the contact, which will be shown some lines above (always post a
complete debug log for a notification!), did not pass the viability
tests. this can be notification_options, notification_period,
notifications_disabled, etc. so to conclude with, i'd highly advise you to
1/ post the contact object definition from the objects.cache
2/ post the complete service object definition from the objects.cache
3/ post the complete debug for this service and contact notification
