Could someone please help me or if not point me in the right direction because it seems like the magento xml file for dhl shipping is wrong, Where is the file located, and if i would to edit that xml file would it work with magento or would it just be a waste of time. I know dhl international shipping api works but the USA system is different and doesn’t work with magento. I have the xml file from os commerce for there dhl system which works fine, maybe we could adopt there script for dhl and get it working with magento. Could some one give me a response if anyone knows anything about dhl api with magento. Thanks
I talked to the xml guy for dhl and he said that magento is not in there system and he said i should use oscommerce. Am trying to code the xml file myself but don’t know the what file to edit to change the dhl system for magento. My account for dhl is domestic api so it could be totally different the the worldwide shipping api.
Hi, this and payment system problems I hope will be fixed in the stable release. I have mentioned before in other posts in this forum, that Magento must either look into existing proven shipping systems (oscommerce,Virtuemart etc.) or create a basic simple manual system , giving then, more time to sort out more complex modules. These important add ons will make or break a cart system. It shouldn’t be ignored. oscommerce DHL module should be looked at. as well as paypal Standard .They Work!
I and others eagerly await the stable release and hope Magento will be a roaring success.
Thx
Yea i agree, Am going to switch to ups it seems to work fine. This week i tryed installing the new magento, it worked fine and i was testing the DHL api but it still doesnt work. I just wanted to when this could be fixed because where thinking of launching the store soon. I know its not stable but i would just like to know what doesnt work. Has anyone tested a store and seen if everything works. Like if you buy a product, then ship it with ups and then receive email for the shipment tracking key and final receiving a product. Does Magento work?
DHL requires that we provide them with the XML files showing that the software is compatible with their system before they’ll give us access to their production rating system. Is there a way that Magento can help us with this instead of just telling us “it works”??? It doesn’t work when our user information isn’t activated in their production system yet.
Does no one know how to get the XML that DHL requires?? Without it they won’t allow you on the production system and Magento support seems to be non existent.
Tell DHL that you are not doing custom development, but using Magento as eCommerce platform
Usually it is enough for them to switch you to the live server.
