We went live Tuesday afternoon. Since then we've logged 14 errors.

All but one are:

"Error obtaining rate quote for shipping method 'UPS Ground'.
The underlying connection was closed: A connection that was expected to be kept alive was closed by the server.; Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host."

The severity is "Warn".

Is anyone else getting this? Should I be worried about it? Not hearing any complaints from customers.

Thanks.

We got these all the time in 5.5. If the UPS site is slow for some reason, the page times out. Logan gave us a fix-- maybe someone can adapt it for 7. Here it is in 5.5 code and we had to put it on shipping and payment pages:

Code: Select all

'replaced by Logan for timeout issue curTotalCost = cbShippingCalculator.CalculateShipping(objToken, objBasket)
			'start replace
			Dim maxRetries As Integer = 3
            Dim tryNumber As Integer = 1
            Dim shippingCalculated As Boolean = False
            While ((tryNumber <= maxRetries) AND (Not ShippingCalculated))
                Try
                    cbShippingCalculator.CalculateShipping(objToken, objBasket)
					'qrzyweasel below
					customShipGatewayInterfaceWrapper.ConvertBasketShippingItems(objToken,objBasket)
                    shippingCalculated = True
                Catch
                    tryNumber = tryNumber + 1
                    If (tryNumber > maxRetries) Then throw
                End Try
            End While
			'end replace
