CAP::ValidateRM install failure

[Lesley Binks]

Hi
I'm experimenting with CGI::Application and thought I'd try the
sitepoint article out to get the hang of it all.
So I cut and pasted the data and then started sorting out the
dependencies via cpan which I think gets me the latest modules down.
.
I'm on Debian etch with perl 5.8

I searched through the archives on erlbaum.net and found that someone
else has experienced this same problem in Oct 2007.
( http://www.erlbaum.net/pipermail/cgiapp/2007q4/000062.html )

The sample application requires CAP::ValidateRM and the cpan install fails thus

PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e"
"test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t
t/01_basic......ok
t/99_pod........ok
t/forward.......1/4
#   Failed test 'form is returned'
#   at t/forward.t line 22.
#          got: 'legacy form output HUH'
#     expected: 'legacy form output'
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 4.
t/forward....... Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
 Failed 1/4 subtests
        (less 2 skipped subtests: 1 okay)

Test Summary Report
-------------------
t/forward.t (Wstat: 256 Tests: 4 Failed: 1)
  Failed test:  2
  Non-zero exit status: 1
Files=3, Tests=19,  1 wallclock secs ( 0.02 usr  0.00 sys +  0.32 cusr
 0.03 csys =  0.37 CPU)
Result: FAIL
Failed 1/3 test programs. 1/19 subtests failed.
make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 1

This seems to be the forward_form test

    sub forward_form {
        my $self = shift;
        Test::More::is($self->get_current_runmode, 'forward_form',
            "if ::Forward is loaded, current_rm is updated");
        $self->header_type('none');
        return "forward form output HUH";
    }

Unfortunately there were no replies to this problem for the previous
poster.  Likewise I know little about the Perl Test harness at this
time.

Anyone know what's up here or know of a fix?  Did the previous poster
get a fix to this problem?

Regards

use the handy libcgi-application-plugins-perl package via apt-get instead.
You can even install the more up to date version from sid on etch without
problems though some manual work might be necessary to install
dependencies.

I mentioned this to Mark and he said it was harmless.

Thanks for this info.
I used the force command in cpan, simply because I started the install
of CGI::Application plus dependencies  that way.
I started using cpan because the CGI module seemed to be a little out
of date via the apt-get lib*perl method and have now updated those
modules that I can update this way.

Now at least  I can debug the rest of my problems with the test
application - having spent the afternoon with Test::Tutorial. :)

Hi,

I just noticed this as I mainly do dev with Catalyst these days, though
still maintain my CGI::App apps. I was the original poster in Oct 2007,
and I never did get a resolution, and it still happens when I set up a
new server (always Debian/Ubuntu these days), and I still have to force
install - still the *only* module I have to do that to. Wish I knew the
answer. Sorry I can't be more help.

Hello.

It seems that HTML::FillInFrom fixed a bug in 1.07 and tests relied on
incorrect behaviour. So skipping this test should be ok.
I have provided more information here:

I "forced" it and it still won't work for me (I am on OSX Leopard).

I took the advice about FillInForm and released a 2.2 version that requires
a newer version. In the new version, the tests are failing on every platform.

I suspect the behavior of a different dependency changed (because ValidateRM
didn't change, and the tests started failing). Perhaps CGI.pm?

It's a matter of tracking down the changed dependency and then updating the
tests or requiring a newer version as appropriate.

Perhaps all the CPAN testers are using the default CGI.pm that's provided
instead of a newer one, since we don't explicitly require a newer one.

Would this affect Data::FormValidator itself? I can probably do it all
"manually" as well.
