you are able to access the Apache server from the other computer just fine? You could try stopping Apache and running Tiddlywiki on port 80, since you know that's open, to see if the problem persists. On Monday, September 4, 2017 at 12:08:23 PM UTC+10, RichardWilliamSmith wrote

Hi, You have Apache running on port 80 to serve static files. The Tiddlywiki server needs to run as a separate process alongside that, on a different port, and they are accessed as two different services. If you really need to be able to access both services from the same port, I guess you

Hi Jan, I'll just echo what Josiah has said and say that I think you can actually do a better job with tiddlywiki than you could with that library, just because Tiddlywiki already has mechanisms for handling lots of tiny bits of content, knowing what order to put them in and knowing what kind

As far as I can tell this is Node itself crashing (storeHeader is in _http_outgoing.js at this memorable url - https://github.com/nodejs/node/blob/11a2ca29babcb35132e7d93244b69c544d52dfe4/lib/_http_outgoing.js) It would seem Tiddlywiki is creating/allowing something that Node doesn't like.

Hi Herb, Tiddlywiki can be used to generate a static website where each page is in its own file. This is advantageous for the reasons you state and several others. There are basic instructions available http://tiddlywiki.com/static/Generating%2520Static%2520Sites%2520with%2520TiddlyWiki.html
