Sorry, I'm getting confused the way this mailing list works as it is all
fragmented with the replies, the last one I saw was a request for the server
start-up output.
Any chance the Catalyst community could setup a proper forum, vBulletin or such
like, it's much easier and user friendly!
However, I've come to the conclusion Catalyst doesn’t work properly over IIS7 &
Active-State Perl.
This is what I have in MyApp.pm , HTML.pm & the Root.pm
MyApp.pm
package HLP_Members;
use Moose;
use namespace::autoclean;
use Catalyst::Runtime 5.80;
# Set flags and add plugins for the application.
#
# Note that ORDERING IS IMPORTANT here as plugins are initialized in order,
# therefore you almost certainly want to keep ConfigLoader at the head of the
# list if you're using it.
#
# -Debug: activates the debug mode for very useful log messages
# ConfigLoader: will load the configuration from a Config::General file in the
# application's home directory
# Static::Simple: will serve static files from the application's root
# directory
use Catalyst qw/
-Debug

# over this when using ConfigLoader. Thus configuration
# details given here can function as a default configuration,
# with an external configuration file acting as an override for

Here is a link to a screen shot, clearly showing that the same app behaves
differently between the devel server and IIS7.
http://www.homeloanpartnership.com/catalyst.gif
The app doesn't display changed content when viewed over IIS7 and IE, I've
turned off caching on IIS7 under 'Output Caching' options, it makes no
difference, and I've never had a caching issue before whether it’s PHP, ASP or
CGI Perl?
Something is being cached somewhere by something otherwise why would the same
application on the same server using the same browser show different output for
the same application, the only difference is one is being served by the devel
server and the other is via IIS7?
This is why I've had problems understanding what works, because I make a change
and nothing happens, so how can I develop and test from a front end user
perspective when changes are not reflected when the browser is refreshed?
What's odd is the screen updates because the hash numbers change on the debug
output to the browser each time I click refresh instead of actually showing me
the changed content. How is this possible? How can it be showing me an old
error, with new hash references, for output that doesn't exist anymore in the
application?
On top of this, the path config for templates isn't working either, even though
I've now added the two separate ->config code segments (shown above) as per the
tutorial to MyApp.pm and when I put the template in the root, it falls over
from what appears to me to be moaning about the line in the HTML.pm View "use
base 'Catalyst::View::HTML::Template';", which was auto generated when the
HTML::Template View was created with the helper script.
Is anyone else out there in the Catalyst community running over IIS7 on Windows
Server 2008 R2 and ActiveState Perl? If so , did you have these problems? Did
you resolve them?
Anyway, here is the debug from the devel server, because IIS7 still won't show
the change when I refresh the browser ?

You pasted only the server startup debug output.
