Question

Hey,

I've come quite far with installing Twiki now and I'm having some problems with finishing it. I got it working, Envtest script runs fine, and when I get to my Main web, WebHome topic, I want to get startted. However, something is definitely wrong, because all links are wrong. Here's the problem:

I've installed Twiki at http://www.deviousness.com/cgi-bin/twiki/ The bin folder can be found at http://www.deviousness.com/cgi-bin/twiki/bin.

Anyway, when I run the view script I automatically goes to my WebHome topic of course. However, it seems something is wrong with all the links (on any page). For instance, when I want to get Register, the register link points at:

http://www.deviousness.com/TWiki/TWikiRegistration

And this is wrong, because it should point to http://www.deviousness.com/cgi-bin/twiki/bin/view/TWiki/TWikiRegistration.

Because of this problem I'm having, I cannot edit by clicking the links as well.

Anyway, clearly I've been doing something wrong, does anyone know what causes this?

Thanks for your help.

Answer

I looked at http://www.deviousness.com/cgi-bin/twiki/bin/testenv and don't see any obvious problems. You might try changing your $defaultUrlHost to http://www.deviousness.com/cgi-bin/twiki

This will require a change in your $pubUrlPath but why do you have your pub directory in that location anyway? It's still within the viewable http directory. (I know because I tested it.)

Hope that helps and good luck!

No Luck frown

Hey, thanks for your answer!

Well, I tried what you've suggest, but no luck. The links stayed the same.

Anyway, my issue still exists, does anyone have any idea why it does this?

Answer

Are you sure you changed the $defaultUrlHost to http://www.deviousness.com/cgi-bin/twiki? Or did you change it back because in testenv, it shows it as http://www.deviousness.com. If you do change it, then you would also change $pubUrlPath to /pub and $scriptUrlPath to /bin.

My only other thought is that perhaps there's some sort of rewrite script operating in your cgi-bin directory?

Question

Yes, I just set them back. I've set them now as you suggested smile

Anyway, no, it's a clean install which doesn't contain any additions.

So still, my issue remains :(. Anyone with brilliant ideas left ;)?
