Hi, try 

{ data_type => "varchar", is_nullable => 1, size => "max" }
#                                                   ^   ^

... that's what the Perl error is reporting.

That may lead to a DBIx::Class error, I don't know whether the syntax is supported.

I wasn't familiar with VARCHAR(MAX) so I looked it up; it seems it's not recommended except in the specific case of having data of potentially large size (e.g. VARCHAR(MAX) vs VARCHAR(255)). Is that your case?

Hope this helps!



The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
