I have a strange problem with editing any page after its first SVN commit.
I'm not sure whether it's my ikiwiki backport bug or my misunderstanding
how ikiwiki works.
Assume that I have Foo page with any content and I want to put there link
to Bar page and next create the page. I do following steps:
-
Click Edit link on Foo page
-
Put the link to Bar page there and commit it by clicking "Save Page"
button
The Bar page is rendered correctly and now I can see ?Bar link. The URL
in the address bar of my browser is
http://my.host.com/wiki/foo.html?updated
- Click ?Bar link
Now I can see textarea for editing of page. It's empty, of course.
The page doesn't exists in my SVN repo yet and my Apache server knows
noting about it:
$ find /my/ikiwiki/src/dir/ -type f -name bar.mdwn
$ find /my/ikiwiki/dst/dir/ -type f -name bar.html
- Add some initial content and click "Save Page" button
to commit changes
The Foo page also is rendered correctly and now I can see what I wrote.
The URL in the address bar of my browser is
http://my.host.com/wiki/bar.html?updated
The page was added to the SVN repo and my Apache is able to serve it now:
$ find /my/ikiwiki/src/dir/ -type f -name bar.mdwn
/my/ikiwiki/src/dir/bar.mdwn
$ find /my/ikiwiki/dst/dir/ -type f -name bar.html
/my/ikiwiki/dst/dir/bar.html
- Change the content of Bar page by clicking Edit link
I can't do it, because the textarea is empty again. I have to run
ikiwiki --setup ikiwiki.setup command by hand to rebuild the page.
Then I can edit it.
Where is my mistake?

It's not clear which Edit link you clicked in step 5. Is it the link on
the new page, or the old link back on page Foo that you clicked on before
to create Bar? It would also be good to see the URL you're at in step 5.
