--- Begin Message ---Package: libcgi-session-perl Version: 4.32-1 Severity: normal This bug should be forwarded upstream. Sorry, too lazy to log into PAUSE myself. CGI::Session->new will occasionally fail for people like this: <tschwinge> $ perl -e 'use CGI::Session; use CGI;$s=CGI::Session->new("driver:DB_File;serializer:default;id:static", CGI->new, { Filename => "foo"})' <tschwinge> Can't locate object method "generate_id" via package "CGI::Session::ID::static" (perhaps you forgot to load "CGI::Session::ID::static"?) at /usr/share/perl5/CGI/Session.pm line 74. Or this: <tschwinge> $ perl -e 'use CGI::Session; use CGI;$s=CGI::Session->new("driver:DB_File;serializer:default", CGI->new, { Filename => "foo"})' <tschwinge> Can't locate object method "generate_id" via package "CGI::Session::ID::" (perhaps you forgot to load "CGI::Session::ID::static"?) at /usr/share/perl5/CGI/Session.pm line 74. The actual error is not what's shown, but this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ perl -e 'use CGI::Session::Driver::db_file' DB_File needs compatible versions of libdb & db.h you have db.h version 4.6.19 and libdb version 4.6.21 Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/perl5/CGI/Session/Driver/db_file.pm line 8. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/perl5/CGI/Session/Driver/db_file.pm line 8. Compilation failed in require at -e line 1. This is on a hurd system with some kind of messed up libraries, but that's not really germane to this bug report. The bug here is that the error message is useless. In _load_pluggables, if a module fails to load, it calls: return $self->set_error("couldn't load $mod_name: " . $msg); This breaks out of the loop, before other pluggables can be loaded. Then in new, it does this: my $id = $self->_id_generator()->generate_id( $self->{_DRIVER_ARGS}, $self->{_CLAIMED_ID} ); $self->_id_generator() in turn returns the module name, which has not been loaded. Splat. The fix would probably involve testing the return value of load_pluggables and propigating the error message out so that the caller of new can check it with errstr(). Until this is fixed, callers of CGI::Session that want to use it robustly need to eval CGI::Session->new .. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libcgi-session-perl depends on: ii perl 5.10.0-11 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages libcgi-session-perl recommends: ii libdbi-perl 1.605-1 Perl5 database interface by Tim Bu -- no debconf information -- see shy jo
