Hi all, look at http://punkish.org/PDL-Functions
I don't know what even the purpose or value of this error message is, but it is so generic and useless that when I get it, I begin to fear for the lost of a few hours spent debugging.
I don't see any error there, but you may have fixed it since posting that.
Yes, I just fixed it. It was on my public facing web site, and I couldn't afford to leave it unattended. The problem was that one of the $template variables I was trying to assign was null. As usual, I narrowed it down rather unscientifically by placing debug statements at various locations and keeping reloading the page until I found the culprit.
However, I think the annoying "status code needs to be greater than or equal to 100" error will be taken care of by:
https://github.com/sukria/Dancer/pull/264
(I was also working on this in my own branch, my fix also included changing "code" into "status" throughout Dancer::Error and each call to Dancer::Error; either way, whether we go with polettix's fix or mine, the end result will be the same - the end of this annoying bug!)
Well, I hope it doesn't just go away but gets replaced by something more helpful. Obviously, it is trying to tell me something is wrong, but it is not pin-pointing the location of the error.
Expect to see this sorted out by the next 1.3 release, and backported to 1.2 too.
Look forward to it. There is a recurring talk of 1.3. Given that the move to 1.2 took a while, is 1.3 already around the corner? Oh, and we still have the perldancer web site stuck on 1.1x or something.
Cheers
