)").

Hi,
I've done some tests on my end with your product dimensions and weight / shipping address, and I'm having the following error : "Error while sending XML to CANADA POST. Error code: -4004. Message: Item is too large to be packed."
So I tested it with a smaller product and it worked fine, can you test it with a smaller product ? (5*5*5 for example)

Hi,

I have changed the product to 5x5x5 and I still get the -5000 error. Any other thoughts? Thanks.

Ok,
So can you download the last Hikashop version through our website, install it, and test it again ?
If it still doesn't working, can you give me a temporary back-end access through a private message ?
Thanks.

Hi,

I installed com_hikashop_business_2.2.3_2014-02-06.zip, and it did not resolve the issue. I will send you access to the backend via PM. Thanks.

Hi,
I just tested it through your website, and I'm having this error : " **-2001. Message: Merchant CPC Id not found on server**"
And when I test it with my Canada Post test account it's working fine, you should then directly contact CanadaPost about your Merchant ID.

Hi Mohamed,

I assume you added a replacement head as a product from my website which caused this error. I contacted Canada Post, and they advised I needed to use by "Retailer ID" as the Merchant ID. This is NOT the Customer ID, and NOT the username : password from the key generated. This is a 3rd ID for other people's benefit. It is of the form CPC_COMPANY_NAME. I believe you need to call Canada Post to get this.

That fixed the -2001 error, however when I add any of the "Spin Mops" from my product list I still get the -5000 error. Can you please look into this again by adding a Spin Mop into the Shopping Cart?

Thanks.
Jeff

Hi,
I just tested it through your website (and also mine) and starting 2 "spin mop" I'm having the following error : "**Error while sending XML to CANADA POST. Error code: -3002. Message: Parcel too large to be shipped with CPC.**", with 1 spin mop it's working fine.

I still get -5000 on my website. I really have no idea what is going on here. Is there any way to record the XML transmission to figure this out?

Thanks.

Jeff

I just tested it on my end with your configuration and the only errors that I'm receiving are :
- "Error while sending XML to CANADA POST. Error code: -4004. Message: Item is too large to be packed"
- "Error while sending XML to CANADA POST. Error code: -3002. Message: Parcel too large to be shipped with CPC"
So can you download the last Hikashop version (**2.3**) through our website, install it, and test it again ?
