+
+I could probably find several other flavors of this error if I went
+looking, but I trust you get the idea.
+
+The CGI starts to render (this isn't the "you forgot to set the
+permissions/turn on the CGI" error) and then fails.
+
+Further details:
+
+- Running on shared hosting (dreamhost; but everything compiles,
+ dependencies installed, the site generates perfectly, other CGIs
+ work, the file permissions work).
+
+- It's running perl 5.8.4, but I did upgrade gettext to 0.17
+
+- the server is running gcc v3.3.5 (at this point, this is the main
+ difference between the working system and my box.)
+
+- I've removed the locale declarations from both the config file and
+ the environment variable.
+
+- I've also modified the page template and have my templates in a non
+ standard location. The wiki compiles fine, with the template, but
+ might this be an issue? The CGI script doesn't (seem) to load under
+ the new template, but I'm not sure how to address this issue.
+
+- All of the required/suggested module dependencies are installed
+ (finally) to the latest version including (relevantly)
+ CGI::FormBuilder 3.0501.
+
+- I'm running ikiwiki v3.08. Did I mention that it works perfectly in
+ nearly every other way that I've managed to test thusfar?

+It seems that the [[ikiwiki/directive/inline]] directive doesn't generate wikilinks to the pages it includes. For example I would expect the following to inline all bugs inside this bug report:
+
+\[[!inline pages="bugs/* and !*/discussion and backlink(bugs)" feeds=no postform=no archive=yes show="10"]]
+
+But here it is:
+
+[[!inline pages="bugs/* and !*/discussion and backlink(bugs)" feeds=no postform=no archive=yes show="10"]]
+
+and note that it only included the 'normal' wikilinks (and also note that this page is not marked done even though the done page is inlined).
+One might also wonder if inline would make this page link to any internal links on those inlined pages too, but I think
+that would be overkill.
+
+I'm not even really sure if this is a bug or defined behaviour, but I thought it might work and it didn't. Regardless,
+the correct behaviour, whichever is decided, should be documented. -- [[Will]]
+
+It appears that [[ikiwiki/directive/map]] also doesn't wikilink to the pages it links. Perhaps in each of these
+cases there should be another parameter to the directive that allows linking to switched on. Just switching
+it on universally at this point might break a number of people's pagespecs. -- [[Will]]

+
+Here is a patch to make map link to its linked pages (when passed `link="yes"`). It is a bit problematic in that it uses a pagespec
+to decide what to link to (which is why I wanted it). However, at the time the pagespec is used the links
+for each page haven't finished being calculated (we're using the pagespec to figure out those links,
+remember). This means that some pagespec match functions may not work correctly. Sigh.
+It would be nice to find a topological ordering of the pages and scan them in that order
+so that everything we need is found before we need it, but this patch doesn't do that (it would be
+complex).
+
+If you just use simple pagespecs you'll be fine. Unfortunately I really wanted this for more complex
+pagespecs. -- [[Will]]
