It appears that the example app is not in a good shape. I completely
failed trying it out.
My un-educated guess based on the diagnostics output is that it is
somehow not compatible with the surrounding infrastructure any more.
For example I get the following:
Show quoted text
> You are loading Catalyst::Engine::HTTP explicitly.

> This is almost certainally a bad idea, as Catalyst::Engine::HTTP
> has been removed in this version of Catalyst.
Because I am (still) clueless with Catalyst, I have no idea how the
above problem should be fixed. This is not too welcoming for a new
enthusiastic user of a potentially brilliant Perl module :). The
first thing for a new user is to try out the example which comes
with the module, thus it would be nice if it would just work :).
I believe there are two separate problems:
- Something is wrong with the database access (it might be interfacing
with DBIx::Class in some deprecated way?).
- Something is wrong with the setup of the HTTP service (possibly
Catalyst::Engine::HTTP should be replaced with something else?).
The version is the git trunk from AutoCRUD github repository as of
yesterday (2011-10-06).
Please see my attached message (which I sent to the Catalyst mailing
list) for further details and longer diagnostics messages.
Best Regards,

Subject: [Catalyst] Catalyst::Plugin::AutoCRUD example not working?
Hi,
First of all, I am total newbie with Catalyst (but not with Perl),
so please ignore any cluelessnes.
I got interested in Catalyst and in particular Catalyst::Plugin::AutoCRUD
and wanted to give it a try. I followed the instructions in the
"INSTANT DEMO APPLICATION" section of AutoCRUD manual page but can
not get it to work and do not have a clue how to troubleshoot.
The startup of the demo application is accompanied by some worrying
diagnostics outputs (see below).
If I try with old Catalyst (5.80032-1) and old Perl (v5.12.4) as
distributed by Ubuntu & Debian, I do get a server listening at port
3000 and can connect to it. I get the following message on the web
page:
> Welcome to AutoCRUD, an automagic web interface for databases
>
> The schema for database "Dbic" has been loaded, so please select a
> table by clicking on its label, below.
... but unfortunately there is nothing to click below that message.
The startup is accompanied with the following messages:
> Dynamic schema detected, will run in 0.04006 mode.

> Set the 'naming' attribute or the SCHEMA_LOADER_BACKCOMPAT environment variable

If I use current Perl with current Catalyst, I do not get a HTTP
server on port 3000. The application starts but I can not connect
to it. I get the following messages when starting:

Am I doing something wrong? Is AutoCRUD maintained? If not, is there
some replacement?
(Running "catalyst.pl -force -scripts DemoApp" as instructed in the
diagnostics output does not help, it does not seem like this is a
proper thing to do.)
