Is there any other way of getting the data out of instiki? Is there a  
way of using the database script to export the data?

Any help appreciated!

Thanks,

You basically need instiki as the snapshot is a serialised form of the
objects (data). You will need the software to recreate the objects in
memory before export. You can try and unzipping the snapshot file
(zimple zip format), and opening the content in an editor in binary
format. That should give you access to the contents of the pages,
embedded in a lot of other binary junk. If all else fails, this may
provide a last ditch access.

I have only ever seen problems with the zip files under Windows (where
I believe the problem is with the underlying zlib C library). I don't
have access to a mac here, but can you try other zip programs?

Was there a resolution to this? I've just installed Instiki and am getting
the exact same synptoms as Adam i.e. only the HomePage is "publised", all

Thanks Assaph, I had the same issue.
Under the previous instiki version for OSX it worked fine. The file  
unzipped automatically on the desktop after export. In the latest  
version for OSX it doesn't do that anymore.
I am not a programmer so I don't have a clue why. I'm just using the  
older version for now.
Cheers, Crelis

I too am having export problems with 10.2 under OS X. (even after  
applying the stream patch)

The reasons for the zip file errors is because the zip file produced  
by instiki is empty.

Seems like a common problem under OS X. Has anyone tried creating a  
new wiki using 10.2 to see if that works?

I am tempted to look a little deeper into the problem except I'm not  
familiar with how to debug instiki.

Thanks.

One thing I can think to check: the zip file is first generated in the
storage area, then sent to the client. Can you clear all the old
exports from the relevant storage/<port> directory, export again, and
see if the file is there? Is the file located there OK or not?

That should help narrow the problem down.

Cheers,
Assaph

I cleared the old zip files from the storage.

When I export the zip file shows up in the storage but it is also bad.

Seems like it might be a problem with the zip file writing. The zip  
file itself in my case is 124 KB but doesn't have any files in it.

Thanks.

Subject: [Instiki] my wiki seems to have reset itself
Message-ID: <6d35ecba05090607365e576608@mail.gmail.com>

I set up a wiki the other day simply by running 'ruby instiki.rb' at the 
command line while in the instiki directory. The wiki was working fine and I 
added some pages to it.

Now I've run the command today, and it's asking me to configure the wiki 
again--like it doesn't know that there's already a wiki there to configure.

Any suggestions on what to look at as far what I might have done wrong or 
how to get back the wiki pages I had already added to (without have to 
manually cut and pate text from the log file back into the wiki)? 

(I'm running on windows xp with ruby 1.8.2 and instiki 0.10.2)

Thanks for any suggestions, ideas,

-Tom

It creates/looks for the storage directory where you start up Instiki.  
Is it possible you restarted in a different directory or on a different 
port?  Do you see the storage directory?

Hi list,
  Am new to Instiki. Gave it a try and am stuck. :)
Its really cool. I moved my Admin Log to Instiki. I
want to rename a page. How do I do it ? I saw Pimki 'n
gave it a try. It has page rename option I think. So
it should be there in Instiki too, I hope.

Actually, this isn't in Instiki. If you need to do this in Instiki
there are a couple of ways (besides using Pimki ;)
- You can much about in the storage using the debug_storage script
(see previous messages on this list)
- You can create a new page with the new name, copy the contents over,
(manually) replace all occurences of the OldName to NewName and then
select 'delete orpahned pages' from the edit_web page.

Hm. So the problem is indeed in generating the file (vs sending it to
the client). Can you provide more details about your setup? OS
version, ruby version, how you installed Instiki etc. As I said I
don't have a mac, but maybe someone on the list can help spot
something, as the same code seems to generate the correct files
elsewhere.

Sure. I am running on 10.4.2 (Tiger) and I am using the standalone  
Instiki app for OS X. (so I don't have a separate Ruby installation)

If you give me some pointers where to start looking in the code and  
some pointers for debugging Ruby I could have a look myself when I  
get a few spare hours.

P.S. Export used to work fine in the previous version of Instiki.

Thanks.

Hi, I have the same problem, running the same system as Brent, OS  
10.4.2 with the latest Instiki app. Unfortunately I have no

  Is Instiki running ? Use `netstat -an` and see if
the port 2500 is listening. If you have any proxy
setting, set not to use proxy for localhost.

Hello,

As others pointed out it sounds like the server is not running probably.

Could you post the output of your server?
It should look something like
	...
	=> Starting Instiki on http://localhost:2500
	=> Data files are stored in C:/Documents and Settings/cla/My
Documents/Wiki/storage/2500
	[2005-09-10 16:47:03] Taking a Madeleine snapshot

	[2005-09-10 16:47:03] INFO  WEBrick::HTTPServer#start: pid=1280

	...

And you should try to do a
	ping localhost
and/or
	ping 127.0.0.1
and report if they work (which they should).

Subject: [Instiki] can't make link to file system
Message-ID: <op.swwdnsjtjvf8eq@hpxw4200tc.hsd1.wa.comcast.net>

List,

Good morning. I'm completely new to Instiki, and to Textile - a few hours  
into it,
only.

I'm working on a WinXP PS-2 machine, with the very latest stabile version  
of Instiki.

I cannot discover how to link to my file system.

I write this with Textile (guessing a bit about the markup because I  
cannot find a
reference to guide me)...

"05285 Some Ways to Prepare for the Absolute Worst":file://"C:/
Documents%20and%20Settings/TC/hold2.txt"

or

"05285 Some Ways to Prepare for the Absolute Worst":file://
C:\Documents%20and%20Settings\TC\hold2.txt

or any other permutation you can think of, of forward and back slashes,  
with file
pathname quoted or not. It doesn't matter. They all produce a nice enough  
link, but
a dead one.

What's the secret? Or am I trying to do the impossible?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Welcome!

That's a feature - you don't want others to insert a link on the wiki
to some random file on your system and then downloading it. If you
want to distribute a file, just place it under Instiki's /public
directory, and make a link to:
 
  "Download":/file_name.ext
 
I.e. the link name in quotes, colon a single forward slash and the file name.
 
I know Alexey has been working on file uploads/downloads, but have no
idea how that is going.

Assaph,

Thank you for your response. I was beginning to wonder if I was the only  
one here. In light of the low volume on this list, is there some reason  
why you didn't reply on-list? I'm going to reply that way just because I  
believe this is a basic question - and your answer is interesting.

This isn't always a problem - the wiki I'm working with is a personal one  
on my desktop. There are no other users.

Beyond that, if it were on my server, how could someone link to a file on  
my file system unless they know it's there? How could they know what I  
have unless I tell them? And if it IS possible for them to know this, they  
can surely get to it by means other than a link a public wiki! So...I'm  
not at all understanding how this could be a "feature". Am I  
misunderstanding something?

OK, I'll make a note about that, relative to setting up downloads.  
However, having to physically MOVE a file, rather than a pointer (link) is  
a bad solution. That file may be in use for other functions as well. So  
now I have to have TWO copies? Not good. Shouldn't even be necessary.

Maybe I'm really missing something. Are you saying that I cannot simply  
set up a link from a wiki page to file on my server, sitting in a folder  
on my own domain? That can't be.

It's also not the problem I'm trying to solve. But...What I want to do is  
to have material in a directory on my desktop box, and link to it from my  
personal wiki. This should be possible using the "file://c:\...." format.  
But that doesn't work.

I hope this time my question is clearer.

Thanks for your help,

Tom

Browsers & servers don't know that. This is not a feature specific to
Instiki, but rather a matter common to all servers - don't serve
random files unless instructed.

Take a good guess. You're on Windows, your name's Tom - let's try
permutations of user names and the standard win home path. If you're
not careful we could get directory listing, system files etc.

Yes, but servers/browsers shouldn't make it easy. The fact that other
ways exist to hack your machine doesn't mean you should have more :-)

> So...I'm

> misunderstanding something?

I hope the above explained it. Again, this is not something unique to
Instiki/WEBrick. This is a generic rule, preventing others from random
access to your machine.

I think (but not sure - will test), that because of the way Windows
handle file links, if you plant a link in the /public folder all you
will be served is the .lnk file, instead of the actual file. There
might be a way to tell WEBrick to serve things not under the
document-root, but am not sure if there is.

Let's put it this way: how will the server differentiate betwen you writing:
  "Good File":file//c:/myproject/goodfile.txt
and me editing a page on your wiki and linking:
  "Serve Me":file://c:/windows/system32/config/sam

? 
For your problem, there might be a way to tell Instiki/WEBrick to
serve files from specific directories, but that would require some
Instiki hacking and testing.

Assaph

Subject: [Instiki] SQL-based Instiki - where are we
Message-ID: <43278CFE.7080903@verk.info>

Hi all,

In recent days several people asked me how is the work on instiki-ar 
branch getting on. It is getting on fairly well.
By now, we have a version that seems quite fast enough for a small wiki 
(say, upto 100-200 pages). We also have a conversion script that can 
port the contents of all revisions from Madeleine storage into the wiki.
Issues that need to be addressed before we can release it are:

1. At least one know critical problem with the [[!include]] tag try to 
include a page with any WikiLink on it, and see how it doesn't work. 
Once this is fixed (and some more testing is performed), instiki-ar 
should become a usable software. We are probably just a few days away 
from this point now!
2. Storing cached fragments in database. Shouldn't be too difficult, we 
just didn't quite get to it yet.
3. Some other optimizations (such as caching web and web.pages for the 
duration of request, doing something about Web#has_page?(name) method, 
which gets called very often and makes a roundtrip to the database on 
every call).
4. A sizable effort is still required on prepackaging Instiki with 
SQLite for all supported platforms (to observe the No Step Three dogma).
5. Deployment on Lighttpd and Apache needs to be tested and sorted out.
6. More testing, including scalability for large wikis (e.g., 
http://rubyonrails.com)

If you want SQL-based Instiki to happen sooner than later, please look 
into one of the issues listed above. A prompt fix for the Include bug 
would be particularly apreciated (I wont have time to work on it untill 
weekend myself).

To run the conversion script:

1. Put the particulars of your databases into config/database.yml
2. Execute script/create_db to create the database objects (tables and 
indices)
3. Execute script/import_storage (do "ruby script/import_storage -h" for 
te list of options)
4. Logon to the database and run the SQL script created by import_storage

Remember that "instiki -e development" does not cache anything, and 
reloads a lot of source files before each request - as opposed to 
"instiki -e production" which caches a lot of things, including almost 
all rendered pages.

Best regards,
Alex

Arun,

  To do those types of connversion in textile.  I used the HTML tag 
<code> xxxxxxx </code> around the text and it looked just fine.

Three levels of escaping: 
- use @ to mark segments as code (pre-formatted) text.
- use <notextile></notextile> tags to bypass textile processing
- use <nowiki></nowiki> tags to bypass all processing.

The first one (code) will normally render the text in monispace font.
In the last two ways, you'll have to manually escape the HTML - i.e.
translate < and > to &lt; and &gt;.

HTH,
Assaph

Message-ID: <3ff47be9050914233529a49155@mail.gmail.com>

Hi All,

Am very happy to announce a new release of Pimki: The Wiki-based PIM
to GetThingsDone!
Pimki 1.8.092 is a maintenance release. It contains many small (and a
few not-so-small :) bug fixes.

Important note: this release is still based on Instiki 0.9.2. You
cannot use Instiki 0.10.x snapshots directly. Snapshots from previous
versions of both Pimki and Instiki should work fine.

The next major version - Pimki2 - is now in alpha testing phase. It is
fairly stable. A few features need more polishing, and the main issue
remaining is integration with Instiki's still-under-development SQLite
backend.

Go to http://pimki.rubyforge.org for the full scoop. If you're running
gems just run 'gem install Pimki' and it will be installed/upgraded
for you. Otherwise just download, unzip and run!

Cheers,
Assaph

Sorry but I am really new to this.

I'm using OSX which seems to have Apache installed as a server. However I don't know how to start it or if it starts automatically or how to get an output from it.

Instiki seems to be running as it puts the Wiki button on the menu bar. I don't know where to "Use `netstat -an`" or where to set the proxies.

I've tried pinging 127.0.0.1 & localhost and that works fine.

Sorry if this is all a bit basic for this list - I just want to use a wiki for a personal file system and thought Instiki sounded simple to get up and running.

Hi Tom,

Unfortunately no. I haven't tried to host a sample Pimki anywhere (I
don't think Rubyforge will support this, and I'm too lazy to search
for other places :).

The look and feel are pretty close to Instiki's. It's very easy to set
it up and try it - just download, unzip and run. Point your browser at
http://localhost:2500/ and you're all set.

Cheers,
Assaph

I have EXACTLY your symptoms. In fact, I could have written this.
You're not insane Huw... the OSX version of instiki is definitely NOT
functioning as a standalone application.

My solution: Wait until someone smarter than me fixes the but (there
is one.) Until then I'm a-gonna host instiki remotely (a paid TxD
account).

An answer to all of OS X users not being able to open localhost:2500:
as of now, it only works on Tiger, not Panther, Jaguar or anything,
because recent instiki requires recent ruby which is just not there.
I've tried compiling ruby on OS X myself but it needs a fixed version
of readline library which is one of the system libraries and while I
successfully compiled it from source and it works fine it's not
something your average Joe user will be comfortable with. Thus
infamous feature of Instiki "there's no step three" doesn't quite cut
it. I repeat, in Tiger it works just fine and thus Jaguar and Panther
users should either help me find some compatible 'all-inclusive'
package with latest ruby or upgrade to 10.4 and enjoy Instiki goodness
right off the bat.

Dear All,
as a complete novice i hope you wont be upset if i ask
some probably pretty obvious questions.
I have run and installed Ruby. Installed Instiki and
run it and i get this screen:

C:\Instiki>ruby instiki
=> Starting Instiki on http://0.0.0.0:2500
=> Data files are stored in C:/Instiki/storage/2500
[2005-09-20 21:07:21] INFO  WEBrick 1.3.1

[i386-mswin32]
[2005-09-20 21:07:25] INFO  WEBrick::HTTPServer#start:
pid=432 port=2500


So all seems good. then i try and run
http://localhost:2500/ in my mozilla browser and
aboslutely nothing happens.The most advanced computer
stuff i know is pinging my computer so i did this and
it works fine. What should i do next and why doesnt
this work? Maybe theres something i havent understood
at all...i mean i havent made my computer a server
(with apache and such) do i need to do this??!

any help would be really appreciated as im getting
interested in this stuff,.
thanks
ian

 From what I remember about Windows I wonder if your localhost name is 
enabled. Try accessing instiki with http://127.0.0.1:2500/
Find out if in a hosts file c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
you have the following line.
127.0.0.1 localhost

if all above is ok then I have no idea why you can't run instiki.

Do you have a firewall that prevents activity on port 2500 or for which 
you need to specifically enable ruby.exe to talk to the outside world?

Oy, this is strange. I am sorry I can't reproduce the windows behaviour 
since I don't have it at the moment but you can try to run it on port 
80 (if you don't run any other server and it looks like you don't) use 
the paremeter --port=80
so your command would be like this:
C:\Instiki>ruby instiki --port=80
I wonder if you have some kind of paranoid firewall but I don't think 
it should prevent you from reaching any ports as a localhost.
Turn off your firewall to test reaching port 2500 then.
Also verify that instiki did create a storage/2500 folder
good luck.

This looks like you already have something running on port 80 (or maybe 
you ran the startup more than once?)

It works on several xp machines so that's not the problem.

- reboot so you know nothing is running on any ports (or do you have any 
service starting up automatically?)
- turn off your firewall
- start Instiki on 2500 (the default)
- try http://http://localhost:2500 and http://127.0.0.1:2500

REMEMBER: whatever happens, turn your firewall back on

Can you open a command line (start -> run -> cmd) and run:
 netstat -a

and post the result? It should be available in Windows XP.
If you're a bit more adventurous, try downloading and running TCPView from:
  http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/TcpView.html
(it's freeware). This should let you know which process is bound to which port.

I had a problem like that on Linux (waiting
localhost...) when i run Instiki as a daemon.

Problem was, when i "shutdown" Instiki (by kill -15)
some files wouldn't be saved.

So for it to start working again, i'd have to start
instiki (not in daemon mode), shut it down then start
in daemon mode again.

Don't know exactly if this will work on Windows (never
tried Instiki for Win).

You might wanna try Pimki if it doesn't work for you.
(hope i don't get killed by saying such thing)

Cheers,
Andr?

Did that ever happen more than once? It seems more likely a corrupt snapshot.

Instiki runs in daemon via fork, which isn't available on Windows, so
it shouldn't be a problem there.

Nah, this is a polite list ;-)
Besides a facility to gracefully stop the process from within (instead
of kill) and a few niceties with snapshot management, I haven't added
anything that's vaguely related to this problem to Pimki, so I doubt
the behaviour in this case would be different.

Hi list,

After i upgraded to Ruby 1.8.3 i get this error when

Yep - Ruby 1.8.3 contains update to the stdlib Logger class that
breaks the clean_logger file in rails. IIRC this file was a bit of a
kludge, and it might be fixed in Rails SVN. Until there is a rails
release compatible with 1.8.3, you'll have to use 1.8.2 to run
Instiki.

     Point your browser to just "localhost" (no quotes).  If you see  
"Test Page for Apache Installation" then Apache's running; if not,  
you'll get an error page.  If you have an adminstrator password, you  
can start and stop Apache from Terminal by typing "sudo apachectl  
start" or stop respectively.  You can also use "Personal Web Sharing"  
on the Sharing pane to turn it on and off, but that opens up your  
firewall.

?? ?Point your browser to just "localhost" (no quotes).? If you see "Test Page for Apache Installation" then Apache's running; if not, you'll get an error page.? If you have an adminstrator password, you can start and stop Apache from Terminal by typing "sudo apachectl start" or stop respectively.? You can also use "Personal Web Sharing" on the Sharing pane to turn it on and off, but that opens up your firewall.

Subject: [Instiki] ANN: Instiki-AR beta 1
Message-ID: <433A2246.6070905@verk.info>

Hi all,

I've just uploaded to RubyForge a what seems to be usable version of 
Instiki-AR (that's Instiki with an ActiveRecord backend).
Unlike Instiki 0.10, this one is a normal Rails application, which means 
you can host it on Apache, no more ProxyPass and Madeleine madness.

Download link: 
http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/6251/instiki-ar-beta1.zip

As a beta version, it comes with some bugs and no documentation. If you 
need a manual to install a Rails app, this release is not for you anyway :)
However, here is how to create a database and import data from Instiki 
0.10 into it:

1. Copy config/database.default.yml to config/database.yml and edit it
2. If your database is MySQL, create an empty instance, and a user with 
grants to that instance
3. Run 'ruby script/create_db'. This script creates database objects in 
all three schemas (test, development, production). Note that it fails if 
an instance is not empty.
4. Run 'ruby script/import_storage -h' for command line options this 
script understands. Here is how I run it:
    ruby script\import_storage -i c:\instiki -t c:\instiki\storage\2500 
-o i.sql -d mysql
5. Open a console to your production (or development) database and 
execute i.sql in it.

Databases that I tried it on are SQLite and MySQL.

I am very much interested in bug reports and patches. The areas that are 
expected to be bug-prone are page caching, admin interface, All Pages, 
Apache/FCGI deployment and performance (although you need to have more 
than a thousand revisions in your wiki before it starts to hurt in some 
places).

Kudos are due to Rick Olson aka technoweenie for doing most of the 
initial porting effort.

Best regards,
Alexey Verkhovsky

The problem i described happened everytime any change
was made in the wiki and then the wiki was shutdown.
When I tried to start it again (as daemon) it would
not.

I think the snapshot was the problem, since Instiki
wouldn't save it (unlike when you Ctrl-C running not
as daemon).

Pimki has (in its web edit mode) a way to shutdown.
This would solve it, or else, catch a kill -15 message
and save the snapshot before ending the process.

Did that ever happen more than once? It seems more
likely a corrupt 
snapshot.

Instiki runs in daemon via fork, which isn't available
on Windows, so
it shouldn't be a problem there.

Nah, this is a polite list ;-)
Besides a facility to gracefully stop the process from
within (instead
of kill) and a few niceties with snapshot management,
I haven't added
anything that's vaguely related to this problem to
Pimki, so I doubt
the behaviour in this case would be different.

Assaph

That should probably be done in an END block anyway. I'll see if I
play with this and come up with a patch.

Message-ID: <p0623092bbf60f7cfb8ea@[192.168.254.205]>

I grabbed the DMG archive for Instiki and installed it on my
(Tiger 10.4.2) G5  Power Mac.  I like it a lot, but I've run
into a couple of odd problems:

   *  default location for wiki-textile-2005-09-28-06-31-57.zip

      I tried the Export link and chose "Markup (Textile)" format.
      The file went to my Desktop, which seems like an odd location.
      And, when I looked around for a way to make it go to some
      other location, I didn't find any administrative interface.

      Also, I got a nastygram during the process, saying:

        Archive Utility
        Unable to unarchive "wiki-textile-2005-09-28-06-31-57.zip"
        into "Desktop". (Error 1 - Operation not permitted.)

      My guess is that some utility noticed a new zip archive on
      the Desktop and tried to unpack it.  This isn't really what
      I wanted to have happen, but why the nastygram?

   *  Automated backup, log files, etc.

      The documentation appears to indicate that Instiki will save
      images and log-structured sets of commands somewhere as it
      gets used.  Where are these stored?  Is this configurable?

rich,

I don't know if you're looking to merge two data sets or port an  
entire wiki -- for the latter, I've successfully moved my wiki from  
one 10.4.2 mac to another by transferring these two folders and their  
entire content to a different machine where instiki is installed:

/Users/yourname/Library/Syndication
/Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/Instiki

For what it's worth, in the second path you'll find the live .zip  
file and if you attempt to dearchive it, the same error message  
appears, although the file works just fine.  You'll find the  
snapshots you're looking for here.

regards,
justin

Mostly, I was worrying about making sure that the snapshots were
getting made and curious about the zip interaction...

I should begin by saying that I think Instiki is a very nice
wiki (I really like the Textile markup) and a great base for
experimentation.  Now for some questions...

   *  I can't find any way in Textile to specify a page title
      one way and have its link display in another.  That is,
      something analogous to

        "Hobix":http://hobix.com/

      but with the second part being a page title instead of
      an external link.


   *  I'd like to be able to edit pages in one window and have
      a preview appear (and update itself) in a companion window.
      Jumping back and forth (and trying to remember what was on
      the other page) is a drag.  Does this sound hard?

You can actually use textile like this with just the page name, e.g.:
   "See main page":HomePage
But the more conventional way is to use aliased links, e.g.:
  [[HomePage|See main page]]

Probably not terribly hard to have a preview section, but not as
necessary as you may think. Instiki has the concept of 'continuous
revision' - if the same author make a change less than 30 minutes from
his last edit, this is considered one revision. This takes care of
minor edits etc, and can be comparable to a quick preview.

Safari has responsibility for downloading the exported archive of the 
Wiki to your desktop and triggering the automatic extraction.  I do not 
know why you get a permissions error, but I think that an older version 
of Stuffit had this problem - you may want to look at their site or 
check the permissions on the downloaded file.

Hi all,
I have the latest version of Tiger, Instiki, Stuffit, Safari, etc...  
The export failure persists.
Any suggestion?
Greetings!

The export problem on Tiger is a known one as I and others have  
encountered it.

The problem is that Instiki is producing a bad (empty) zip file.

I was planning to look into this myself at some point since there  
doesn't seem to be any active Devs running OS X and/or using export.  
The only problem is my day job keeps me really busy so I may not get  
a chance to delve into the world of Instiki/Ruby anytime soon. :-(

I guess the other option is to use Instiki 0.9.2. (I'm not sure I can  
go back though since I (foolishly) didn't backup my storage before  
installing Instiki 10.2)

Personally, I would like to see a way to export/import a complete  
Wiki (with/without page history) since I am just using Instiki to  
manage personal information and it would be nice to have a way to  
clean out old revisions periodically.

Cheers!

That's true. There are no problems with export in Windows.

That's one major reason why Instiki-AR will be easier to live with than 
its predecessor. Cleaning old revisions is a fairly simple database 
script, something like:

DELETE FROM revisions r1
WHERE created_at > '2005-01-01'
-- be careful not to delete the last revision of the page though
AND r1.id <> (SELECT TOP 1 id FROM revisions r2 WHERE r1.page_id = 
r2.page_id ORDER BY created_date DESC)

or, in ActiveRecord parlance:

january_first = DateTime.new(2005, 1, 1)
Pages.find(:all).each do |page|
  page.revisions.each { |revision| revision.destroy if 
(revision.created_at < january_first and revision != page.last_revision }
end

That's what I wanted.  I don't see it in the "Textile Quick Reference".

Perhaps I was unclear.  I want to be able to look at the formatted
text of the page (in one window) as I make revisions (in another).
This keeps me from having to remember how the page looks as I make
changes to the source code.

I can do this now, but it is quite awkward:

   *  Bring up two "show" windows (A, B)

   *  In A, do an Edit Page, make edits, and hit Submit.

   *  In B, hit refresh.

   *  In A, do an Edit Page, ...

What I'd like to be able to do is leave A as an edit window and have
B refresh itself automagically whenever I hit "Preview" (or whatever).

Me, too!  Except my wiki of choice is TWiki.  

I'm trying to work on an application to do this (separate from the wiki).

I haven't looked at the available Linux distributions, so these
comments are fairly general:

   *  Instiki itself is written in Ruby, so you'll need to have a Ruby
      interpreter.

   *  The Ruby interpreter can be built, if need be, from source code.
      There should be no problem building it on FreeBSD.

   *  The Ruby interpreter may be available in binary form.  If so, and
      if your copy of FreeBSD has Linux compatibility installed, it is
      quite likely to "Just Work".

   *  The FreeBSD Ports Collection may well have a Ruby binary package.

Well, it all needs to go through the server anyway to render the pages
(the content is relative to the web as a whole). This can be done
using Ajax (monitoring the textarea and updating the preview section
every few seconds).
It can't (to my knowledge) be in a different window - only is a
different area on the same page. It might place an extra load on the
server (rendering the new content every few seconds), but that is
probably not an issue for anything but a really large wiki.

The question is that of cost-benefit. Will the benefit of such a
feature outweigh the cost of implementing it (time to develop, screen
clutter, extra complexity)? That's for Alexey to decide if it goes in
(I don't mind developing it as an exercise in Ajax for myself, but I
have no control on Instiki).

Cheers,
Assaph

I believe you can't - too much has changed.

Export doesn't keep old revisions, only the latest. Import is
implemented, but disabled, in Instiki 0.10.2. If you're not afraid of
a bit of hacking it's not hard to enable it and import a previously
exported zip file (export as markup, not html).

On the other hand, it's probably much better to wait for the new Instiki-AR :-)

Hi,
I wish I could fix it myself, but I'll keep using 0.9.2 until Instiki- 
AR. Looking forwards to it! Cheers!

What sort of options and what do you get back?

The above looks like normal startup. After you start it, just open a
browser and point it to http://localhost:2500/ and you should see the
system creation page.

I am using Instiki v0.10.2 to write about LaTeX and my problem is that 
whenever I put the word LaTeX in a text or heading, Instiki insist on 
making a link of it like La Te X?
I use Textile as mark up, but I tried Markdown as well. The only place 
it turn out well is in a link like "LaTeX":latex

The source of how Instiki format the word LaTeX is: <span 
class="newWikiWord">La Te X<a href="../show/LaTeX">?</a></span>

Any solution on how to avoid Instiki making a "span class" and 
"newWikiWord" out of the word LaTeX?

You can escape WikiWords with a backslash, e.g.:
   \LaTeX
This will tell Instiki not to treat this as a wiki word and it will
not create the links.

Well, I don't use any options. I just cd to c:\instiki-0.10.2 (Where I have
it installed), and run 'ruby instiki'. I've also tried running the rb-file
itself like 'ruby instiki.rb', but neither work. And the stuff that I get
back from running with warnings enabled is just a whole bunch of
'C:/instiki-0.10.2/vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/routing.rb:86:
warning: instance variable @optional not initialized'
and
'=> Starting Instiki on http://0.0.0.0:2500

I really have no clue as to what's going on, though I know it's something to
do with routing.rb, webrick_server.rb, base.rb, and breakpoint.rb. I really
don't think these should be wrong, though, as I'm just trying to use the
default Instiki installation for Windows (the instiki-NNN.zip file). Again,
any help is appreciated.
