SID-00868: EasyTimelinePlugin Error

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	4.2.0	Perl version:	5.8.8
Category:	EasyTimelinePlugin	Server OS:	Ubuntu	Last update:	15 years ago

Dear,

is this project yet active? I installed the EasyTimelinePlugin on my TWiki 4.2.0 manually because through configure it fails.

when I go to its page I get:

"TWiki detected an internal error - please check your TWiki logs and webserver logs for more information. Can't call method "sysCommand" on an undefined value"

looking into \twiki\data\warn*.txt I see:

Discussion and Answer

The project is quite active, see BlogEntry201006x1. I have not used the EasyTimelinePlugin, so I can't comment on it.

The Plugins.EasyTimelinePlugin is now updated. Please install and try again.
