Problem with Instiki and Windows

Hi all,

Ruby 1.8.2-7a
Instiki 0.9.1
Windows XP Pro

I tried running Instiki on my Windows XP box. It seemed to start
fine, but as soon as I try to fire up a web browser and view
"http://localhost:2500", I get a bunch of spewage:

you have to manually create the

storage/2500

or

storage\2500

directories under your install, so looks like you need to make

C:/ruby/src/instiki-0.9.1/storage/
C:/ruby/src/instiki-0.9.1/storage/2500/

this same bug exists on linux...

cheers.

I had the same problem on Linux. If I recall correctly, I fixed it by
just creating the storage directory.

Hi all,

Ruby 1.8.2-7a
Instiki 0.9.1
Windows XP Pro

I tried running Instiki on my Windows XP box. It seemed to start
fine, but as soon as I try to fire up a web browser and view
"http://localhost:2500", I get a bunch of spewage:

This is a known bug in instiki 0.9.1: it fails to create the storage
repository. There was some other common bug IIRC (not sure) but I can't
remember which one it was

Please find attached an extract of the patch I applied for the RPA
package; maybe you can adapt it (there's a couple RPA specific things
there, but should be easy to spot).

You might also want to try to
rpa install instiki
directly; that will install madeleine, bluecloth, redcloth and rubyzip
automatically. Last time I tried it on win32 (XP) it worked fine.
[If you haven't got rpa-base installed, it might not be worth it, but
it's available at http://rpa-base.rubyforge.org just in case]

PS - No offense, but I hate using a wiki to post bug reports, so
that's why I'm posting here.

There were some talks in #rubyonrails about creating a bug tracker in
rails. Instiki's site might provide that too in the future

patch (2.87 KB)
