Question

Hello guys, during twiki configuration, I checked the {UseClientSessions} in the Security tab. Everything went fine until view.pl/TWiki/WebHome was launched. The page threw an error showing that, Can't locate object method "generate_id" via package "CGI::Session::ID::" (perhaps you forgot to load "CGI::Session::ID::"?) at D:/programs/perl/lib/CGI/Session.pm line 74.

Session IDs are not getting generated. Can you guys give me suggestions on what can be done?

This thing has been bugging me for the last 2 days. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I'm guessing that you've not got a fully working install of the CGI::Session CPAN module. depends somewhat on the perl you've installed I guess. (windows can be a pain, which is why I made the TWikiInstaller for windows)

Sven, thanks a lot :-). Just a few minutes ago, I figured out that a few files were missing from the CGI::Session package. I downloaded them from http://search.cpan.org/src/SHERZODR/CGI-Session-4.10/. And thanks a ton for pointing out the installer package. I never knew it existed.
