UPS Error 120051

[edcolmar]

I'm not sure what is causing this one. The config has been populated with brand new UPS account/pass/key. Running ups tests produces:

UPS Error 120051: SurePost shipments for this UPS account can only be delivered to a PO Box/APO/FPO/DPO.

Any ideas?

The tests aren't the greatest and the functionality is limited :)

It looks like the test is trying to create a SurePost label and trying to send it to a non-PO Box. I don't know which test that is or if your account is setup to be able to create a SurePost label.

Maybe try modifying that test so it's not creating a SurePost label or send it to a PO Box?

This is code from "tests.py" modified to use the PO box. Same result.

I did a search for this error, and there was an official support case filed. No resolution unfortunately.

the tests.py are working on your side?

Code follows:

recipient_po_box = Address('Office of the Governor', 'PO BOX 001', 'Trenton', 'NJ', '08625-0001', 'US', phone='5122901212', email='ben@ordoro.com')

    for r in ( recipient_po_box, ):
        try:
            validate = True
            r.is_residence = True
            response = u.label(intl_packages, shipper, r, SERVICES[0][0], PACKAGES[0][0], validate, [ 'test@mytrashmail.com '], create_commercial_invoice=True, customs_info=products)
            status = response['status']
            print 'Status: %s' % status,
            for info in response['shipments']:
                logging.info('tracking: %s, cost: %s' % (info['tracking_number'], info['cost']))
                # _show_file(extension='.gif', data=info['label'])
            # _show_file(extension='.pdf', data=response['international_document']['pdf'])
        except UPSError as e:
            logging.info(e)

I'm getting this same error code, even though I am not testing to a PO box at all. It's coming up every submission test I perform.

I resolved this finally - there is a pending pull request that resolves this issue #9. Turns out that the UPS error code is directly related to the RequestOption formatting, while the error message about SurePost is wrong or completely unrelated.
