hi fr_ you had some question - did you get the answer? [14:19] * SopanShewale (n=sopan@111.125.197.209) Quit (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out)) [15:26] yeah [15:26] i think i figured it out.. was just creating a new topic ending with "Template" :) [15:27] didn't find this in the documentation from the beginning, thanks anyway hmm.... documentation needs to be improved request you to contribute some where on the site - that might be helpful to others thx SopanShewale: hi i got the answer, yes. i can file another ticket at some point is there a suggest perl module for handling auto-publishing remotely? the ones I see are either 1.) old 2.) view-only Im a newbie at all of this. but i just installed TWiki. And i can't get into the configure page. Keep asking me a for a username/pw on your server's shell: htpasswd -c (twikipath)/data/.htpasswd when i first setup told me after creating a user for myself, to edit Main.TWikiAdmingroup i cant get in my configure page geck: what kind of auto-publishing do you need? Hello all! Im a newbie at all this. I've installed TWiki :) But i cannot get into the configuration page. Keeps asking me for a username and password. Not sure what to do. am i missing sumthign? peterthoeny: basically I have some docs here in twiki format that I'd like to get on the server without having to manually post them I could write a WWW::Mech script to do it but that would be a pain :) I'd also like to be able to update these at will so you need to update pages or create new pages? both but, yes :) in older twiki you could simply do that with url, such as: ../twiki/bin/save?text=foo+bar, but this is no longer possible due to security risk you still can do that if you use method=post instead of method=get http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/TWiki/TWikiScripts#save if you have a page with a twiki form you can update form fields via parameter, such as: City=San+Francisco so you need mechanize, curl or the like to update content alternatively, you could dump files in twiki format directly into the twiki/data/Someweb directory on the server that directory could be nfs mounted if needed the twiki engine is forgiving, it does not matter if the page history files is missing hrrm.. does twiki auto csv them or is that not all the... gotcha perfect >:) it will be created the first time someone edits the page via browser so: 1. file without history 2. user edits, modifies and saves page via browser 3. you get two versions for page: r1 = original text of file, r2 = content when page was saved when you dump files watch out for existing pages what if I were to do a ci on the file when I uploaded? i do not recommend that since twiki does other stuff on save, such as call plugin hooks, email change notification etc so another way is to create a small script that runs on the twiki server that does the save via twiki::func api calls http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/TWiki/TWikiFuncDotPm mmm proper pods everywhere I look So,w hat's this publish.pm thing one of our sysadmins sent me? looks like you wrote it i am not aware of a publish.pm wierd, it has (C) 2002 Peter Thoeny on it anyways, going with an rsync method
