Please retry with latest Dancer from devel branch, I've applied Chris fix. Granted, it's a workaround, but it looks like it's not a bug in MIME::Types, but in the preforking platforms. Hard to fix anyway. On 11 February 2011 14:40, damien krotkine <dkrotkine@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi guys,
As reported by Chris, I think this whole thread is linked to issue GH#136. This issues was fixed, but the fix was then removed accidentally by an other commit.
Chris has proposed to reintroduce the fix ( basically just BEGIN { MIME::Types->new(only_complete => 1); } )
He has also provided a test to check it.
Please check his PR#310 ( https://github.com/sukria/Dancer/pull/310/ )
I think that's all we need for now, but don't take my word for it :) Have a look at it, and possibly propose additional changes, or a better solution.
In any case, it'd be good to gather the efforts on this fix
Thanks

After some debugging i found that MIME::Types (used in Dancer::MIME) read and parse mime types from it DATA handle. This handle is opening by Perl during module load procedure. But subsequent reads occured in &MIME::Types::init (which called from constructor).

I propose three different solutions:
1. Remove MIME::Types from Dancer::MIME completely :)
2. Explicitly call &MIME::Types::init early (before fork):
package Dancer::MIME; use strict; use warnings; use base 'Dancer::Object::Singleton'; use MIME::Types;
MIME::Types->init;
3. Use MIME::Types later (in &Dancer::MIME::init):
sub init { my ($class, $instance) = @_; eval "use MIME::Types"; $instance->mime_type(MIME::Types->new(only_complete => 1)); $instance->aliases({}); }
I would dare to propose two additional potential solutions: 4. Solve the issue in MIME::Type, the author is usually very responsive and he should be willing to accept patches 5. Investigate the possibility to use Media::Type::Simple, from the feedback page of MIME::Type it seems that this module does the same things of MIME::Type but with additional features.
I can try to propose a patch for MIME::Type to MARKOV (i.e. start working on solution 4). Cheers, Flavio. _______________________________________________ Dancer-users mailing list Dancer-users@perldancer.org http://www.backup-manager.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/dancer-users
