to keep things in context here is the text from the shipping manager...

How do you wish to connect to UPS (non-XML) / USPS XML? If perl is installed in a fairly modern way, then the LWP library should be present. If not, then the http-lib has been included here as a backup. Note: UPS (non-XML) works only on http-lib. USPS XML works on both.

Is the problem really resolved and LWR now works with non-XML UPS
i did not know there was a problem with LWR. since you're using non-XML UPS then you must use the http-lib selection. so if you're using usps xml and ups non-xml then you must use the http-lib selection. the key here is ups. if using non-xml (free store version) then all other types can be used. if using ups xml (gold version) then you can use either providing your hosting is configured correctly.
here's the catch. if the server is not set up to connect out then you're hosed on all accounts. just like some servers display the auto installer correctly and everything seems fine but you cannot install agoracart using the auto installer script. you run it, it reports the store is installed but there is no store folder and the installer has correctly been deleted after the process.
so i think you're in that boat. where everything appears to be working but the server kills the function without complaint.
on the servers my clients have the installer may not work but the ups non-xml works just fine.
make sure you answer the following correctly in the free version...
Use the Live/Real-Time SBW (Ship By Weight for UPS/USPS) module? If yes, then the "shipping" field in the product database is a shipping weight (instead of shipping price.).
YES
UPS (non-XML):
YES

http-lib
make sure your shipping options allow for ups in step one. make sure your custom logic is not negating your API. make sure your "UPS ORIGIN ZIP:" has your ship from zipcode. and lastly make sure your gateway files are not corrupted and/or malformed.
