  As I said:

  Look closely at the two log messages.  They're different.  One
references "rlm_pap", which means it's using Module-Failure-Message.
The other doesn't reference rlm_pap, which means it's not using
Module-Failure-Method.

  i.e. In this example, you failed to configure a way for the user to be
authenticated.  The server didn't run any module for authentication.
So.... there's no Module-Failure-Method.
