I have a Catalyst application using Class::DBI running under fast cgi. After coming back to work on this application after a period of absence, all the selenium based tests are failing. Even if I had left the app in this state and just forgotten, I have gone back to a previous version that is in production and would not have been released without all tests passing and the same issue is occurring. An example of what's happening is: * a 'user' is created via a web based form via a selenium test * a look up via Catalyst search ie; $c->model( 'CDBI::ClassName' )->search() is then done to retrieve the auto-inc id of this newly created entry in the db. This look up returns no results ( having used to return the newly created entry ) If I pause the selenium test after the user has been created and manually check the db the entry is present in db and the same search as above works when done manually. AutoCommit is ON by default for this application however in places, including in the module that creates this user, transactions are used for some operations using the local transaction hack. However as I said, this worked before. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I am forgetting here? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Best Regards, Ben.

We (Mark Keating and I) have just started a project to raise public awareness of high profile companies with Perl in their DNA. https://github.com/andrewsolomon/PerlFoundationPR Once we have enough companies we'll put together something like a search engine where you can see organizations which are using Perl based on location, industry etc. We've got some European and US companies but Australia is sorely lacking. If you could suggest companies and put me in touch with the execs who make the decisions on public exposure, that would be greatly appreciated. If it happens that you're just such an executive, please feel free to issue a pull request!
