Discussion about AttrsContrib

-- CrawfordCurrie - 30 Aug 2004

I'm seeing errors like the following 'Can't locate object method "new" via package "TWiki::Contrib::Attrs" (perhaps you forgot to load "TWiki::Contrib::Attrs"?) at ../lib/TWiki/Plugins/ActionTrackerPlugin/ActionNotify.pm line 68.'

I'm not sure who is at fault here - AttrsContrib or ActionTrackerPlugin/actionnotify. Any ideas?

This is most likely caused by a relative path in $twikiLibPath, file twiki/bin/setlib.cfg. Make this an absolute path and it should work.

• I checked $twikiLibPath, and it's already set to an absolute path

I experienced the same problem and got it solved by adding the line use TWiki::Contrib::Attrs; to the top of the ActionNotify.pm module.

I'm getting the same problem since upgrading CommentPlugin last night. In addition, the code is showing up where I use the CommentPlugin.

Using the "locate" command I can't even find "ActionNotify.pm"

Bruce, it's the action tracker.Thorkild, your solution is correct. I have corrected the distribution of the Action Tracker.

Raquel, did you follow the installation instructions and run the CommentPlugin installer script? You need to have the AttrsContrib module downloaded and installed.

The current zip file does not seem to contain a ./AttrsContrib_installer.pl script. Is that obsolete?

-- ChristopherHuhn - 02 Feb 2005

No, it's just automatically included in the manifest by the build script. You can just ignore it.

This contrib is listed in the ContribPackage index page, but there is no indication what it does. The contrib needs a SHORTDESCRIPTION.

Also, the "tested on" form field is empty.
