We are sorry, no shipment method matches the characteristics of your order.

[rayge]

This shows up when not logged in. once logged in all related shipping methods appear.
I have a free shipping setup to be used if the cart is over $75 and that seems to show up if criteria are met. for the most part.

I am not sure how to debug WHY this is happening unless logged in.
I am kind of lost on this one 

ANY HELP would be appreciated!

if the method is filtered by country then it wont of course show till an address or logged

just change the error message to something sensible

[rayge]

Nope nothing is filtered by country. or shopper group.
Or any other restrictions that i can see.

They all say available for all.

Maybe this debug info might help??

vmdebug shipmentmethod Free Shipping = FALSE for variable order amount = 49.95 Reason: is not at least 75

[rayge]

Right so that skips the FREE shipping.
I have 6 other UPS Shipment methods that SHOULD SHOW UP. and they DO when logged in.
thats why im so damn lost.

UPDATE
i added another TEST shipment method using VM SHipping. and it shows up..
When i switch it to the UPS plugin it then doesn't show up.

so this is specifically related to UPS plugin..
THOUGHTS???

[rayge]

OK now i get it. UPS CANT give any data without any address info. so yeah I need to change the error message.
