This is probably something really silly, but a quick ping on the ChatterBox didn't show up anything obvious.

I'm trying to use C:DBI to update a field in the database. Here's the outline of the code:

my $groupid = ...;
my $newvalue = ...;
foreach my $key (@somekeys) {
  my ($obj) = MyCDBI::Obj->search(groupid => $groupid, userid => $key)
+;
  if (defined $obj) {
    if ($newvalue eq 'somevalue') {
      $obj->status(lc $newvalue);
    } elsif ($newvalue eq 'someothervalue') {
      $obj->status("something");
    } elsif ...
      ...
    }
    print "new value: ", $obj->status;
    $obj->update;
  } else {
    print "Not found";
  }
}

Now, the code runs, and prints the new value properly. But looking in the database, the new value doesn't get saved.

The definitions: (each in it's own file)

package MyCDBI::DBI;
use base 'Class::DBI';
__PACKAGE__->set_db('Main', 'dbi:mysql:cdbidb', 'user', 'pass');
1;

package MyCDBI::Obj;
use base 'MyCDBI::DBI';
use Apache::Reload;

__PACKAGE__->table('objs');
__PACKAGE__->columns(Primary => qw/userid orgid status/);
__PACKAGE__->has_a(userid => "MyCDBI::User");
__PACKAGE__->has_a(orgid  => "MyCDBI::Org");

1;

Other updates (elsewhere in the code, in other pages), do work properly. I'm wondering if this has something to do with the scoping of $obj?

Update: Not sure if this is related, but the 'status' column is an 'enum'. The values I'm trying to assign are valid.

Any hints or suggestions would be very welcome!
