Re^3: [Catalyst] authenticate called with nonexistant realm: 'default'

I messed around with this a little bit more last night but had exactly the same experience you did. There seems to be something wrong with the docs or a newish bug. I have used the auth package in lots of places without problems before so it's probably something simple that's missing/wrong. I won't have time to look at this today but if no one else chimes in I will try again when I can.

Re^4: [Catalyst] authenticate called with nonexistant realm: 'default' by mcso (Novice) on Apr 24, 2014 at 06:56 UTC
I have finally found my mistake, and damn I feel stupid now... In the configuration of my default realm, I have a `credentials` where it should have been `credential` ... the documentation also uses the singular form. I noticed it by going through Catalyst/Plugin/Authentication.pl, looking at the initialization code (_authentication_initialize()). For each found possible realm, it looks for either `credential` or `class` exists. As bonus info, it looks like the module still supports putting all of your realms inside a `realms` hash. Thank you for your time, I will go back and bash my head against the wall..	[reply] [d/l] [select]
