Google Checkout - Carrier Calculated shipping problem [semi-solved]

etho201 Total Posts: 85 Joined: 2008-04-03 Summerville, SC Ignore user	I have configured Google Checkout for use with my site and when customers click on Google Checkout, it takes them to the Google Checkout page and everything seems to be working fine, except Google Checkout displays the shipping cost at $0.00 every time. I have Carrier Calculated shipping enabled for Fed-Ex Ground in the Google API section… I went ahead and set a default shipping price to $9.95 so that if Google Checkout encounters an error it will automatically fall back to the default price… Problem is, sometimes that price is too high and sometimes it is too low. I have weights assigned to all of my products and I’m not exceeding the 150 lb limit. How can I get the Carrier Calculated setting to work correctly? Signature http://www.omnivariety.com

Just puts a dropdownlist with 0.00 the only chocie I have UPS Ground only selected. SOmehow the shipping is not getting passed to goolge properly it seems. Signature Anna Live Long and Prosper

etho201 Total Posts: 85 Joined: 2008-04-03 Summerville, SC Ignore user	One more thing to add… After doing what I mentioned above, it also helps to use Jbeall’s fix: Open: lib/googlecheckout/googlemerchantcalculations.php Change lines 80 - 82 Replace: `if($result->tax_amount != “") $xml_data->Element(’total-tax’, $result->tax_amount, array(’currency’ => $this->currency));` With: `//if($result->tax_amount != "") $xml_data->Element('total-tax', (float)$result->tax_amount, array('currency' => $this->currency));` This will fix an issue with default prices for people that are not logged in.

etho201 Total Posts: 85 Joined: 2008-04-03 Summerville, SC Ignore user	lisali, Go to Google checkouts website and login.. Go to: Tools --> Integration Console Are you getting this error: We encountered an error trying to access your server at https://secure.yourdomain.com/googlecheckout/api/—the error we got is: Sending failed with HTTP response code: 401. Response body was: Failed to Get Basic Authentication Headers I had to remove the authentication because I wasn’t able to get it to work with the PHP/CGI limitations. I’m not using the sandbox so maybe you should try it without. UK shouldn’t be a factor. Signature http://www.omnivariety.com

lisali Total Posts: 459 Joined: 2008-04-28 London, UK Ignore user	Hi Etho201, No - I keep getting “Your server returned no data in its reply; Checkout requires data of type merchant-calculation-results in reply to merchant-calculation-callback”. I kind of want to test this with GC in Sandbox first before I purchase SSL for my domain. What seems to be the problem though - could a team member help us out? Is this a Magento bug, or GC bug, or a specific server configuration problem? Many thanks! Signature ExtraCall.com - UK Telecommunications & VOIP

etho201 Total Posts: 85 Joined: 2008-04-03 Summerville, SC Ignore user	lisali, Did a quick search on google and I found this: # What do I do when I observe this error: Your server returned no data in its response; Checkout requires data of type merchant-calculation-results in response to merchant-calculation-callback Check your php version. If it is version 5.2.2, you may have to add the following to /googlecheckout/responsehandler.php.: $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA = isset($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA) ? $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA : file_get_contents("php://input"); Look at your: /public_html/lib/googlecheckout/googleresponse.php It’s probably not a Magento nor GC bug, it probably has something to do with the settings on your server. Check out this site: http://demo.globant.com/~brovagnati/tools/ Looks like it has a lot of useful tools for configuring Google Checkout. Signature http://www.omnivariety.com

lisali Total Posts: 459 Joined: 2008-04-28 London, UK Ignore user	Hello etho201, Many thanks for your reply, much appreciated. I tried what you suggested, but that did not work… I am actually using the suggested .htaccess mod to make Magento work on 1&1;, who I’m hosted with. Without the fix: PHP Version 4.4.8 With the fix: PHP Version 5.2.5 I have emailed Google Checkout to see if they can be of any assistance, so will update this if I hear back from them. Thanks once again! Signature ExtraCall.com - UK Telecommunications & VOIP

lisali Total Posts: 459 Joined: 2008-04-28 London, UK Ignore user	Hi Etho, Have you managed to get this to work? I just tried GC on your website, and it does not seem to work correctly - the shipping charges do not carry over. Lisa Signature ExtraCall.com - UK Telecommunications & VOIP

etho201 Total Posts: 85 Joined: 2008-04-03 Summerville, SC Ignore user	I believe I have it working. Only problem is that it won’t carry over the shipping charge (I’m pretty sure that is a rule required by google, since it is supposed to be a separate “entity"). Google checkout has the carrier calculate the shipping separately, I am not sure as to why it is different from the shipping calculated on my site, but at least it is no longer displaying the default shipping price.

lisali Total Posts: 459 Joined: 2008-04-28 London, UK Ignore user	Hi Etho, Many thanks for your reply. Yes - I can see that the shipping quote in your Magento cart is not showing in your GC cart - it shows something completely different. Have you set those charges up in GC? Could you tell me if the only changes you have made are these (from your earlier posts above): 1. Open: /public_html/app/code/core/Mage/GoogleCheckout/Model/Api/Xml/Callback.php Delete lines 47 - 51 2. Open: /public_html/lib/googlecheckout/googleresponse.php Delete lines 73 - 119: 3. Jbeall’s fix: Open: lib/googlecheckout/googlemerchantcalculations.php Change lines 80 - 82 Did you also add $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA = isset($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA) ? $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA : file_get_contents("php://input"); What is the callback URL you have entered in GC?

etho201 Total Posts: 85 Joined: 2008-04-03 Summerville, SC Ignore user	I did everything mentioned but I did not add: $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA = isset($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA) ? $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA : file_get_contents("php://input"); In Google Checkout, my callback url is: https://secure.mysiteurl.com/googlecheckout/api Hmm… Come to think of it… Since you don’t have SSL installed on your site… that could be the problem. As far as I know, API callback URL must be a secure address (I haven’t tried sandbox mode). You can get a 3 month free trial from all the main players in SSL (Comodo, Verisign, GoDaddy, etc...) to test this out. Signature http://www.omnivariety.com
