Question

I get: Create Web Access Denied You do not have permission to create new TWiki webs.

I don't know how to make a web. I used the form, I've tried many things. I get no web hits, so I think this must be documented somewhere, but I just don't understand how. In older versions you'd just create a directory.

Everything else seems to work, and the testenv shows nothing wrong. Am I just missing or misunderstanding some obvious directions somewhere? Seems like a pretty common thing (creating a web).

Environment

TWiki version: TWiki20030201
TWiki plugins: Default/Standard
Server OS: Mandrake Linux 9.1
Web server: Apache 1.3.26
Perl version: 5.8.0
Client OS: Linux/Windows
Web Browser: Mozilla/Explorer

Answer

You still can create webs the old way, e.g. by duplicating the data/_default directory.

If you are using the web-interface you need to be part of the TWikiAdminGroup group, or whatever group is defined in the ALLOWWEBMANAGE setting in your TWikiPreferences. Make sure that authentication works.
