hello Tomas and everyone, Thank you for that.
I got it working. What I also did was the in the case of an exception, I will redirect the user back to the main page with the error shown. I would like to share what I did. On Root.pm->end: I passed the error message to the flash (I have flash_to_stash turned on) because due to a redirection, the only way the error message can be sustained is via the flash. ============ sub end : ActionClass('RenderView') { my ($self, $c) = @_; if ( scalar @{ $c->error } ) { $c->flash->{errors} = $c->error; $c->response->redirect($c->uri_for('/')); $c->error(0); } return 1; }; On my controller, Subscriptions.pm ======================= sub _save_address : Private { eval { ..... }; if ($@) { $c->error (' A problem occurred when saving your address. Please try again later' ); } } Using die(' A problem occurred when saving your address. Please try again later' );, I would get an error message such as "Exception caught in myApp::Controller::Subscription->_save_address" which doesn't look so good to the users. that's why I used $c->error. Please tell me if it's bad practice? thank you, everybody for your time! :) K. akimoto On Mon, Jul 6th, 2009 at 12:22 AM, Tomas Doran <bobtf...@bobtfish.net> wrote: > > On 5 Jul 2009, at 05:32, kakim...@tpg.com.au wrote: > > Any idea of how to get a custom screen up? > > You're not clearing the errors, so Catalyst gives you an error > screen: > > http://search.cpan.org/~flora/Catalyst-Runtime-5.80007/lib/ > Catalyst.pm#$c-%3Eclear_errors > > Cheers > t0m > > > _______________________________________________ > List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk > Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst > Searchable archive: > http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ > Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/ > > > _______________________________________________ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
