Question

How do I set the permissions for the main Web?

I am trying to run the configuration script but when I click on 'configure' a window appears asking for a log in. When I log in with my user name and password the login fails and the window appears again but blank.

The permissions are set as follows:

Permissions settings of the webs on this TWiki site

Web    Sitemap    VIEW    CHANGE    RENAME
Listed    DENY    ALLOW    DENY    ALLOW    DENY    ALLOW
Main ...    on                              
TWiki ...    on    TWikiAdminGroup                   TWikiAdminGroup
Sandbox ...    on         

I think my problem is the TWikiAdminGroup does not have the permissions for Main.

I think if I can change the permissions on the Main web I think I would be able to run the configure script.

Thanks,

Joe Demers

Sounds like you have protected configure in your apache .htaccess setup. Edit bin/.htaccess, search for configure, and see what constraints Apache is imposing on who can access it.
