[Catalyst] How to update a hashed password column?

[Jorge Gonzalez]

Hi mates, I have an authenticated Cat app with salted SHA1 passwords. Just followed the steps in the tutorial to get it going. Inserting a new user in the BD works fine, and after that, I can use the user in the app, it correctly authenticates, etc. Now I'm trying to allow him/her to change the password, I get the old and new password with a FormFu form, and after checking (with $c->authenticate) that the old password is the right one, I try to update the web user model, changing the password to the new one:       if (not $c->model('LocalDB::UsuarioFront')->find($c->user->id)->password($form->param_value('new_password'))) {         $c->flash(error => 'Password NOT changed!');       } When I try to do it, the app then dies with a cryptic message: Caught exception in MyApp::Controller::MyController->password "hash not specified at /home/jorgegv/perl5/lib/perl5/DBIx/Class/PassphraseColumn.pm line 44" I assumed that PassphraseColumn registered columns are automatically deflated and inflated from the DB, but I don't seem to get the way to do it. I have also tried "update" syntax:       if (not $c->model('LocalDB::UsuarioFront')->find($c->user->id)->update({password => $form->param_value('new_password')})) {         $c->flash(error => 'Password NOT changed!');       } With the same results. I have also skimmed over PassphraseColumn.pm, but I didn't reach any conclussion... Any ideas? Regards Jorge -- Jorge González Villalonga Director Técnico DAIKON Integración y Desarrollo S.L.
