Question

Hi all,

Since I'm not a twiki guru, I'm not sure whether this is a bug or I went wrong somewhere installing plugins ...

As soon as I add a new edittable in a topic (say TopicFile), the topic version gets freezed forever. I noticed the data/.../TopicFile.txt,v looses write permissions, which may explain. I tried to figure out where in the EditTable.pm I could set or change the file permissions, but did not find. The versionning is still working well with any other page that do not include edittable.

• TWiki version: 01 Feb 2003
• Perl version: 5.6.1
• Web server & version: apache 1.3.27
• Server OS: Linux
• Web browser & version: Mozilla 1.3b
• Client OS: Linux

I also have several plugins installed :

• Default
• KoalaSkin
• TwikiDraw
• SmiliesPlugin
• EditTable
• InterWiki
• SpacedWikiWords
• SpreadSheetPlugin

I will email my testenv output on demand for further informations.

Answer

I can answer my own question :

I just realize I probably misunderstood Twiki versionning : it looks like version numbers are not supposed to change when the topic are consecutively edited by the same user : As soon as I quit my browser and reedit the same topic using another user identity, the version number change as expected (whatever the topic contains, edittable or not).

I probably missed that by reading the docs too fast ...
