Can't locate object method "ymd" via package... Luis Angel Fdez. Fdez. 08-03-2007

Hi!

I've installed DateTime and DateTime::Format::MySQL via CPAN and I
get a strange error message executing this code:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;

use DateTime;
use DateTime::Format::MySQL;

my $str = "2007-08-03";

my $mySQLdate = DateTime::Format::MySQL->new;
my $parsed = DateTime::Format::MySQL->format_date($mySQLdate);

The error message I get is:

Can't locate object method "ymd" via package "DateTime::Format::MySQL"
at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/DateTime/Format/MySQL.pm line 84.

Does anybody knows why I get this error message?

Thanks in advance.

Bye.

format_date() calls the ymd method, which appears to be defined in
DateTime.pm. Perhaps you have an old outdated version of DateTime - one that
doesn't define the ymd method ?

Didn't you get the same error when running 'make test' ? The test file
t/01format.t calls format_date(), and should therefore have produced the
same failure.

Cheers,
Rob

I've installed it today trough perl -MCPAN -e shell. I did it in two
different computers which before installation the script says...

Can't locate DateTime.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/
i486-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i486-
linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at ./
dateTest.pl line 5.

So I think it isn't a double installation problem.

I don't see any failure in installation process. Every tests seems
to be ok.

Bye!

Hi!

I did the tests again (both DateTime and DateTime::Format::MySQL) and
every test gives me ok. Only...
* t/23storable............ok

... are skipped.

Bye!.
