Re^5: Dancer::send_file only for POST?

Thanks for your example. I had originally misunderstood your post in that it seemed that POST works but GET fails. But from reading your code, it seems to be the other way around.

I found Dancer diagnostics to be horrible and do not trust its log anymore. Have you made sure that warnings do not get treated as fatal by Dancer? Maybe trace that the POST handler actually gets invoked by doing print-debugging.

If all else fails, redirect to a GET handler from your POST handler:

post '/test/csv' => sub {
    return redirect '/test/csv';
};

Thanks Corion. The confusion in the OP was entirely my fault. I implemented a redirect but the result is the same: the print statement, which I placed immediately before the redirect, is output but then nothing in browser or log. The way forward always starts with a minimal test.	[reply] [d/l]
