Hi folks:
Using XMLRPC for some service method calls to make life
"easier"/cleaner for some of our code. I am doing something wrong, as I
get errors (at the end).
I set up a simple application using the usual methods
catalyst.pl RDB
cd RDB
script/rdb_create.pl controller Job
I then set about to use portions of the examples in the
Catalyst::Plugin::Server::XMLRPC . Specifically I created a ping and
echo method, to test. I placed these in the Job.pm (rather than Root.pm
... is this an issue?). This is what they look like.
sub echo : XMLRPC { # available as: job.echo
my ( $self, $c, @args ) = @_;
$c->stash->{xmlrpc} = join ', ', @args;
$c->log->debug($args[0]);
}
sub ping : XMLRPCPath('/job/ping') { # available as: ping
my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
$c->stash->{xmlrpc} = 'Pong';
}
Ok. Light up the server, comes up fine:

Now try the echo call:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ rpc_client -u http://localhost:3000/rpc -m /job/echo \
abcd 123
I get this on the client side:
-----------------Output-----------
$VAR1 = {
'faultString' => 'Internal Server Error',
'faultCode' => '500'
};
And I get this on the server side:

Basically it is telling me that it doesn't have a view to forward to.
Is this needed in Server::XMLRPC ? I thought it did html encapsulated
XML ... no view needed.
Any thoughts/clues? Thanks.
