The "ikwiki.cgi?page=index&do=edit" function has a problem
when running with [[debpkg thttpd]] or [[debpkg mini-httpd]]:
for some reason the headers ikiwiki outputs are transmitted
as the page content. Surprisingly, the "do=prefs" function
works as expected.
Here is what it looks like in iceweasel:
Set-Cookie: ikiwiki_session_apnkit=99dad8d796bc6c819523649ef25ea447; path=/

(...)
Ikiwiki runs fine with [[debpkg boa]].

It doesn't work for signin either.
What is the reason for these "header => 1" in FormBuilder initialisations?
Why do they appear two times with conflicting values in the very same hashes?
--[[JeremieKoenig]]
Clearly those duplicate header settings are a mistake. But in all cases, the
header => 0
came second, so it should override the other value and
can't be causing this problem. (cgi_signin only sets it to 0, too).
What version of formbuilder are you using? If you run ikiwiki.cgi at the
command line, do you actually see duplicate headers? I don't:
joey@kodama:~/html>REQUEST_METHOD=GET QUERY_STRING="page=index&do=edit" ./ikiwiki.cgi
Set-Cookie: ikiwiki_session_joey=41a847ac9c31574c1e8f5c6081c74d12; path=/

Do thttpd and mini-httpd perhaps not realize that Set-Cookis is the start of
the headers? --[[Joey]]
Thanks for your help: I think I found the problem!
Ikiwiki outputs (in my case) the following
error message on stderr, followed by an empty line:
/srv/ikiwiki/wc/index.mdwn: (Not a versioned resource)
Probably thttpd and mini-httpd read stderr as well as stdout, while apache
and boa don't. When using a shell-script wrapper as the CGI,
which redirects ikiwiki's error output to /dev/null, it works better.
The edit still fails to commit, because in my wiki, index.mdwn is
pulled from the base wiki and somehow ikiwiki wants to change it
rather that create it.
