[Moin-devel] edit_locking does not work

[Thomas Waldmann]

did you install 1.1 from sourceforge tar/zip archive, or some cvs 
checkout or some other package?

linux / windows?

did you try with defaults (i.e. not specifying edit_locking at all)?

We are soon releasing a 1.2, so if this can be cleared early enough, it 
will get in. We use edit_locking defaults on linuwiki.org and I do get a 
warning from time to time.
