BUT -- are you restarting the server after you make the .tid ? You have to 
restart the server. AFAIK the server only loads the tid files when it first 
starts. After that it works from browser memory. 

Also, what directory are you launching from? In your example, you need to 
be in the /home/sherab/ folder when executing the tiddlywiki server command.

Good luck!
