Question

After a successful installation of the lates TWiki beta and several PlugIns everything was fine until I tried to install the ActionTrackerPlugIn (including Time-modules-2003-1126 from CPAN).
And now I get the following error message for all pages:

---

TWiki Installation Error
Template file view.tmpl not found or template directory /srv/twiki/templates not found.
Check the $templateDir variable in TWiki.cfg.

---

First I checked the templates - ok.
Second I checked the settings with testenv - ok.
Third I checked the warning.txt and found:

Does anybody know this problem and how can I fix it?

Answer

You have a relative path for libraries. Loading of libs can fail if the current directory gets changed by a Plugin that gets initialized beforehand. Set an absolute path in your twiki/bin/setlib.cfg for the TWiki libs and you should be fine.

I do not come that far. The only page I can call is bin/testenv
