SID-00088: Can't locate object method using UploadToTWikiAddOn

Hi,

Sorry if this is something obvious - I type:

./uploadtotwiki.pl -l SteveJones /u/stevej/hal.log http://cadweb.bri.st.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/SteveJones

And I get:

Can't locate object method "requests_redirectable" via package "UploadToTWiki::UserAgent" at ./uploadtotwiki.pl line 81.

I do have LWP installed, and I've tried modifying the first line of the addon to point to this using -I

Any help is appreciated.

Steve.

Discussion and Answer

Your TWiki site probably uses template login and redirects to a login screen. I believe this add-on works only with Apache login. It would be cool if you could extend this add-on for template login.

Hi Peter. No, we are using apache login - LoginManager = TWiki::Client::ApacheLogin, and apache pops up its own login dialog box for users' username and password details, checked against our corporate LDAP server.

Any clues?

The message Can't locate object method requests_redirectable is an indication that your TWiki tries to redirect when uploadtotwiki.pl calls TWiki. The upload script does not handle redirects. You either need to enhance the upload script to manage redirects, or find out and eliminate the redirect in your TWiki.

Peter, where would I look for such a redirect? Would this be in configure, or in my httpd.conf or somewhere else? Sorry if this is a dumb question.

httpd.conf is a good start. Watch the URL bar when manually attaching a file, or sniff the http traffic.
