Am having some difficulty with the FORBIDDEN_RUNMODE param when using CAP::Authorization with CA::Dispatch. All my application classes inherit from a base class where I have defined the 'forbidden' runmode (using AutoRunmode syntax). But declaring FORBIDDEN_RUNMODE => 'forbidden' in authz->config() means that for some reason the classes loaded by CA::Dispatch - which all 'use base MyApp::Base' - can't find the forbidden() rm so return my error page instead.

I suggest looking into this a bit further. At the moment that the
forbidden run mode can't be found, has it been registered in the
run_modes() hash?

It looks like it isn't. If I define FORBIDDEN_RUNMODE => 'my_forbidden_rm' in authz->config() in cgiapp_init(), and then in cgiapp_prerun():

use Data::Dumper; warn Dumper $self->run_modes();

I get:
$VAR1 = 'authz_forbidden';
$VAR2 = sub { "DUMMY" };
$VAR3 = 'default';
$VAR4 = 'default';
$VAR5 = 'login';
$VAR6 = 'login';
$VAR7 = 'authen_logout';
$VAR8 = sub { "DUMMY" };
$VAR9 = 'AUTOLOAD';
$VAR10 = sub { "DUMMY" };
$VAR11 = 'authz_dummy_redirect';
$VAR12 = sub { "DUMMY" };
$VAR13 = 'authen_dummy_redirect';
$VAR14 = sub { "DUMMY" };
$VAR15 = 'start';
$VAR16 = 'dump_html';

But if I set $self->run_modes( authz_forbidden => 'my_forbidden_rm' ) in cgiapp_prerun() and then (still in cgiapp_prerun) dump $self->run_modes() immediately after:

$VAR1 = 'default';
$VAR2 = 'default';
$VAR3 = 'authz_forbidden';
$VAR4 = 'my_forbidden_rm'; # <== here
$VAR5 = 'login';
$VAR6 = 'login';
$VAR7 = 'authen_logout';
$VAR8 = sub { "DUMMY" };
$VAR9 = 'AUTOLOAD';
$VAR10 = sub { "DUMMY" };
$VAR11 = 'authz_dummy_redirect';
$VAR12 = sub { "DUMMY" };
$VAR13 = 'authen_dummy_redirect';
$VAR14 = sub { "DUMMY" };
$VAR15 = 'start';
$VAR16 = 'dump_html';

And this time the forbidden runmode is found and returns its stuff. So presumably the forbidden rm is not being registered in cgiapp_init(). Is cgiapp_init() too early to define FORBIDDEN_RUNMODE, and its param gets clobbered in setup()? Could it be CAP::AutoRunmode be interfering? I'll run some more tests tomorrow.
