SID-01441: Server or TWiki Error trying to access Configure

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	5.1.1	Perl version:	5
Category:	CategoryInstallation	Server OS:	Debian on Dreamhost	Last update:	14 years ago

I started up a second Twiki Web site using 5.1.1. I was succesful on the first one. My second site works except when I try to access "Configure" I get the below server error even though lib/LocalSite.cfg has permission 644 and bin/configure has permission 555. I don't know if this is Dreamhost generated error or TWiki. The 404 error which is part of the message below is a TWiki error. My user name (admin) and password are correct when asked for it. Can you just point me in the right direction to clear rhis error.

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@examplePLEASENOSPAM.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Discussion and Answer

Check the apache error log, it will tell you more details. Permissions can be an issue on some shared hosts. Try 755 for dirs.
