Subject: [Moin-user] Installing MoinMoin 1.2.2 at SourceForge.Net Project Web Space
Message-ID: <1088690631.2936.15.camel@localhost>

Hi,

I want to install ASAP MoinMoin 1.2.2 in the web space of a project
hosted at SourceForge.net but i can't get it working.

I've read the so-called HOWTO about installing an obsolete version
(1.0beta) because SF does not support/has Python 2, but that's not
right.
SF currently runs Python 2.2.2 as we can see issuing the python -V
command , so , it should run with no problems.

I've tested the following versions:
	- 1.2.2
	- 1.2.1
	- 1.1

Only the 1.0beta backported to Python 1.5.0 works.

The most strange thing is that when i accessed the 1.2 setup going to:
http://licentia.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi
it said BOO (500 error) and in the shell , by issuing python moin.cgi, i
got the html code of the wiki!

So , it worked but only in the shell environment, not when accessing it
from the web.

I need it urgently and i'm lost , i don't know what's going wrong.

And of course, i don't want to use the obsolete 1.0beta.

Thanks in advance , and , if somebody could help me to install correctly
the wiki , i can give him an invitation to gMail (currently i don't have
invitations because i got my account few days ago, it's
lorenzohgh_at_gmail_dot_com,but when i'll get them i'll invite
him,sure!). :D (i promise!).

Some information that could be interesting:

I want to install the files under /home/groups/l/li/licentia/
the htdocs dir is:
		- ./htdocs/
The wiki dir should be:
		- ./wiki/
The folder where moin.cgi or scripts should reside is:
		- ./cgi-bin/
The folder that static wiki content should go:
		- ./htdocs/wiki/

(I'm just asking for clear instructions for setup a Moin 1.2.2 wiki at
my project web space).

Again, thanks in advance!

Cheers,

Subject: [Moin-user] I hate it when I try to do something weird.
Message-ID: <40E4389C.3090909@cmu.edu>

So, I'm trying to do something apparently bizarre in MoinMoin: redirect 
from inside a page.

Specifically, I'm working on a macro which updates the text of the page 
itself.  Of course, since the page is already loaded and being parsed, 
the on-disk change isn't noticed.  What I've tried to do was to use 
request.http_redirect() to do an actual redirection, but that didn't 
seem to work.

Any pointers (besides "use an include")?

You don't say how you configured Apache, but have you tried doing 
something like:
ScriptAlias /LorenzoWiki /var/www-docs/cgi-bin/moin.cgi

If you do that, then pointing your web browser at
http://licentia.sourceforge.net/LorenzoWiki should do the right thing, 
assuming you've set the values in moin_config.py in that directory to 
point to the correct locations.

I'm talking about a SOURCEFORGE PROJECT WEB SPACE.
So ,i don't have a root account and i can't access the global config for
my VirtualHost.
In adittion , to set a ScriptAlias is not needed, i want just to access 
my wiki by using licentia.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi .

That's not the problem.
The problem is that i can access the wiki (better,i can get the html
source of the generated wiki page) only using python moin.cgi from my
shell , and not from the web browser (so, accessing by the webserver
gets 500 Error ).

First things first: does the shebang line in moin.cgi point to the 
location of a useful python interpreter?

Does accessing it with the ?test parameter work?  Can you get access to 
the web error log for your site (I don't know how SF does their web 
logs)?  Is the file executable?  Can you run *any* CGI from there?

Almost yes :(

Yes.
/usr/bin/python2.2 is the one that works and
/usr/bin/env python works too.

Not, accessing with test parameter says BOO! too.
I can get access , yes, it's a sync log of every SF project (about
100mgbytes or more per log) but i can grep the lines related with my
vhost.

The file has 755 permssions.
At /cgi-bin/ i can run any script, yep!

I'll try (again) to put working a copy and then we can see the errors.
I'll do it now (it will take about 15 minutes, no more).

Thanks for your fast replies :D

Good.

OK, I'm assuming that you have MoinMoin installed in your project space 
somewhere.  That being the case, I assume you've uncommented/edited the 
two lines in moin.cgi so that the MoinMoin package is in your sys.path?

Also, I'm seeing your 500 error, so the end of the error log *should* 
have a backtrace in it.  With that log of that magnitude, you probably 
want to point your web browser at the site, tail -f the log, reload the 
web site, and as soon as you see something resemblin a backtrace fly by, 
kill the tail.

The handler for a form is usually done as an action.  This 
requires that your code consist of two parts, the macro
and the action.  At least this is the way I have done things.

Take a look at this action, which does some page
content manipulation, I believe.
http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/action_2fRenamePage

BTW - I think this is a great idea for a feature.
I have thought of doing this for a while, and using
some sort of system to distinguish the text coming from
different users. (never got around to it, though :(
This feature would allow MoinMoin to be
used as an ad-hoc instant messaging system, but better
because the messages would then be persistent on the 
wiki page.  We do something similar to this
at Sony during conference calls by doing page edits
and then telling the other side to refresh the page.

Subject: [Moin-user] Processors and wikilinks
Message-ID: <1088775029.31199.39.camel@angua.localnet>

[This may be more a developers issue, but I'm not on that list as yet]

I am attempting to get pages which have the output of a Processor on
them and also have WikiLinks within that output.  Modifying the
processor to output all wiki parsable output would be an option if that
is possible from a Processor.  I'd appreciate any hints as to how togo
about this.

To give you an idea of what I want to end up with, I want to have an
event calendar with links in it.  The Calendar.py processor at
  http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinCalendarExample
is great at giving me a calendar display of the form that I want, but
the text appearing in the calendar boxes is literal - I can't use
WikiWords or other forms of linking within them.  In this case the
Calendar is going to be the index most people use to jump off to the
event pages, so links here would be really useful...

A fixed per-day target - as seen in MonthCalendar
  http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MonthCalendar
  http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/OliverGraf_2fMonthCalendar
is not what I am aiming at - its very easy for me to produce data as a
list of dates, where as this method, whilst more flexible in many ways,
would need *lots* of clicking and editing of pages.... especially as
many events are multiday ones.  Its also less good for people seeing
whats on at a glance.

Cheers

Message-ID: <BD0D1A49.9EC8%wilson@visi.com>

Hi everyone,

I'm working on getting MoinMoin running on my Debian (testing) server. I'm
using the Debian binary and trying mod_python for the first time. I'm trying
to combine the instructions found in the README.Debian file that accompanied
the Debian package and the help page found at
http://moinmaster.wikiwikiweb.de/HelpOnInstalling/ApacheWithModPython

It looks like I'm having a problem with .htaccess because when I try to
visit my wiki, I'm getting 403ed and told that I don't have permission to
access /wiki/ on the server.

Has anyone installed MoinMoin in this configuration and would be willing to
offer a suggestion? I tried setting the default in httpd.conf to
"AllowOverride All", but that didn't change anything.

-Tim

The Apache docs recommend not using .htaccess files if you have
authority to change httpd.conf. Also, use of <Location> rather than
<Directory> is a better choice because you are not protecting files,
your are authorizing the mod_python program.

I don't use Debian, but the following works for me under both
Windows/XP and Mandrake Linux 9.2.

Changing from a working CGI wiki to a ModPython version
requires (1) installing ModPython and (2) commenting out a
ScriptAlias and adding a LoadModule and <Location> tag to httpd.conf:
   #ScriptAlias /mywiki         "C:/somedir/mywiki/moin.cgi" 
   LoadModule python_module modules/mod_python.so
   <Location /mywiki>
       SetHandler python-program
       PythonPath "['C:/somedir/mywiki/']+sys.path"
       PythonHandler MoinMoin.request::RequestModPy.run
       PythonDebug On
   </Location>

I'm not sure if that's comparable to a mod_python config or not. I'm
unfamiliar with mod_python at this point, but it seems like the mod_python
engine is called by the .htaccess file that I put in the wiki directory I
created under my virtual host's root directory.

It also appears that to use mod_python requires different approaches
depending on whether or not you're using a "broken" mod_python (which I am
judging by the version number in Debian's testing tree).

Another question, I suppose, is whether or not mod_python is really
necessary on a lightly used MoinMoin instance. It looks like a standard cgi
approach is easier to set up.

Subject: [Moin-user] suitable for driving backend applications?
Message-ID: <1089301666.2423.12.camel@pc>

I am completely new to moin moin other than having used it a bit and
edited some pages.  I have never set it up or developed anything with it
yet.

We have a moin moin wiki set up (by somebody else) and I have been
tasked with developing a new web application that ideally will fit
within the wiki infrastructure.

Can moin moin be used to develop applications?  For example, can I
create forms that take input and process that input on the back-end in
any similar fashion to using HTML and CGI?  Or is moin moin just
targeted to creating collaborative documentation?

If it can indeed be used to develop web applications, where can I find
more information on that aspect of it.  Sample applications, API
documentation, etc.  Anything would be helpful.

Thanx,
b.

Attached is a simple trouble ticketing application I wrote last week. 
To enable it, drop this file in plugin/action and link it (or copy it) 
to plugin/macro.

Using it is pretty simple.  On the "summary page", add some text that 
looks like this:
= Open =
[[Ticket(open)]]
= Closed =
[[Ticket(closed)]]
= New =
[[Ticket(form)]]

Filling in the form and submitting will create a new ticket (which will 
show up in the appropriate location).  There are probably more elegant 
ways of doing this, but it's my first real piece of Wiki development. 
In any event, this "appliation" is simply a way to create content in a 
structured manner.  If you are interested in dynamically generated 
content, then you'll be wanting to write a processor, or perhaps to move 
on to something like Twisted or Zope.

Brian,

Does this require python 2.3.  I get the initial form when putting in 
the code below, but after entering in a ticket I get the following under 
the open section:

Hi!

In a wiki that I am setting up, I have changed the front page of the site 
using page_front_page.

By default Moin outputs index,nofollow for all pages other than TitleIndex or 
FrontPage. Now that I have changed the front page, how do I make moin 
generate correct meta tags(index,follow) for this new frontpage?

Modify wikiutil.py, about line 894 to read:

# if it is a special page, index it and follow the links - we do it for
# the original, english pages as well as for (the possible modified)
# frontpage:
elif pagename in ['FrontPage', page_front_page, config.page_front_page,
                   page_title_index, ]:
     user_head += '''<meta name="robots" content="index,follow">\n'''

Of course, keep the original indenting of the wikiutil.py source at the 
same level.

This now catches "FrontPage" and whatever you set config.page_front_page 
  to - including a maybe existing translation for it (although I don't 
know if google uses something different than english for its requests).

Similar thing for title index, but only one version (as this should 
contain only one and the same macro anyway).

Hope this helps, this will be also in moin 1.2.3.

Hi,

if I change the language settings for my user to german, I get the
following message when I visit the start page:

/!\Hierher umgeleitet von Seite "StartSeite"

If I then click on the link "StartSeite" I get the following message:

<!>Diese Seite wird umgeleitet auf "FrontPage"

This is somewhat anyoning.

moinmoin is a fresh install, I just edited the start page and changed the
language settings.

Any ideas what I have made wrong?

Dear Mike,

each user could set in it's configuration
~ "Remember login information forever"

In the moin configuration the wiki admin could set the lifetime of the
cookie.

I prefer the users settings.

bilbo$ cat /web/trip.natalian.org/.htaccess

Any now my URLs generated by moin are UGLY.

It used to be:

Now it's:
http://trip.natalian.org/moin.cgi/FrontPage

I guess I need to fix it with rewrite voodoo magic. Anyone know some?

Yes,


vhost means to setup an alias name for the computer and then you could
write a configuration in the vhost definition for moin.
You could setup a different document root on each vhost but if the wiki
is already installed this makes problems. You could solve this by a
redirection of the page by the server. Write a simple index.html file in
the document root of the vhost.

At the moment we have some vhosts konfiguration for apache 1.3.x

Lets tell more so we could help.

As of right now, there are no acls specifically for attachments.

This might be something that would be good to add though, maybe even
specific ACLs for each attachment.  This would probably have to wait for a
rewrite on the Storage engine though.

Just my .02 cents.

Allowing attaching files is a quite small risk as long as you don't 
serve the attached files directly by your web server and allow executing 
cgi scripts (attached by a malicous attacker).

As long as you run the standard moin configuration + allowing AttachFile 
action, the worst thing that can happen is that somebody uploads many 
and/or big files. Not a big problem usually, everybody can delete them 
again, so soft security applies.

> if enabled for public, isnt there an acl statement for attach privileges?

They are currently using the same read/write/delete ACLs as the page 
they are attached to.

If we would find enough reason to handle them separately, we could do 
it. But I currently see no reason, why we should do that.

Everything under data/.

If you are low on backup capacity, you could leave out the data/cache/ 
directory. If you are not, better save that, too, as it could take a 
looooong time for moin to regenerate some of those infos, although it is 
possibly.

Actually it is a good risk in hosting environments when the disk quota is 
limited - can server as an easy DoS method by making any additions impossible 
unless somebody with delte privileges comes along, hunts down and deletes teh 
offending attachment.

This does make sense for now, though.

Actually, I wanted to have a wiki in which articles are written by a team, and 
opened for comments to the public. Only the team members/authors can edit the 
main article and /or add suitable images if necessary. Maybe too much of a 
specific case.

Message-ID: <200407170314.25801.sandip@lug-delhi.org>

I know this might not be liked by many people but I had to ask this. Would it 
be against the wiki culture too much, if we incorporate user email 
confirmations(like mailman lists) before we activate an user account?

Yes, it is an additional pain for new users, but it would make the user 
accounts seem more auditable(?). It would be good to know, that an user 
associated with a comment does in fact exists behind a legitimate email 
address.

If one had to incorporate this into the main moin code, how should one go 
about it? Could this be added as a plugin or something? 

Thanks,
  Sandip

Perhaps you want to look at the Blog actions to get some ideas? 
Basically, if you give your team read/write and world read-only, and 
install a Blog action/form, then you could have public commentary on an 
otherwise read-only page.

Subject: [Moin-user] Trouble picking up moin_config.py
Message-ID: <20040717110334.50e341ed@debian>

I'm experiencing a strange problem and I've run out of
ideas. It seems that my moin_config.py isn't being picked
up when moin.cgi runs. The <title> tag still says "An
Unnamed MoinMoin Wiki" even through I've changed this in
moin_config.py.

Any changes are not reflected in moin_config.py. I've added
sys.path.append('/home/USERNAME/wiki') (obviously, USERNAME
is my username on the server). I've checked the permissions
of the directory and the file, and they both match every
other scripts permissions (755). This is an install into my
home directory, with version 1.2.2.  

The wiki works fine, saving and serving pages with no
problem at all. 

Ultimately, I'm trying to get AttachFile to work, but having
access to the config file would be nice. When this is done,
some ACL stuff would be nice too, but without it, I'm kind
of stuck. 

Is there anything else I need to check for? 

Thanks

I'm having a problem with a wiki-spammer junk to my TitleIndex

Is there a way to to make just this one page non-editable?
(Short of editing the MoinMoin code.)

I tried changing the owner and permissions in the file system
for the page, but MoinMoin just changed them back (I think
it removed the page and added it again.)

I'm using MoinMoin 1.0 - is this something that would be
available in more recent versions?

Thanks,

I deal with these problems by creating an admin group, and making all critical 
pages (like frontpage, titleindex, etc.) not editable by people outside this 
group. 

Ofcourse for any such page, i create a comments subpage, and give people edit 
access to it, and include it in the main page so that their content is still 
displayed on these main pages.

I want the FrontPage of my site to be editable only by members of AdminGroup, 
and FrontPage/Comments to be editable by any logged in user.

For FrontPage I have set:
#acl All:read

For FrontPage/Comments:
- I first did not set any acl
- Set the following acl:
   #acl Default
- Set the acl:
  #acl Trusted:read,write All:read

In all these cases, any logged in user, who is NOT part of AdminGroup, is 
unable to edit FrontPage/Comments.

Where am I going wrong?

I got the problem now. I should be using Known rather than Trusted. 

For some reason, the moin CHANGES file has far more information than 
HelpOnAccessLists. The latter doesnt mention anywhere that Trusted refers to 
HTTP AUTH authenticated user, and Known refers to moin form-based 
authentication/account user.

Then names are not that intuitive for me. YMMV.

Message-ID: <200407200319.11211.sandip@lug-delhi.org>

The rightsidebar theme plugin, always gives the URL of the current page for 
the site name at the top. The expected behavior is to go to the frontpage of 
the site when you click the sitename at the top. The problem can be solved 
simply replacing line 40 of the file rightsidebar.py (moin 1.2.2)

Original:
 html ='<div id="banner">\n<a id="bannertext" 
href="%(script_name)s">%(site_name)s</a>\n</div>\n' % d

Modified:
 html ='<div id="banner">\n<a id="bannertext" 
href="%(page_front_page)s">%(site_name)s</a>\n</div>\n' % d



In short just change "script_name" with "page_front_page" there.

You could change it to r/o in the file system.

But I doubt that would help much, next day will come another spammer and 
spam all other pages.

Normally it says "immutable" for ro pages. Maybe there was a bug in the 
version you use.

Yes, quite some stuff in 1.2.2:
  * page ACLs
  * MoinMoin:SecurityPolicy has a content based spammer filter

Possibly using the Include macro, by including another page, but
otherwise I don't think so. Lists are line separated and so are tables
so they don't mix. You might add your own macro, e.g.

|| [[List(Item 1, Item2 , Item3)]] || blah || blah ||

Subject: [Moin-user] rightsidebar theme
Message-ID: <000a01c47232$5c935ff0$6b8eb8d9@netvista>

Hi all,
recently, I installed moinmoin in an intranet (w2k iis ie6) without
any problems. I prefer rightsidebar theme, because I am right handed
and short lines are easier to read.
There is one problem, I got no solution for: The theme does not
display icons of the iconbar (that's not really necessary) and
credits and pagetrail, what I'm missing most. There is code for all
parts in rigthsidebar.py and in the ccs file, but it's not displayed
on the sreen.
Is it a bug in the theme code or a problem of IE6.0 ?
Can anybody be helpful?

Subject: [Moin-user] MoinMoin acl for closed user group
Message-ID: <41039A1E.7010807@onlinehome.de>

Hi experts,

i'm using moinmoin to set up a closed wiki for my development group.
I have read about acl's but still don't get a picture on how to do this 
the right way.

Could someone explain how to do this the right way please.

What i know for now:
If you use Authentification on apache, apache will hand over the 
username to the wiki.
Can you explain how this would be done? Could it be done?
Another way would be read access only for the login page, so that all 
other users can't
see the other pages. Users have to log in to see the wiki-pages.

Hints on the best way to do it (and how) would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
    Uwe

Dear all

We are interested in a small computer device to run as wiki server.
Did someone has tried an embedded linux system e.g. 
[http://www.linuxdevices.com/products/PD7500373697.html Intrinsyc's CerfCube 
1110] already as wiki server.

What is your experience ?

I didn't try, but I would definitely take a machine with faster CPU 
(>=400MHz) and more RAM (>=128MB).

If you have too little RAM, you might have trouble getting python and a 
webserver to run (or to run acceptably fast).

With too little CPU power, operations like RecentChanges could be quite 
slow. For normal pages, the new caching (WASP) and a persistent server 
helps a lot, of course, but not everything can be cached.

Also maybe rather take an x86 compatible CPU or you might have 
additional platform specific trouble. Maybe Transmeta or VIA C3.

Hi moiners,

I added moin to my office intranet.  We have a bunch of homemade
libraries without documentation.  I can write a script to make a page
for each one with the source code, and then one table of contents page
to link to each function, but how can I add these pages to the wiki
without manually adding each one?

In general, how to import a bunch of files into a wiki?

Thanks!

This is just a question HOW you logon. If you already have apache auth 
set up and you want to continue to use those accounts, you can enable 
moin (setting auth_http_enabled or similar, see HelpOnConfiguration).

Be aware that your http auth user names have to match your wiki user 
account names.

Yes. Create a group called ValidUsersGroup and put everybody in who is 
allowed to see your stuff.

Then use:

acl_rights_default = "ValidUserGroup:read,write,delete,revert All:"

On the FrontPage and UserPreferences, put "#acl All:read" so that they 
can at least read the hint how to get an account, and logon.

Anybody can create his own account then, but only if you put him/her 
onto ValidUserGroup (of course you can protect that page by more 
restrictive ACLs than the default, if you want/need), he can really make 
use of it.

Subject: [Moin-user] moin, central users, and REMOTE_USER
Message-ID: <w528yd5b4m9.fsf@lame.message.id>

I'm looking at using moin at my office, where I have a centralized
user environment. Currently my users authenticate to apache, which
sets REMOTE_USER for the various webapps. I'd like to integrate moin
cleanly into this.

In an ideal world, moin would trust the REMOTE_USER setting, and use
it as the username. Users would never see a name or password
field. And moin could even assume their email is REMOTE_USER at domain. 

However, I'm finding this isn't nearly supported, and I'm not sure how
hard it'd be to get there. The only REMOTE_USER related setting I've
found is auth_http_enabled, and I'm not sure that does much of what I
want. I think I may need to patch userform.py, though there's also a
reasonable looking post at: (look for REMOTE_USER)

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=624&max_rows=25&style=nested&viewmonth=200208

Has anyone implemented this functionality, and is there any chance it
will show up in moin? Or is this pretty much something people patch
and maintain on their own?

Write the files that you are creating to the data/text directory where 
your moin is installed.  Any file in that directory is automatically 
searched when moin goes to find a page... doesn't matter if the page was 
created from the web or not.  It's just a text file.  Just make sure 
that you name them in CamelCase or you'll have to escape everything to 
get the automatic links to work.

Subject: [Moin-user] anchors and title
Message-ID: <41075671.5020808@infomaniak.ch>

hi,

Is there a way to automaticaly create anchors in function of title and 
subtitles.

let me explain by example : )

imagine that you have a page with the following

= title_1 =
== title_1_1 ==
== title_1_2 ==
= title_2=
== title_2_1 =
=== title_2_1_1 ==


an then in will create automatically the following or something which 
will have the same caracteristics !
[[Anchor(title_1)]]
= title_1 =
[[Anchor(title_1__title_1_1)]]
== title_1_1 ==
[[Anchor(title_1__title_1_2)]]
== title_1_2 ==
and so on

so in that way title will be tied to anchors : |

Message-ID: <000901c474d9$e06c84b0$6e8eb8d9@netvista>

Hi all,

sorry for beeing unpatient. I tried hard and found out, that there
is simply no code in rightsidebar.py for displaying pagetrail and
credits. After adding the code similar to classic.py, it works fine.
visited pages are now diplayed in the "site" section and credits in
the footer.

Having done that, an aditional problem occured: long pagenames
expand the sidebar to the left, so that parts of content are hidden.

overflow:hidden; within #sidebar in the screen.css solved that
problem.

So, beeing on the run, I set right_margin of body to 180px, margins
within content to 10px, width of #sidebar to 180px, margins within
#sidebar to 10px, exept margin bottom to 5px.

style = 97% instead of 100% in PageEditor resolves the hiding of
text while editing.

Now it looks really nice and works fine.

Oh, I forgot: set the background color of #sidebar to #66ccff

moin!

Hi,

I installed MoinMoin on my home-machine and my friends like to use it,

So I need a cheap webhoster for MoinMoin, with SSH-Logins and maybe

Do I need a root-server or are the hoster out there providing such
offers?

Does anybody know good and cheap root-servers in Europe or USA?

Is the slowness a result of a lack of bandwidth, or processing power? 
If its processing power, then you might consider running MoinMoin with 
Twisted. It made a big difference in speed on my 300MHz machine.

Freeshell.org will allow you to run MoinMoin if you pay a one time 
donation of $36. You'll also get:

  - 100MB home, 100MB web, 100MB mail
  - access to multiple subdomains
  - telnet, ssh, scp, ftp, ytalk, irc, gcc, lisp, perl, python, ruby, 
php, etc.
  - access to your own UNIX shell account.

Running Moin 1.2.3, Apache, Win2000.

Working fine except for the projection screen in slideshows - it is

other Moin sites. 

Some sites work fine (for example,
http://openmcl.clozure.com/openmcl-wiki/WikiCourse/BasicIntroduction)
others show the same behavior
(http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/SlideShow). I'm afraid there's something
