The error I am getting in the development server:

What I am doing:
I have the following Controller/Homescreen.pm
:
package Myproject::Controller::Homescreen;
use strict;
use warnings;
use parent 'Catalyst::Controller';
use Data::Dumper;
use JSON;
__PACKAGE__->config->{namespace} = '';
sub homescreen :Path('/homescreen') :Args(0) {
my ( $self, $c ) = @_;
print STDERR "IN THE HOMESCREEN ACTION\n";
$c->stash({template => 'homescreen/homescreen.tt2',
title => 'Home Screen'
});
}
I have the following View/HTML.pm
:
package Myproject::View::HTML;
use Moose;
use namespace::autoclean;
extends 'Catalyst::View::TT';
__PACKAGE__->config({
#Changed default TT extension to TT2
TEMPLATE_EXTENSION => '.tt2',
render_die => 1,
});
I have the following lib/Myproject.pm
:
__PACKAGE__->config(
name => 'Myproject',
# Disable deprecated behavior needed by old applications
disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback => 1,
#enable_catalyst_header => 1, # Send X-Catalyst header
);
__PACKAGE__->config(
#Configure the view
'View::HMTL' => {
#Set the location for TT files
INCLUDE_PATH => [
__PACKAGE__->path_to( 'root', 'src' ),
],
},
);
# Start the application
__PACKAGE__->setup();
I then have a root/src/homescreen/homescreen.tt2
withing my Catalyst directory that contains all my html code (eventually it will use the template toolkit,but at the moment it is purely html and javscript code which I know is fine).
The error I get on the application page in my browser is:
Couldn't render template "homescreen/homescreen.tt2: file error - homescreen/homescreen.tt2: not found"
I have tried using DEBUG => 'undef'
in my HTML.pm View to help with debugging, but I don't seem to get any extra output.
There is probably something very obvious I am overlooking but I cannot work out what it is.
Update
I have just noticed the following in the Config
section of my browser debug screen:
Config
do {
my $a = {
"Action::RenderView" => {
ignore_classes => [
"DBIx::Class::ResultSource::Table",
"DBIx::Class::ResultSourceHandle",
"DateTime",
],
scrubber_func => sub { ... },
},
"disable_component_resolution_regex_fallback" => 1,
"home" => "/home/fred/Myproject",
"name" => "Myproject",
"Plugin::ConfigLoader" => {},
"Plugin::Static::Simple" => {
debug => 1,
dirs => [],
ignore_dirs => [],
ignore_extensions => ["tmpl", "tt", "tt2", "html", "xhtml"], <---- IS THIS SIGNIFICANT AT ALL?
include_path => [
bless({
dirs => ["", "home", "fred", "Myproject", "root"],
file_spec_class => undef,
volume => "",
}, "Path::Class::Dir"),
],
mime_types => {},
mime_types_obj => bless({}, "MIME::Types"),
no_logs => 1,
},
"root" => 'fix',
"stacktrace" => { context => 3, verbose => 0 },
"static" => 'fix',
"View::HMTL" => {
INCLUDE_PATH => [
bless({
dirs => ["", "home", "fred", "Myproject", "root", "src"],
file_spec_class => undef,
volume => "",
}, "Path::Class::Dir"),
],
},
};
$a->{"root"} = $a->{"Plugin::Static::Simple"}{include_path}[0];
$a->{"static"} = $a->{"Plugin::Static::Simple"};
$a;
}
I take it this means it is ignoring my template file because it has the .tt2
file extension?
However, I am not setting this ignore_extensions
attribute anywhere in my Catalyst project? Is this the cause of my problem or something totally unrelated?
