Hi All:

I have been setting up the informal wiki on a vx32 maching running
on my desktop.

I just set up a sample wiki according to the instructions on the plan9
wiki and i see the following behavior.

I am able to edit and make changes to existing  wiki pages.

When i try to create a new page it creates a new directory for it in
/mnt/wiki but the pages are not copied into it. I get this error message
trying to create a page 'foobar'

----------
Object not found
The object /wiki/sample/foobar/werror.html does not exist on this server.

errstr: '/usr/web/wiki/sample/foobar' file does not exist
uri host:
header host: localhost:7000
actual host: who cares
---------------

looking in /mnt/wiki i see /mnt/wiki/foobar but there are no files
under it.

here are a few directory listing since it does seem to be a permission
problem.

term% ls -l /mnt/wiki

Here is the script i wrote to start the wiki and httpd.

#!/bin/rc

wikifs -p 666 -s wiki.sample  -a tcp!*!wiki /sys/lib/wiki
mount -b /srv/wiki.sample /usr/web/wiki/sample
ip/httpd/httpd -a tcp!*!7000

Thanks in advance for help ;-)

I think you need the mount in /lib/namespace.httpd
since for security reasons httpd becomes none
and with a limited namespace

I put the mount in /lib/namespace.httpd and i am getting the same
results. When i try to create test2 i get this result on the web
browser.

---------------
Object not found
The object /wiki/sample/test2/werror.html does not exist on this server.

errstr: '/usr/web/wiki/sample/test2' file does not exist
uri host:
header host: localhost:7000
actual host: who cares
--------------

looking in /mnt/wiki i see this

term% ls -l /mnt/wiki
d-r-xr-xr-x M 36 wiki wiki 0 Dec 31 14:52 /mnt/wiki/foo
d-r-xr-xr-x M 36 wiki wiki 0 Dec 31 14:52 /mnt/wiki/foobar

d-r-xr-xr-x M 36 wiki wiki 0 Dec 31 14:52 /mnt/wiki/wiki_syntax

looking further i see this when i test a know good wiki directory.

term% ls -l /mnt/wiki/sandbox
--r--r--r-- M 36 wiki wiki 0 Dec 30 21:24 /mnt/wiki/sandbox/.httplogin
d-r-xr-xr-x M 36 wiki wiki 0 Apr  9  2002 /mnt/wiki/sandbox/1018330739

--r--r--r-- M 36 wiki wiki 0 Dec 30 21:24 /mnt/wiki/sandbox/werror.txt
term%

When i check one of the files i tried to create through the web
interface i get this:

term% ls -l /mnt/wiki/test2
ls: /mnt/wiki/test2: '/mnt/wiki/test2' file does not exist


I'm a bit puzzled.
