Question

I'm upgrading a 4.0.5 installation to 4.1.2. I've ported all the content in data/ and pub/ over to the new installation, except for TWiki/ in both directories, as explained in the upgrade guide.

The content itself looks okay on the topic pages, except none of the images embedded into topics are displayed (even though they show up as attachments), and the entire left menu is missing on every topic (except in the TWiki web). The only thing displayed in the left-hand column is the name of the web in a colored background; everything beneath it is blank.

Environment

TWiki version: TWikiRelease04x01x02
TWiki plugins: DefaultPlugin, EmptyPlugin, InterwikiPlugin
Server OS: Linux RHEL4u5
Web server: Apache 2.0.52
Perl version: 5.8.5
Client OS: Mac OS X 1.4.10
Web Browser: Firefox 2
Categories: Installation

ALERT! If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

Please check that each web has a topic named WebLeftBar.

Not showing up of images might be a sign that the webserver does not have permission to read the files, so check ownership as well. See if you can access the url of the image (or css file) in the browser (look into the html source for the urls).

Exactly right, Arthur; thank you! I'd copied apache-owned files over as root, and of course they became root's files. Changing ownership back to apache (chown -R apache:apache .) did the trick.

Thank you.
