Shipping methods are not showing at checkout. estimate shipping methods giving 404 - magento

Whenever we go the checkout page on step 1 it shows no shipping methond
On debug found taht https://base-url/rest/V1/carts/mine/estimate-shipping-methods is giving 404.
As you can see in this screenshot
Tried ways
Enabled the swagger and check whether this end point available or not. It was avaialbe.
Create one other custom api to check whether it is calling or not. Our custom api was also giving 404. As you can see in this screenshot

After tried many different ways we found this one was the issue of the varnish cache. So if you are also facing this issue then please confirm whether cart pages are cached or not. The cart pages are never supposed to be cached.
So add a rule in default Varnish configuration where some of the routes concerning checkout by default are bypassed from being cached.
Hopefully bypassing the path "carts" and "rest" to make it work fine for your store.
Thank You!

Magento - routing to paypal IPN script

I have a multi language site and am having Magento (1.7.0.2) "Add Store Code to Urls" (config/system/web).
I have overridden the app/code/core/Mage/Paypal with my own app/code/local/Mage/Paypal as I have added extra backend functionality.
I can hit the IPN scripts manually (as expected) through the URL by going to:
mysite.com/uk/paypal/ipn/ in the browser (which shows as a GET request in my apache access log, with a 200 status). However when paypal posts to the same URL (which shows as a POST request in the log) it results in a 404.
I don't understand why there is a difference in GET and POST to this URL but maybe it is something to do with Magento's routing?
Anyway, what can I do so that the IPN script can be hit by paypal, and I can still use store codes in the URLs?
After logging each class method I found that Magneto was trying to load a website with $scopeCode = 'us' in run() method in /var/www/simplesteps/site/src/app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/App.php.
This is a throw-back to the time when we have a USA website, but this website had been removed, yet a reference to it was being used.
I am not sure where this reference was being set, after looking through CMS settings I could not find it. If anyone could tell me I'd appreciate that.
I fixed the issue by reinstating the USA website, which, it turns out should not have been removed.
The reason the IPN script was being correctly hit through the browser URL (GET 200) but not paypal (POST 404) is probably to do with it being called within the scope of the active website via the URL, and not a default or legacy reference to US site.
Hope this helps someone who may find a similar frustrating situation.

Magento Admin URL 404

I know that that similar issues and topics exist, however my issue differs slightly and none of the proposed fixes have worked.
I was accessing the Magento backend as normal. Approximately 10 minutes after that I could no longer access the Magento backend.
What I mean is that when I go to the admin url login page, I get a 404. However the 404 isn't generated by my host, it's generated by my webstore.
Everything about my webstore works as normal.
I've seen a number of fixes, mainly this one...
http://www.magentocommerce.com/boards/viewthread/207981/#t274443
I have a few main issues.
Admin Custom URL had been set (but not by me). It was set over a year ago when Magento was installed. It worked entirely fine until today.
I do not even have "admin/url/custom" and "admin/url/use_custom" in my "core_config_data" PHP table. It simply does not exist so I cannot change it. I looked manually for it and did a search for it. Nothing.
I tried updating the local.xml file and clearing "var/caches" and "var/sessions" but that did not work either.
I've been working this for hours and it's beyond frustrating. It's imperative that this be fixed ASAP because we are a fairly sizeable company.
Thanks ahead for helping. Anything at all would be appreciated.
First Check your Apache configurations
I know that you said you were only in the Magento admin but I would first check that apache was configured correctly. This is the first point of contact and you need to ensure that it's working right.
You need to locate a default Magento htaccess file that you can upload to your server. There's additional configurations that you need to make if you're in a subdirectory and also check to make sure that your mod_rewrite is working properly. There's an extensive tutorial on these things here, magento htaccess.
Make sure that you have the right magento admin url
I have to assume that you know what your magento admin url is, but of course I would double check that you're getting it right. There is an option in the admin area to change the admin url, you could have adjusted that on accident.
You say that you don't have "admin/url/custom" and "admin/url/use_custom" in your core_config_data table. This actually means that you didn't set the magento admin url from the admin area. However there is a third place that you can look for your admin url. This is in app/etc/local.xml but you couldn't have changed this from the administration area.
Did you turn off search engine friendly urls?
If you had been accessing your administrative area using /admin and then accidentally turned off SEF urls, then your admin area could have just simply moved to /index.php/admin. Of course you mentioned that you have a custom admin url, but I don't know what that is, so I'm giving examples with the default.
I can't really give you any more suggestions without more information. I hope that this helps!
Found this and thought I would post here since it shows up in google.

Magento Backend Catalog page keeps refreshing

I have a magento install on a staging environment, everything is working except the catalog backend page and the frontend layered navigation. Look at the image below. There is a backend within the backend. When visiting the page it refreshes to infinity. See this identical problem
My first guess is there is a bug in the template file but an identical template file on my local machine does not cause any issues. Additionally the database between my local and staging site are identical minus the core_config_url. The only difference is local I am running Apache and on staging I am running nginx.
The second issue which I imagine is related is that the filters on the frontend catalog page dont work. They are visible but clicking on them reloads the page without changing the products.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
UPDATE: After switching from NGINX to Apache the issue disappeared. I still would like to figure out what is causing the problem
I take for granted that you had already tried different browsers/clearing your browser cache and Magento cache (empty the cache directory), etc.
Are you sure you put the correct value in the cookie_domain setting? Many users that had your same problem seem to have setted up an incorrect value in that setting.
Take a look here and let me know.
I have found that usually this is caused by a server-side error on the ajax request. If there is any kind of error response returned, it will just continue to spin. Either check your Chrome console for a 500 response, or look in your server's error logs.

Magento checkout cart feature control

I have a site, 1.5 magento, and the cart functionality (and the customer account functionality) seem to be disabled. When i attempt to go to the url 'checkout/cart', just the homepage displays.
Ive checked all the usual suspects..including:
checked the url_rewrites table (there is one entry in their referencing checkout/cart...but goes from checkout/cart to checkout/cart, so dont see this is an issue, but did edit it just to rule it out)
enabling/disabling of the module itself, looking at both the etc/modules files and removing, and checking the module listing in system->config->advanced area.
trying to step through the code..try detect where the change over of pagedata occurs - struggling here.
looking for certain terms in the codebase...and database SQL file.
the htaccess file, looking for a rewrite
local/community modules..and any rewriting of the checkout
Im starting to think a hack is in place here to show the homepage when visiting checkout url. The url : www.mysite.co.uk/checkout/cart remains in the address bar, but i see homepage data.
Anyone know where else i can check...or easily locate the cause of this issue?
Many thanks
S
Did you look in backend under Configuration -> Sales -> Checkout ?
There is a field called "Enable One-Page Checkout" which has to be enabled. If you disable it, your store will just run fine but neither registered customers nor guests can check out anymore.
Turns out this was rewrites added to the rewrite table manually. Didnt find them at first.

Magento session lost when switching to https from http

I've searched high and low for a solution to this, with no luck. My host told me they are too busy to help.
Magento 1.4.2 // SSL cert
1- When I add an item to cart, the page reloads and my item is added to cart. [good]
2- Next, I click home, and my items are no longer visible in cart sidebar. [bad]
3- Next, I click "Tops", and my items are still not visible in cart sidebar. [bad]
4- Next , I click "Bottoms" and the items show just fine.
In all cases where the cart isn't visible, I can add https to the URL and the cart loads up just fine. Can anyone help me figure out why my session is being lost between http and https?
I have all my backend web cookie settings set to "no" except for sID.
Also- When a user is logged in, the cart items ALWAYS show on the right. It's only screwy if they're a guest.
Thanks guys, if you need me to post any code let me know.

EDIT: Here is a screenshot of my cookies session in firebug (not exactly sure what I am looking at). Hope this helps.
And here is my Session settings in magento: I have tried just about every variation of turning these on and off.
EDIT!
This issue has actually been narrowed down to a cache issue. We found out that when the cache is dumped/deleted, the website works properly. But after a few minutes of surfing the problem happens again. Does anyone have any idea? (And should i change the question title?)
I'm using a module called Lightspeed from TinyBrick, and it seems the new cache options are messing with our site. =( I'm contacting them shortly.
**EDIT Tinybricks excellent support helped us out. Thanks for all of your suggestions.
Is the session cookie being set to be HTTPS-only? That'll prevent it from being carried over to regular HTTP requests, effectively giving the user two different sessions.
You have in your screenshot two frontend cookie with two domains, one with www and an other one without. Check if you have a correct domain name in the configuration > Web tab > Cookie Management > Cookie Domain (or something close to that). If it's empty set it to ".mydomain.com" and try again.
Check if you don't have different cookie domain in your configuration in the other store views, set them to "use website".
If still doesn't work, What are the values of the fields of cookie management and the cookie validation settings
We were experiencing similar issues where our custom nav (depending on whether a user was logged in or not, was not very consistent across different pages.
We followed the suggestion # http://ka.lpe.sh/2011/06/19/magento-checking-customer-admin-is-logged-in-or-not/ to check if a user was logged base on the frontend session variable before a rendering a particular block, and it seems to have done the trick.
Perhaps you can try something similar.
Tinybricks excellent support helped us out. Thanks for all of your suggestions. This was a localized problem based off cache and a module called Lightspeed.
