#1 Shipping is FUBAR

[Anonymous]

I noticed that the import_shipping_tables.pl doesn't
not parse the files properly. For example line 630
doesn't work with !~/pounds/. Maybe it should be
!~/Weight/??? Also even after I changed it to Weight,
the script wrote the insert statements in the wrong
format.

Yeah, importing shipping is bad, but you know it can be
dealt with.

There is a comment at the bottom here that says this problem
can be dealt with. How?? I just installed this on a sever
for a guy and he setup his whole store and found out we
can't get past step 3 of checkout because of this shipping
thing. If someone can tell me why this is happening and
direct me to the right place I'm sure I can teach myself how
to fix it. I am getting the impression that the problem is
that the data is not being imported into the SQL database
correctly - something related to the weights. I looked at
the data in the table and it seems OK. I can enter the data
myself by hand if I absolutely have to. If the dbid file is
correct I can execute the SQL commands into the table
myself. If anyone has any suggestions please email me at
donb@donsworld.org -- this seems like a great program - I
hope I can worka round this. Thank you.
