Moose's error messages are notoriously bad. There's often a helpful line, but it's usually buried in a hundred other unhelpful ones.

You haven't shown any source code, so the best I can do is take a wild stab in the dark.

One biggish change between Moose 2.08 and 2.12 is the way that Moose decides whether a class is loaded or not. In older versions of Moose it used various interesting heuristics. In newer versions it uses the simpler policy of checking %INC.

Your VS::Payload::Postal class inherits from some base class. Is this base class in an appropriately named module file - i.e. if the base class is called Foo::Bar, then is it defined in a file called "Foo/Bar.pm", and stored in a directory listed in @INC?

use Moops; class Cow :rw { has name => (default => 'Ermintrude') }; say Cow->new->name
