Hi Team,

After migrating the TWiki to a new server I keep getting the following software error:

Software error:

mkdir /var/www/html/twiki/working: File exists at /var/www/html/twiki/lib/CPAN/lib//CGI/Session/Driver/file.pm line 34

For help, please send mail to the webmaster (root@localhost), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.

Thanks, Madhuri

Discussion and Answer

Not sure, Make sure directory /var/www/html/twiki/working/tmp exists and is owned by the webserver user & group apache:apache.

Also, make sure TWiki is configured properly in Apache, use the ApacheConfigGenerator. And after that, run TWiki's configure script before you try to access the view script. Follow the TWikiInstallationGuide.
