Hi- It's Daryl here, and I have indeed started working on instiki. My first task was bug #270, "Export Errors", in which instiki, when *not* running via Webrick blows up when you click on the "Export" link on the front page.
Here is what I have found: The offending line is in export.rhtml, here it is: <% if OPTIONS[:pdflatex] && @web.markup == :textile %> The problem is that "OPTIONS" is set in script/server, so that if you start instiki using anything other than webrick you get an error. The OPTIONS are the command-line options passed to Webrick on start. I use Mongrel, so I was seeing the error myself. I could try to fix it by getting the command-line options from the other servers (don't know how yet), or just removing the condition, but I would propose that instead of being a command line option, the setting of whether or not you support output to pdf and/or latex be wiki settings that could be set via the "Edit Web" page. I guess this could be a web-by-web setting, though it seems more like a wiki-wide setting to me. What do others think? -- Daryl On 6/28/06 8:23 PM, "John Whitley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all, > > Sorry to be so quiet lately; things are happening with Instiki, but I > haven't been writing about them much lately.
