[Flow] blog example (definitive Guide) not working

[Peter Linzenkirchner]

Hello 

I found this in the blog of robert lemke: 

Implementing safe and frustration-free requests
TYPO3 Flow 2.0 will support the notion of safe request methods in these ways:

	• CSRF tokens won't be checked for "safe" requests
	• CSRF tokens still are required for "non-safe" request methods to methods protected by a policy
	• the persistence layer will not persist any changes (with persistAll()) for GET requests
	• the link view helpers and UriBuilder won't add any CSRF tokens anymore
	• the form view helper will add a token to their set of hidden fields

http://robertlemke.com/en/blog/no-more-csrf-hassles-safe-requests-in-typo3-flow-2-0.html

calling setup in the blog example is indeed a GET-Request and i get this LOG entry when calling the setupAction: 

No CSRF required, safe request

Given this: 

"the persistence layer will not persist any changes (with persistAll()) for GET requests"

the setup cannot work anymore because persistAll() is never activated.

I am really a beginner in flow (for two days now) so perhaps I am completely wrong ...

Is it possible that the problem is a result of the new CSRF protection of version 2 which needs a security token in order to activate the persistAll-Comand?

Updating the database works without problem but calling setup ends in an error with the authentication class. After commenting these lines the setup runs without any further errors but with the same result as my own example: no error but an empty database.
