KSD Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) Hello,with up to 2000 shipments per months, we spend more than 200 working hours just on writing addresses on envelops, filling out 'pay on delivery' forms or 'registered mail' forms and enter shipping information like tracking numbers into the shop system.We are based in Germany, our shipments are lightweight (weigh between 50 and 500 grams) and send out as 'letters', therefore we cannot use parcel services like UPS, FedEx and others.What we desperately need is a shipment label print module for CC 6.This should be within the BASIC SET of functions of a shop system, but we still miss this in CC6.Further - as a second step - it would be wonderful to have an integration with the German online franking service (web based).We know there is an API as they provide an app for WORD and other text processors.If you are a freelancer or company who could do this job for us, just send me a PM.We already have a DYMO label printer as this is the 'standard' in Germany. Thanks Edited May 24, 2015 by KSD clearify Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 We would like to know how the existing "Print Order" output fails to provide what you need.The feature, "an integration with the German online franking service," would be interesting. Is there a web page overview as to what this service gives the eCommerce merchant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSD Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 We never tried this feature, as we get the error"The following errors were detected:It has not been possible to generate the printable file." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 "It has not been possible to generate the printable file."There are two situations where this error is issued: CubeCart cannot get the order summary from the database, or the /files/ folder cannot be written into.Please check the folder permissions for /files/. You may need to contact your hosting provider if there is a security system on your hosting account that would change the standard permissions needed for CubeCart to write a file into this folder.Otherwise, there is something wrong with CubeCart's ability to reliably and repeatedly access the database server.

KSD Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 folder permissions are 774 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I will wait for your report on what your hosting provider suggests is the best folder/file permissions for CubeCart to write a file for later execution by PHP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmither Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 According to your post signature, your site is running on a dedicated server. This probably means you are free to do whatever you want with it.If so, make the permissions on the /files/ folder be 755 (and I assume these permissions will apply to the PHP files that get written into it). If still problems, then try 775.If still problems, then we need to determine exactly what is generating the error message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSD Posted May 24, 2015 Author Share Posted May 24, 2015 Now we could try the 'printing order' but it prints out just the bill of the order.This does not help as we need an address label printed via a label printer, e.g. DYMO 450.I will edit the original post to make clear that we need someone who can program this extension for us.Of course we will pay for it.Thanks for you help.
