[dancer-users] Dancer2 Basic YAML question

[Andrew Solomon]

No guarantees, but try this:

template: "template_toolkit"
session: Cookie
engines:
   template:
     template_toolkit:
       start_tag: '<%'
       end_tag:   '%>'
   session:
     Cookie:
       secret_key: yoursecretpassphrase
       default_duration: 604800


which in Perl speak is something like

{
   engines => { template => ... , session => ...},
}

as opposed to what you had which meant:

{
   engines => { template => ... },
   engines => { session => ...  },
}

where the second overwrites the first. Why it was the other way around
in your example is a mystery to me though.
