new project, /trac/wiki was fine - added files now errors

[byrd.dave@…]

I apologize, as noob. I searched for 2 days for all keywords in error message but found nothing.

I loaded up trac, built the SVN repository, logged in and it worked great, got normal intro page and empty 'browse source','timeline',milestone','view tickets' as expected.

I made first deposit to repository (upload from WindowsXP via TortoiseSVN and now I get error on wiki homepage. everything else seems to work, just no wiki or TracGuide - not a big deal, just worried something else might break down the road.

tickets, browsesource, timeline, milestones all OK, but everything within trac/wiki/* fails

here is message:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Oddly, on reviewing code via /trac/wiki?hdfdump=1, it jumps to EOM despite having full normal page stuff. redacted hdfdump is attached

hdfdump for #6203

Quite strange indeed. Can you show us your file /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/trac/wiki/web_ui.py, from line 459 to 466?

req.hdf['wiki.attach_href'] = attach_href should actually be on line 465, so I suspect there's an extra line in there that replaces req with something funny ;-)

[Christian Boos]

No code shown, no fix ;-)
