I'd like to run ikiwiki under cygwin. I'm new to ikiwiki and have tried to follow the setup tutorial as best I could. I got all the way up to step 7, but I can't get the CGI to run successfully (step 8).
After editing ikiwiki.setup, and running "ikiwiki --setup", the CGI script is successfully created. However, if I then click on "Edit Page" link, I see nothing in the browser and the following in the logs:
Can anyone decipher this for me? I spent some time with cpan earlier today downloading the latest version I could find of prerequisite modules such as HTML::Template and CGI::FormBuilder.
It would help to know what version of CGI::FormBuilder you have. Mine
(3.03.01) does not seem to contain this error message. --[[Joey]]
I have version 3.0401 of CGI::FormBuilder -- the latest from CPAN. If you are wondering about any other modules, the answer
is likely the same: the latest from CPAN. And you're right: the error string in question does not appear in CGI::FormBuilder. I found it in HTML::Template (version 2.8).
OK, so downgrading CGI::FormBuilder to 3.0302 makes the problem go away. I'll leave it to you to figure out whether the bug is in CGI::FormBuilder or in IkiWiki. --Steve
A different problem has reared its ugly head. When I click on "RecentChanges", the CGI complains about an undefined subroutine:
Indeed there is no such routine IkiWiki::XMLin(). I don't understand how this can possibly work -- as it manifestly does on linux.
