Hi Michael,

Unfortunately the Tutorial is a bit out of date.

Please look at this:

http://search.cpan.org/~jayk/Catalyst-Plugin-Authentication/lib/Catalyst/Plugin/Authentication.pm

and this:

http://search.cpan.org/~jayk/Catalyst-Authentication-Store-DBIx-Class/lib/Catalyst/Authentication/Store/DBIx/Class.pm

and your issues should be cleared up.

Jay

PANIC!!!

So, the gentoo overlay installation is altered like:

dev-perl/Catalyst-Authentication-Store-DBIx-Class
!dev-perl/Catalyst-Plugin-Authentication-Store-DBIx-Class
!dev-perl/Catalyst-Plugin-Authentication-Store-DBIC

Okay... no more 'Plugin' or 'DBIC' anymore, it seems.

Then I did find this:
http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/htdocs/Catalyst-Authentication-Store-DBIx-Class/Catalyst/Authentication/Store/DBIx/Class.html

And, I try to change a couple of items in the configs, like so:

authentication => {
                       default_realm => 'members',
                       realms => {
                           members => {
                               credential => {
                                   class => 'Password',
                                   password_field => 'password',
                                   password_type => 'clear'
                               },
                               store => {
                                   class => 'DBIx::Class',
                                   user_class => 'MyAppDB::Users',
                                   id_field => 'user_id',
                                   role_relation => 'userroles',
                                   role_field => 'role_name',
                               }

... to mimic what is in that doco.

Caught exception in BanTrace::Controller::Login->index "The user
object
Catalyst::Authentication::Store::DBIx::Class::User=HASH(0x9469e70)
does
not support any known password authentication mechanism.,,

...here:

  35:     if ($username && $password) {
  36:
  37:         # Attempt to log the user in
  38:         if ($c->login($username, $password)) {

WTF????

My application is configured exactly like the tutorial... used to be
written?? No. It still looks like: Authentication::Store::DBIC

And that Plugin:: isn't part of the installation now... this _can't_
be
okay, no?

Alright, so this is the new 'login' method, 'authenticate'?

  37:         # Attempt to log the user in
  38:         # if ($c->login($username, $password)) {
  39:         if ($c->authenticate($username, $password)) {


Caught exception in BanTrace::Controller::Login->index "authenticate
called with nonexistant realm: 'MYPASSWORD'?

Ouch! Oh, with a hashref, now:

       # if ($c->login($username, $password)) {
       if ($c->authenticate({username => $username, password =>
$password}))

So now I'm in... sort of. Other parts are broken...

if ($c->check_user_roles('admin')) {

... didn't seem to fly.

Now, I'm stuck. That method comes from, I think, ::DBIC ... what's the
new way? Fortunately, in this app, if you are not 'admin' you must
be a
user... but I'd like to have my ROLE back!!!

Any help really, really appreciated. '-)

Cheers,
