Description Jared Camins-Esakov 2013-01-18 02:17:07 UTC
I get the following error when I try to upload a patron image:
Can't call method "param" on an undefined value at /home/jcamins/kohaclone/tools/picture-upload.pl line 300, <fh00001jcamins_headshot.jpg> line 79.
 at /home/jcamins/kohaclone/tools/picture-upload.pl line 316

This happens because $template is not available in the subroutines in that file.

Bug 9421: tools/picture-upload.pl not Plack-compatible

This patch avoids using file-level private variables in subroutines
by passing the needed variables as parameters to the subroutines.

To test (under Plack):
1) Try uploading a patron image without applying the patch. Notice
   it fails.
2) Apply patch.
3) Try uploading a patron image again, noticing this time it succeeds.

To test (under Apache):
1) Apply patch.
2) Try uploading a patron image, confirm that it works.

Signed-off-by: Mirko Tietgen <mirko@abunchofthings.net>
Fixes Plack, does not break Apache. Works as expected.
