[Catalyst] New install getting "Wide character in syswrite" error
Good afternoon, I setup an installation of our app for a new developer last night and keep getting the 'Caught exception in engine "Wide character in syswrite at...' error when making POST requests. Reading through the archives I expect this is a Unicode encoding problem. But I can't figure out where I'm going wrong with the new setup. (Note, the app works fine on 4 other workstations/servers, so I'm guessing it's a problem specific to this one setup.) There was a test error when installing Catalyst::Plugin::Unicode::Encoding. I downgraded Encode to v2.39 and then Catalyst::Plugin::Unicode::Encoding installed cleanly. The plugin list is: __PACKAGE__->setup(qw/ ConfigLoader AutoCRUD Static::Simple Params::Nested I18N Unicode::Encoding Cache::HTTP Session Session::Store::DBIC Session::State::Cookie Session::State::URI Authentication Authorization::Roles Authorization::ACL RequireSSL Cache /); What else can I try to resolve this problem?

Upgrading LWP, Encode and C::P::Unicode::Encoding to latest versions was successful. Can you try version 1.0 of Unicode::Encoding to see if this fixes your issue? I tried that before doing above upgrade. It didn't fix the problem. I'm not getting the "Wide character in syswrite" error now, but the symptoms still persist. Also, once the problem starts the test server won't respond to any further requests; requires a restart. Canceling the current request results in following error: Caught exception in engine "Wrong Content-Length value: 52" Any other suggestions?

Hi Charlie - > once the problem starts the test server won't respond to any further > requests; requires a restart. Canceling the current request results in > following error: > > Caught exception in engine "Wrong Content-Length value: 52" May be totally related but I have seen those symptoms when the body of a POST request gets read earlier in the request than usual, and then looks empty when it is supposed to be read (so the Content-Length is zero instead of whatever it should be). In my case I was calling $c->req->param inside prepare_path, and it seemed like it was sucking in the whole POST body, leaving it empty for when it needed to be accessed later.

Thanks for that. I thought this issue seemed familiar. Fingers
in too many pies and I just couldn't remember where I had seen
it recently. It's an issue with Catalyst::Plugin::Session::State::URI.
I don't have access to the problem machine right now, but I'm
sure this will fix it.

I think I already submitted a patch for this; yep, r13505.
t0m, any chance of a new release of C::P::Session::State::URI?
In the meantime I'll apply the above patch to the new dev's machine.

I'll get that fixed up.
