Hello all together!

I have written a second type of search; a search that looks inside of attached htm files for a requested string. Now, I user the typical search-template for printing the results on the screen. But I have problems to find out, which user modified the files the last time.

To look at all files, I user the perl-function

File::Find

in the "pub"-directory. For htm files with the requested content, I save topic and filename. Then, I want to get the username from the files which stands in the meta-information, so I call

TWiki::Store::getRevisionInfo

with the parameters

($session->{store}, $web, $topic, undef, $_)

. From this function, I should expect this values:

( $date, $user, $rev, $comment )

where $user is a user object (Documentation). Now, I have an object as it would be if I created it with

$user = TWiki::User::new(...)

, right? (I expect my error to be here.) So far so good. When I want to call

$user->WikiName()

, I get the error message

TWiki detected an internal error - please check your TWiki logs and webserver logs for more information.

Can't locate object method "WikiName" via package "BaseUserMapping_666" (perhaps you forgot to load "BaseUserMapping_666"?)

. I searched in the TWiki web, the Support web and in google for "BaseUserMapping", but could not find any tips for my situation.

PS: All other functions work - I get the correct date and the correct revision, but if I print $user only "BaseUserMapping_666". I read TWiki04x03.TWiki::Users::BaseUserMapping, but could not find any helpful tips also.
