[ANN] Instiki 0.11.0 - ActiveRecord Forever

Dear all,

If you thought Instiki was a dead project, you were right. Since I’ve got a day job that doesn’t suck
(Official Ruby Zealot of ThoughtWorks Canada), my motivation to do open source greatly sufferred :slight_smile:

But… but… but! Here is Instiki 0.11.0, and in this version Instiki is (finally!) moving to ActiveRecord backend
and (finally!) has the File Upload feature.

Instiki is a Wiki Clone http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?WikiWikiClones that’s so easy to set up and so pretty to look at,
you’Íl be wondering whether this is a real wiki at all.

It is also the most frequently downloaded end-user application on RubyForge, surpassed only by Rails, One Click Installer and RubyGems.

Changes in this version:

SQL-based backend (ActiveRecord)
File uploads (finally)
Upgraded to Rails 1.0.0
Replaced internal link generator with routing
Fixed --daemon option
Removed Rubygem and native OS X distributions
Improved HTML diff
More accurate “See Changes”

The released files are available at http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=186
Online documentation is at http://instiki.org.
Source code and bug tracker are at http://dev.instiki.org

README at http://svn.instiki.org/instiki/tags/release-0.11.0/README contains instructions on how to install this version
and migrate data from Instiki 0.10 or Instiki-AR beta.

Especially big thanks to Rick Olson aka technoweenie for his help with porting Instiki to ActiveRecord.
Big thanks to DHH and Co. for Rails, to Why the Lucky Stiff for RedCloth, and everybody who sent me patches and otherwise
prodded me to keep going for that extra bit of motivation.

Best regards,
Alexey Verkhovsky

Got this working today without too much hoopla, but how do you enable
file uploading??? I found a ref on the wiki, but when I tried it, I got
"File uploads are blocked by the webmaster".

TIA,
Keith (w/apologies in advance if this was the wrong place to ask...:slight_smile:

Nevermind - fixed it. Part of the problem turns out to be that the web
password was lost when I upgraded. Had to hack the db to get it working,
and then the changes I made stuck.
