+# Excellent - how do I translate a TWiki site?
+
+I just discovered ikiwiki quite by chance, I was looking for a console/terminal
+menu system and found pdmenu.  So pdmenu brought me to here and I've found ikiwiki!
+It looks as if it's just what I've been wanting for a long time.  I wanted something
+to create mostly text web pages which, as far as possible, have source which is human 
+readable or at least in a standard format.  ikiwiki does this twice over by using 
+markdown for the source and producing static HTML from it.
+
+I'm currently using TWiki and have a fair number of pages in that format, does
+anyone have any bright ideas for translating?  I can knock up awk scripts fairly
+easily, perl is possible (but I'm not strong in perl).
+
+> Let us know if you come up with something to transition from the other
+> format. Another option would be writing a ikiwiki plugin to support the
+> TWiki format. --[[Joey]]
+
+> Jamey Sharp and I have a set of scripts in progress to convert other wikis to ikiwiki, including history, so that we can migrate a few of our wikis.  We already have support for migrating MoinMoin wikis to ikiwiki, including conversion of the entire history to Git.  We used this to convert the [XCB wiki](http://xcb.freedesktop.org/wiki/) to ikiwiki; until we finalize the conversion and put the new wiki in place of the old one, you can browse the converted result at <http://xcb.freedesktop.org/ikiwiki>.  We already plan to add support for TWiki (including history, since you can just run parsecvs on the TWiki RCS files to get Git), so that we can convert the [Portland State Aerospace Society wiki](http://psas.pdx.edu) (currently in Moin, but with much of its history in TWiki, and with many of its pages still in TWiki format using Jamey's TWiki format for MoinMoin).
+>
+> Our scripts convert by way of HTML, using portions of the source wiki's code to render as HTML (with some additional code to do things like translate MoinMoin's `\[[TableOfContents]]` to ikiwiki's `\[[!toc ]]`), and then using a modified [[!cpan HTML::WikiConverter]] to turn this into markdown and ikiwiki.  This produces quite satisfactory results, apart from things that don't have any markdown equivalent and thus remain HTML, such as tables and definition lists.  Conversion of the history occurs by first using another script we wrote to translate MoinMoin history to Git, then using our git-map script to map a transformation over the Git history.

+
+--JeremyReed
+
+Another Followup: I created a new ikiwiki configuration and did the --setup to 
+create an entirely different website. I have same problem there. No prompt for password
+and empty webpage when using the cgi.
+I never upgraded any perl modules so maybe a new perl module is required but I don't see any errors so I don't know.
+
+The only errors I see when building and installing ikiwiki are:

+
+    gettext 0.14 too old, not updating the pot file
+
+I don't use GNU gettext on here.
+
+I may need to revert back to my old ikiwiki install which has been used to thousands of times (with around
+1000 rcs commits via ikiwiki).
+
+--JeremyReed
+
+I downgraded to version 1.40 (that was what I had before I wrote wrong above).
+Now ikiwiki is working for me again (but using 1.40). I shouldn't have tested on production system :)
+
+--JeremyReed
+
+I am back. On a different system, I installed ikiwiki 2.6.1. Same problem -- blank CGI webpage.
+
+So I manually ran with:
+

+
+And clearly saw the error:
+
+    [IkiWiki::main] Fatal: Bad template engine CGI::FormBuilder::Template::div: Can't locate CGI/FormBuilder/Template/div.pm
+
+So I found my version was too old and 3.05 is the first to provide "Div" support. I upgraded my p5-CGI-FormBuilder to 3.0501.
+And ikiwiki CGI started working for me.
+
+The Ikiwiki docs about this requirement got removed in Revision 4367. There should be a page that lists the requirements.

-# Excellent - how do I translate a TWiki site?
-
-I just discovered ikiwiki quite by chance, I was looking for a console/terminal
-menu system and found pdmenu.  So pdmenu brought me to here and I've found ikiwiki!
-It looks as if it's just what I've been wanting for a long time.  I wanted something
-to create mostly text web pages which, as far as possible, have source which is human 
-readable or at least in a standard format.  ikiwiki does this twice over by using 
-markdown for the source and producing static HTML from it.
-
-I'm currently using TWiki and have a fair number of pages in that format, does
-anyone have any bright ideas for translating?  I can knock up awk scripts fairly
-easily, perl is possible (but I'm not strong in perl).
-
-> Let us know if you come up with something to transition from the other
-> format. Another option would be writing a ikiwiki plugin to support the
-> TWiki format. --[[Joey]]
-
-> Jamey Sharp and I have a set of scripts in progress to convert other wikis to ikiwiki, including history, so that we can migrate a few of our wikis.  We already have support for migrating MoinMoin wikis to ikiwiki, including conversion of the entire history to Git.  We used this to convert the [XCB wiki](http://xcb.freedesktop.org/wiki/) to ikiwiki; until we finalize the conversion and put the new wiki in place of the old one, you can browse the converted result at <http://xcb.freedesktop.org/ikiwiki>.  We already plan to add support for TWiki (including history, since you can just run parsecvs on the TWiki RCS files to get Git), so that we can convert the [Portland State Aerospace Society wiki](http://psas.pdx.edu) (currently in Moin, but with much of its history in TWiki, and with many of its pages still in TWiki format using Jamey's TWiki format for MoinMoin).
->
-> Our scripts convert by way of HTML, using portions of the source wiki's code to render as HTML (with some additional code to do things like translate MoinMoin's `\[[TableOfContents]]` to ikiwiki's `\[[!toc ]]`), and then using a modified [[!cpan HTML::WikiConverter]] to turn this into markdown and ikiwiki.  This produces quite satisfactory results, apart from things that don't have any markdown equivalent and thus remain HTML, such as tables and definition lists.  Conversion of the history occurs by first using another script we wrote to translate MoinMoin history to Git, then using our git-map script to map a transformation over the Git history.
->
-> We will post the scripts as soon as we have them complete enough to convert our wikis.

-# Various ways to use Subversion with ikiwiki
-
-I'm playing around with various ways that I can use subversion with ikiwiki.
-
-* Is it possible to have ikiwiki point to a subversion repository which is on a different server?  The basic checkin/checkout functionality seems to work but there doesn't seem to be any way to make the post-commit hook work for a non-local server?
-
-> This is difficult to do since ikiwiki's post-commit wrapper expects to
-> run on a machine that contains both the svn repository and the .ikiwiki
-> state directory. However, with recent versions of ikiwiki, you can get
-> away without running the post-commit wrapper on commit, and all you lose
-> is the ability to send commit notification emails.
-
-> (And now that [[recentchanges]] includes rss, you can just subscribe to
-> that, no need to worry about commit notification emails anymore.)
-
-* Is it possible / sensible to have ikiwiki share a subversion repository with other data (either completely unrelated files or another ikiwiki instance)?  This works in part but again the post-commit hook seems problematic.
-
---[[AdamShand]]
-
-> Sure, see ikiwiki's subversion repository for example of non-wiki files
-> in the same repo. If you have two wikis in one repository, you will need
-> to write a post-commit script that calls the post-commit wrappers for each
-> wiki.

-# Regex for Valid Characters in Filenames
-
-I'm sure that this is documented somewhere but I've ransacked the wiki and I can't find it.  :-(  What are the allowed characters in an ikiwiki page name?  I'm writing a simple script to make updating my blog easier and need to filter invalid characters (so far I've found that # and , aren't allowed ;-)).  Thanks for any pointers.  -- [[AdamShand]]
-
-> The default `wiki_file_regexp` matches filenames containing only
-> `[-[:alnum:]_.:/+]`
-> 
-> The titlepage() function will convert freeform text to a valid
-> page name. See [[todo/should_use_a_standard_encoding_for_utf_chars_in_filenames]]
-> for an example. --[[Joey]]
-
->> Perfect, thanks! 
->>
->> In the end I decided that I didn't need any special characters in filenames and replaced everything but alphanumeric characters with underscores.  In addition to replacing bad characters I also collapse multiple underscores into a single one, and strip off trailing and leading underscores to make tidy filenames.  If it's useful to anybody else here's a sed example:
->>
->>     # echo "++ Bad: ~@#$%^&*()_=}{[];,? Iki: +_-:./ Num: 65.5 ++" | sed -e 's/[^A-Za-z0-9_]/_/g' -e 's/__*/_/g' -e 's/^_//g' -e 's/_$//g'

-I run multiple ikiwiki-powered sites on multiple servers, but today I just upgraded one to 2.32.3.
-Please have a look at
-<http://bsdwiki.reedmedia.net/wiki/recentchanges.html>
-Any suggestions?
-
-> There are no upgrade steps required. It does look like you need to enable
-> the meta plugin to get a good recentchanges page though.. --[[Joey]]

-# News site where articles are submitted and then reviewed before posting?
-
-I am considering moving a news site to Ikiwiki. I am hoping that Ikiwiki has a feature where anonymous posters can submit a form that moderators can review and then accept for it to be posted on a news webpage (like front page of the website).

-> Well, you can have one blog that contains unreviewed articles, and
-> moderators can then add a tag that makes the article show up in the main
-> news feed. There's nothing stopping someone submitting an article
-> pre-tagged though. If you absolutely need to lock that down, you could
-> have one blog with unreviewed articles in one subdirectory, and reviewers
-> then move the file over to another subdirectory when they're ready to
-> publish it. (This second subdirectory would be locked to prevent others
-> from writing to it.) --[[Joey]]

-Also it would be good if the news page would keep maybe just the latest 10 entries with links to an archive that make it easy to browse to old entries by date. (Could have over a thousand news articles.)
-
-> The inline plugin allows setting up things like this.
-
-Plus users be able to post feedback to news items. If anonymous, they must be approved first. I'd prefer to not use normal "wiki" editor for feedback.
-
-Any thoughts or examples on this? Any links to examples of news sites or blogs with outside feedback using ikiwiki?

-Thanks --[[JeremyReed]]
