USPS Shipping problem, no options

Ok, so I know the drill, I needed to install the USPS module, I updated with the patch from these forums, I have assigned package dimensions and girth, I have aquired the webtools API ID from usps, I have had them authorize my server access to their production server- and I got nothing. When I first started, I typed in my click n ship username, and it showed up fine when i tried to checkout. I mean there was still an error about perhaps not having the correct username/password- but it was confirmed that USPS shipping was enabled and running. Once I did everything to get the new ID and put it in, immediately I get "Error: No Shipping options are available. Please contact us for assistance!" yada yada. Whattttttt do I do?! Also, there is no place for a password that I found, but when I was given my green light to access the production server from USPS they gave me the ID, and a code or password if you want to call it that. Oh and thanks in advance if you can help!

Oh, and it is version 1.4.9.4. The geozones only allow, ALL, UK, and I think it said UK VAT? Could the fact that I am in the US matter at all or no?

Sorry to flood, problem solved.

It was an error in this string:
I changed package type to variable instead of rectangular(which was default) and it works great now.

Yea, in 1.4.9.5 I've fixed this to force variable when using regular package type to avoid this silly error that makes no sense to me.

I am having the same problem. Where do you go to fix this?
