The issues seem to be with Dreamhosts version of Rails/fastcgi/ruby (not sure which) I compiled my own versions of these and used them and all the issues disappeared for me, especially the fastcgi issues. john From junk.3eyes at gmail.com Mon Apr 3 09:04:43 2006 From: junk.3eyes at gmail.com (John Evans) Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2006 16:04:43 +0300 Subject: [Instiki] Issues migrating storage from 10.2 to 11.0 In-Reply-To: <1afe98470603311459o5c1303ecib76f2bf3532159ce@mail.gmail.com> References: <1afe98470603311459o5c1303ecib76f2bf3532159ce@mail.gmail.com> Message-ID: <44179F36-799A-421B-BB8E-E9F7568D60EE@gmail.com> I followed all the instructions here http://svn.instiki.org/instiki/ tags/release-0.11.0/README and noticed one thing not documented and one issue.

One other issue, although minor: Most blank lines in the text were removed, changing the format of pages quite a bit. Editing fixed these, but I do seem to be seeing other issues with markup.

I'll be happy to document this at Instiki.org (where, last I looked, it is not documented), and pass it on to TextDrive and ask that it gets included in their knowledge base. This is so delightfully simple, and thus congruent with much of the rest of Instiki (although I suppose this simplicity is actually due to how Rails works, in truth). I'm still just a bit confused about something, however. In my Instiki instance, I have a parent wiki, which has spawned a number of child wikis, so to speak. Looking at the directory structure on the server, what I see is just ONE sqlite3 db file (well, of course - not need for more, yes?). That contains ALL the wikis, yes? And, just to be very very clear, ftping that file to my Windows desktop, from the (I think) BSD OS at TestDrive, can that db file be dropped into a fresh Windows install of Instiki, or must it go back only to an Instiki running under the same OSas that from which it came? Sorry to be so ignorant, but I haven't had time to learn everything yet - still working on it! Thanks for any help you can offer. Tom C.

If you run launch Instiki via ./instiki.cmd, this script makes sure that the binary in question is on the path. By the way, if somebody would submit a more robust launcher script for either Windows or Linux, it would be highly appreciated.

That site is working well enough. DHH, understandably, has more important things to do. As long as it is so, I2 is not moving forward. As for Instiki, we've just had a major release.

It looks like you may have solved my problem. I had seen that "How to contribute" link, but thought it was about soliciting monetary contributions - an idea I like but which I cannot offer just now. Now that I understand what it REALLY means, I can go forward. I really do want to put my findings somewhere they might matter, if someone else hasn't already documented the problem I'm running into. Now I'm wondering why I posted all those problem reports to the list and no one directed me to this link. Leaves me with the feeling that I'm just talking to myself. I hope not. Will check out this new option. Thanks again. Tom On Tue, 11 Apr 2006 23:16:34 -0700, Rob Sanheim wrote: > On 4/12/06, Tom Cloyd wrote: >> Well, nuts. I got clever.

I just tested it on my Windows installation of the same version, and it has the same problem: assign one page to one category, and suddenly that one page is all that's listed when clicking the "All pages" link. I'm not sure where to go with this. Any suggestions?

It works more than well enough to use now, but this list is not much of a place to report problems, given the slow-to-no response which seems to occur. And I recently tried to become more of a contributor by getting access to the bug collector at Trac, but...no response, again. It appears at times almost to be an abandonned program. I hope this is not true. I'm currently making considerable use of it - it's terrific - the 0.11.0 version - categories or not.

You can click your way from the homepage to them with two or three clicks. Editing the allegedly un-referenced page does nothing to change this, editing the referring page does help however.

They still appear in the All pages list. However, the problem seems related to the need to recreate that page - or something like this. Sometimes shutting down the session (close browser) and return reveals that orphans really ARE gone - often in fact. Other times, this doesn't seem to work. I find this all confusing, and don't have time or skill to chase it down. I HAVE, however, always managed somehow to flush orphans in all cases, and I run about 8 different Instiki wikis.
