Follow up for the list. This turned out to be caused by a config problem. id_field was set to the username field... which meant that the session was attempting to restore using the old username as the key. Setting the id_field to username is fine unless you change the username during the session, in which case things get confused. ;-)
Once id_field was removed from the config, it defaulted back to the primary key of the table and the problems went away. Jay On Jul 21, 2008, at 12:13 PM, J. Shirley wrote:
In my current application we require the feature of allowing users to change their login information. My initial attempts work, but on the next page request (which is the redirect after the POST) I get: Caught exception in EMS::Controller::Profile->setup "Can't call method "auth_realm" on an undefined value at /home/jshirley/perl5/lib/perl5/Catalyst/Authentication/Realm.pm line 177." First step was to check out C::P::A and C::A::Store::DBIx::Class out from svn, install from there and try again. Same thing. So, I build up some tests on C::A::Store::DBIx::Class that does (functionally) the same thing (http://scsys.co.uk:8001/17020), but they all pass and the user name is being updated. I've tried adding in update_user_in_session, which doesn't seem to do anything. Before I dive too far into the guts, hoping someone has an idea or two, or perhaps point out the failing of my tests. -J _______________________________________________ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
