Yup:

    2007-03-14 22:09:33 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/MyApp
    $ grep -i debug lib/MyApp/View/TT.pm
        DEBUG       => 'undef',


I put in there per the tutorial
(http://search.cpan.org/~jrockway/Catalyst-Manual-5.700501/lib/Catalyst/Manual/Tu
torial/CatalystBasics.pod):

    TIP: When troubleshooting TT it can be helpful to enable variable
    DEBUG options. You can do this in a Catalyst environment by adding
    a DEBUG line to the __PACKAGE__-config> declaration in
    lib/MyApp/View/TT.pm:

    __PACKAGE__->config({
        CATALYST_VAR => 'Catalyst',
        ...
        DEBUG        => 'undef',
        ...
    });


Taking it out fixes the problem.  :-)

It was my hope that this warning would help people remember to turn it off:

NOTE: Please be sure to disable TT debug options before continuing the
tutorial (especially the 'undef' option -- leaving this enabled will
conflict with several of the conventions used by this tutorial and
TTSite to leave some variables undefined on purpose).

Let me know if anyone has a suggestion on how to improve the wording.
Maybe I will change "TIP: When troubleshooting TT it can be helpful to
enable variable DEBUG options." to "TIP: When troubleshooting TT it
can be helpful to enable variable DEBUG options (you can experiment
now, but please remove these options before continuing the tutorial)."
to essentially create a "warning sandwich" before and after the
example.

Thanks,
Kennedy
