Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	5.1.1	Perl version:	v5.10.1
Category:	WebPermissionsPlugin	Server OS:	CentOS 6.2 kernel 2.6.32-220.7.1	Last update:	13 years ago

Using TWiki 5.1.1 and 'bcd2d26a6c60d1de91e9abec33620dc6 ../WebPermissionsPlugin.gz' I get an error trying to save Topic ACLs, yet it appears to get applied. In the GUI I see:

---

Error saving topic During save of LabStuff an error was found by the version control system. Please notify your TWiki administrator.

permissions action saved Go back in your browser and save your changes locally.

and in the Apache Error log, I get:

I get nothing in the TWiki warn*.txt log, but the following in log*.txt:

Permissions look good throughout the tree. So, what do you think? Version control seems to be working fine on normal topics.

This is now fixed, among other little issues. You can update our plugin.
