Hi All - I registered for a USPS business account and have entered that login information into the 3d party module integration USPS page.

I then turned on a number of the default USPS shipping methods that should apply to a US zip code however when I try the shipping estimator tool i get this response: "Rate calculation failed or no rates available for selected address."

Am I missing something? I came to MM from Zen Cart where I used a USPS key to pull back shipping values (successfully).

I have tried using both my USPS.com login and password as well as my USPS Web Tool login and password.

Please advise, thanks!

It is possible that there is an element that is preventing your store from displaying real time USPS rates; if there is no zip code inputted into the System Settings in Option #8. A zip code is required because that is where the real-time shipping rates are calculated from. To resolve this issue, please do the following:

1. From the Administration area go to [Navigation Menu > Admin > System Settings > #8 "Zip"] to input a zip code.
2. Click Submit All when finished. This should allow the real-time shipping rates to display properly.

I hope this information was helpful. If you have any further questions, please let us know.

Turns out, being the smart guy that I am, I forgot to set up my stores zip code in the store admin options. Setting that value cleared up the issues. Thanks all!
