Fixing “unable set to payment method” error in Magento

Before I write the solution to this problem, let me share my setup.

  • Magento 1.4.2.0
  • Modern Theme (modified)
  • Commweb Extension (for processing MIGS payment)

Surprisingly, its a theme related issue (for some of you).

MY FIX

copy the file
app/design/frontend/base/default/layout/centinel.xml
into
app/design/frontend/default/[your-theme]/layout
and directory
app/design/frontend/base/default/template/centinel
into
app/design/frontend/default/[your-theme]/template/centinel

That did the trick for me. And yes, if you cache on, don’t forget to flush all types of cache from both the browser and  the Magento back-end. If things don’t work out, enable Magento Logs and check exactly what is causing the problem. Feel free to post your solution here :)
