When saving a change to a page, I get the following error:

During save of file Main.OfficeLocations an error was found by the version control system. Please notify your TWiki administrator. 

/usr/bin/ci -q -l -m'none' -t-none -w'guest' /Library/WebServer/twiki/data/Main/OfficeLocations.txt 2>&1
ci: invalid identifier `'
ci aborted

Go back in your browser and save your changes locally. 

It seems that the changes actually do get saved, but where can I look to find the source of this error? I tried changing cmdQuote variable in the config file from single quote to double quotes, but the error remained the same.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

Here is my configuration:

• TWiki version: 01 Feb 2003
• Perl version: 5.6.0
• Web server & version: Apache/1.3.27 (Darwin)
• Server OS: Mac OS X (Unix (darwin))
• Web browser & version: Explorer 5.2 for Mac
• Client OS: Mac OS X (Unix (darwin))

Answer

My mistake. I used TextEdit on the Macintosh to edit TWiki.cfg and TWiki.pm and the line endings were such that the declarations needed for "Fixing the RCS user" in topic TWikiOnMacOSX were placed into comments. Editing the files and correcting the line endings fixed this.
