peterd Hello DokuWiki folks, I'm a new Linux user (though have been working w/ PCs for a very long time). I've installed DokuWiki on a new release of Ubuntun Dapper. I've switched the template to the Wikipedia lookalike. On my first create I get an error: writing /var/www/dokuwiki/data/pages/wiki/copyright.txt.lock failed I'm going to assume this is because I'm still not used to the various permission settings required by Linux and Linux programs. Peter REVISION: ok, maybe it's not permissions. I'm thinking now I just haven't completed the general configuration. Will keep trying...
patc Did you find out the cause? We moved our wiki to a new server, same problem. Don't see any permissions issues.
benpollinger Is it a PHP safemode issue? I've had similar errors on hosts where UID checking was set to GID (or was it not set?) The main splitbrain wiki has various problems/solutions relating to this. Good luck! Ben
chi I think you need to check your permissions again. /data/pages/wiki is not writeable by your webserver. chmod 777 /data/pages/wiki or better chown <webservers-username>:<webservers-groupname> /data/pages/wiki should help.
