Summary: I was using an outdated perl and modules. Current perl and libraries works. There are some points of discussion and will be a follow-up after I get modules upgraded.
Thank you for pointing out the obvious, which I overlooked. Installing updated versions does not help if I do not turn them on.

It's an old installation of Perl and Catalyst. It was running some other Cat apps fine, but this newer one doesn't get along. I figured that would be annoying, so installed new with perlbrew. >> So, I installed perlbrew, installed a new Perl 5.14.2, and then used cpanm >> to install new versions of all the needed modules.

I'd rather > ShinyCMS didn't leave 5.10.x behind just yet though! t0m and Joerg have pointed out that I was running the wrong Perl - using the Perl I installed everything freshly with got the plain-vanilla Catalyst app running, and moved to a ShinyCMS-specific problem that we can discuss elsewhere. I suspect it's pretty trivial, but it isn't a Catalyst issue. t0m suggested moose-outdated. It says everything is current - I updated Moose before I wrote. I also updated Catalyst::Devel and any other module that sounded likely. Still got the errors. I now have "upgrade /(.*)/" running, which will take a bit. I may try a clean install of 5.10.1 in perlbrew instead of the system perl. > PS: If you'd like to find me for a chat at any point, I usually lurk in > #shinycms on irc.freenode.net :) I'm idling there, but once I had the general Catalyst app fail, I thought I'd wait to discuss Shiny-specific problems with you. Maybe later today, in fact. =) I hope ShinyCMS is as perfect a fit for what I need as it sounds. I'd rather run a Perl and Catalyst based tool than a bunch of PHP. _______________________________________________ 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/
