[Catalyst] Catalyst 5.90080 on CPAN!

Mon Jan 19 15:32:56 GMT 2015

Well that was a headache!

In the end I had to uninstall the Catalyst::Runtime + dependencies.

Install JSON::XS as it had somehow got uninstalled, but wouldn't re-install and Catalyst runtime wouldn't install correctly because it couldn't find anything to manage JSON::Maybe

Once the old Catalyst::Runtime was removed and a manual install of JSON::XS was performed.

The latest Catalyst::Runtime then installed correctly including all dependencies and my app is back up and running.

Not sure what happened there but am I glad it is fixed!

Regards,

Craig.

Well I upgrade the runtime and devel modules via PPM.

Noticed I had a few other out-of-date modules that I use so upgraded them also.

DBI, Try::Tiny, DBD::ODBC, Data::Dumper, Moose, JSON, HTML::Template, Static::Simple

Edited my App..

use Catalyst::Runtime 5.90;

Then fired up the devel server for the app without issues and things appear to be working fine.

So performed the same updates on the IIS server and it my new app 500 server errored.

It seems the required dependency : MooseX::Getopt was not included as a dependency in the Catalyst Runtime update package?

Something is screwy with the IIS production server, I try to update the required packages and am getting

ERROR: File conflict for 'C:/Perl/html/site/lib/Module/Runtime.html'.
    The package Module-Runtime has already installed a file that package Alt-Module-Runtime-ButEUMM
    wants to install.

My fears have been realised when trying to update the IIS7 server... never rains and this new app has only been live 3 days as it was launched Friday!

Regards,

Craig.

Hi Octavian,

Sounds like a plan, I'll give it a whirl and let you know how it pans out.

Thanks.

Craig.

Catalyst works fine with ActivePerl, so you shouldn't have any problem upgrading it.

You can make a backup of your current Perl instalation with Control+C,
Control+V, then do the upgrade. If something horrible happends, you can
revert easy to the old Perl with previous modules you currently have.
And if you'll find problems after upgrading, it may be helpful to ask about them on this list.
