Hi All,

I am having a bit of a problem with DateTime objects and $c->flash.

I am using Perl Catalyst, Mason, DBIx::Class, where the DBIx::Class database packages uses DBIx::Class::InflateColumn::DateTime.
Where any column with a date or datetime data type can be displayed using DateTime methods.

I don't have any problem with $c->stash, only with $c->flash.

CONTROLLER

.
.
sub show_rsvp_POST :Local{
    my ($self, $c) = @_;
    my $model = $c->model( 'RSVP' );
    my $params = $c->req->params;

    my $rsvps = $model->srch_user_info( $params->{ 'srchuser' } );
    if($individualRSVP) {
        $c->flash->{ 'rsvps' } = $rsvps;
        $c->response->redirect("show_individual_rsvp");
        return;
    }
    else {
        $c->flash->{ 'error' } = "There are no users with with that na
+me";
        $c->response->redirect("show_rsvplist");
        return;
    }
}

$rsvps is an array of database objects. It contains a DateTime field called rsvpdate. I am using a $c-flash, because I am redirecting the data to a different View, called show_rsvplist.
When I loop through each row to display, it will display the data, when I don't include the rsvpdate. Howwever, when I include the rsvpdate column, I use the DateTime method to display that data
as follows:

MASON TEMPLATE

.
.
<table>
   <tr>
     <td>Name</td>
     <td>RSVP Date</td>
   <tr>
% foreach my $rsvp (@$rsvps) {
      <tr>
        <td><% $rsvp->name %></td>
        <td><% $rsvp->rsvpdate-mdy('/') %></td>
      <tr>
% }
</table>
.
.
<%init>
my $rsvps = $c->flash->{ 'rsvps' };
</%init>

As I mentioned, when $c->stash is used, I don't have problems with DateTime objects. But, I need to use the $c->flash because I am calling a different view with a redirect.
When I attempt to display the datetime object with $c-flash, I get the following message:

DBIx::Class::ResultSource::schema(): Unable to perform storage-dependent operations with a detached result source (source 'VRsvps' is not associated with a schema). You need to use $schema->thaw() or manually set $DBIx::Class::ResultSourceHandle::thaw_schema while thawing.....

It suggest that I am not associating the database table with a schema. That is not the case at all.

If anyone has experienced this problem, please help. Thanks.
