Question thread #3

[pauamma]

It's time for another question thread!

The rules:

- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer.

Hmmm. Okay, try this:

perl /dreamhack/home/8174-ninetydegrees/dw/etc/config-local.pl

(which actually runs the file -- should be no harm done!)

I get:

Can't locate object method "account" via package "type" (perhaps you forgot to load "type"?) at /dreamhack/home/8174-ninetydegrees/dw/etc/config-local.pl line 99.


Line 99 is where the shop configuration starts and I don't think I've ever changed it but here's what it says:

%SHOP = (
key => [ $USD, months, account type, cost in points ],
prem6 => [ 20, 6, 'premium', 200 ],
prem12 => [ 40, 12, 'premium', 400 ],
paid1 => [ 3, 1, 'paid', 30 ],
paid2 => [ 5, 2, 'paid', 50 ],
paid6 => [ 13, 6, 'paid', 130 ],
paid12 => [ 25, 12, 'paid', 250 ],
seed => [ 200, 99, 'seed', 2000 ],
points => [],
);

Aha, okay. Comment out the "key" line; looks like that wasn't technically a syntax error, but it was causing the configuration file to not be executed fully.

We really should have a bug open for this; I vaguely recall we used to have one but we couldn't figure out how to trigger the problem (heh), and I can't seem to find it now...

Anyway, comment that out and things should work okay!

Ha! I figured it out thanks to the backup file as I got your comment! Thanks for all the help!

Excellent! Have fun :)
