The user saw an "Internal server error" and hit reload, which failed due to the "independently created, not overwriting" check. The site was then wedged not accepting edits until manually fixed. After deleting the html file, `ikiwiki --refresh` successfully built things, without libmarkdown segfaulting this time. I don't know if this was a transient libmarkdown bug or a memory glitch. Either way, seems that ikiwiki could better handle recovery from this kind of scenario. The "independently created" check has a security benefit... Perhaps ikiwiki could keep a log file of destdir files it's recently created but has yet to record in the index, and then the check can be skipped for those files. --[[Joey]]
