When running the DBIx-DBStag tests, I run into: NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / UNIQUE will create implicit index "organismprop_c1" for table "organismprop" Cannot quote a reference at /root/.cpan/build/DBIx-DBStag-0.10-UJ8Cuo/blib/lib/DBIx/DBStag.pm line 3736. t/cvterm.t ...... Dubious, test returned 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00) Failed 9/9 subtests I think this has to do with DBIx::DBSchema::DBD::Pg, as is related to a dbh connection, it has a error message from DBD::Pg, and has started to occur to me since this week, after DBIx:DBSchema was upgraded.

"probably due to DBIx-DBSChema" is not a useful bug report. if the failure is in a DBIx::DBStag's test, please report the bug against DBIx::DBStag. if it turns out there is a problem with the new version of DBIx::DBSchema (certainly likely!) then we'll need a description of that actual problem with DBIx::DBSchema, not just a note that some other module using DBIx::DBSchema didn't pass a test. thanks.

Hi, I have reported the error against DBIx-DBSchema for two reasons: a) The error appeared after the last update of DBIx-DBSchema. b) DBIx-DBStag has not been updated in the last two years, so I am afraid it is not maintained. Thanks anyway. On Mon, Jan 18, 2010 at 6:46 PM, Ivan Kohler via RT < bug-DBIx-DBSchema@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text

I understand. As I said, it is certainly likely there is a problem or incompatible change in the new version of DBIx-DBSchema. Please provide more information than the output of a test from DBIx-DBStag. Take a look at the failing DBix-DBStag test, run it with the current and previous verisons of DBIx-DBSchema, and determine which specific DBIx-DBSchema method is behaving differently and breaking the test.

1) That doesn't necessarily mean it is not maintained. DBIx-DBSchema hadn't been updated in two years. 2) If it isn't maintained, that doesn't mean that you start reporting its test failures to the dependencies. Things change.

The maintainer of DBIx::DBStag identified the problem and has a fix in his github account. He'll release that to cpan after we do a bit more testing. The problem was the DBIx::DBSchema is returning a reference to a scalar where before it was returning a scalar, though I don't recall the specifics of what method it was.
