Package: wiki.debian.org Severity: normal As reported:
when I try to create a user account on the Debian wiki which uses a name already taken, I get the following message: This user name already belongs to somebody else. If this is a new account and you need another verification link, try sending another one. "sending another one" links to https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Allwinner?action=newaccount&i=1162379783.5.60584&resend=1 in my case. Going to this page results in an internal server error. I've confirmed this and I can see the problem in the apache logs: [wsgi:error] mod_wsgi (pid=19132): Exception occurred processing WSGI script '/srv/wiki.debian.org/bin/moin.wsgi'.
