Hi,
Im trying to convert a legacy program over to Catalyst, and in the process have
tried to use the new Auth framework that i havent used before. Im having some
problems that i cant debug, though, even though it looks like im doing things
right.
I got my setup from the docs and Tutorial. In my base class i use
Authentication,
Session Session::Store::DBIC, and Session::State::Cookie. My config is:
__PACKAGE__->config->{'Plugin::Authentication'} = {
default_realm => 'dbic',
realms => {
dbic => {
credential => {
class => 'Password',
password_type => 'clear'
},
store => {
class => 'DBIx::Class',
user_class => 'MyDB::User'
}
}
}
};
(By the way i dont really know what 'realms' does, as im not using them now, but
i thought that i can just use anything as long as im not using it directly.)
Then my login routine includes:
my $username = $c->request->params->{username} || "";
my $password = $c->request->params->{password} || "";
# If the username and password values were found in form
if ($username && $password) {
$c->log->debug("we have a username and pw");
$c->log->debug("username is >$username<, password is >$password<");
# Attempt to log the user in
if ($c->authenticate({ login => $username,
password => $password })) {
# ...
(The name of my "username" field in the underlying table is "login" for legacy
reasons. But i thought thta using "login => $username" would address this;
login is the right column in the table itself.)
When i run DBIC_TRACE, the SQL that's executed _does_ return the user object
associated with this username and password combo. However, when i run this,
my log shows:
[debug] Path is "login"
[debug] we have a username and pw
[debug] username is >testuser<, password is >passw0rd<
[debug] Unable to locate user matching user info provided
Since the SQL is returning the right thing, and everything else looks OK, i cant
tell why this is failing. Can someone give me some advice on debugging this?
Thanks!
