SID-00145: Error saving topic in windows

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	4.2.4	Perl version:	5.8.8
Category:	CategoryError	Server OS:	Windows Vista	Last update:	16 years ago

I try to run TWiki under Vista on WAMP system. Everything works fine (search, logins, page viewing) except for saving documents and attaching files (just the same):

this always results in this error:

Error saving topic During save of Main an error was found by the version control system. Please notify your TWiki administrator.

E:/xxx/bin/rcs.exe -i -t-none -kb %FILENAME|F% of .../WebHome/test.png failed:

Go back in your browser and save your changes locally.

Discussion and Answer

In configure, check the path of all the {RCS}{.....Cmd} settings. The path needs to match the actual location of your rcs commands (is it E:/xxx/bin ?).

I am not that familiar on Windows install. May be someone else can help.

Alternatively, instead of RcsWrap try the RcsLite for {StoreImpl}, it is a native Perl implementation of RCS.
