After editing ikiwiki.setup, and running "ikiwiki --setup", the CGI script is successfully created. However, if I then click on "Edit Page" link, I see nothing in the browser and the following in the logs:

Can anyone decipher this for me? I spent some time with cpan earlier today downloading the latest version I could find of prerequisite modules such as HTML::Template and CGI::FormBuilder.

I have version 3.0401 of CGI::FormBuilder -- the latest from CPAN. If you are wondering about any other modules, the answer
is likely the same: the latest from CPAN. And you're right: the error string in question does not appear in CGI::FormBuilder. I found it in HTML::Template (version 2.8).

OK, so downgrading CGI::FormBuilder to 3.0302 makes the problem go away. I'll leave it to you to figure out whether the bug is in CGI::FormBuilder or in IkiWiki. --Steve
Maybee this bug should be renamed as "doesn't work with CGI::FormBuilder (3.04)." I get same error on FreeBSD.
HTML::Template::param() : attempt to set parameter 'form-submit' with an array
ref - parameter is not a TMPL_LOOP!

For the curious, this new version of CGI::FormBuilder changes how it passes
some values to the HTML::Template template. In particular, FORM-SUBMIT used
to be just a string containing the buttons used to submit the form. With
the new version, it's an array of strings, one per button, and the template
needs to be written differently to deal with this. Oddly, the docs have not
been updated about this. In fact, from all I can tell, it's a bug, since
the array is not in the form that HTML::Template expects to receive it.
Here's a simple test case:
#!/usr/bin/perl
my @fields=qw(editcontent);
my @buttons=("Save", "Preview", "Cancel");
use CGI::FormBuilder;
my $form = CGI::FormBuilder->new(
fields => \@fields,
template => "foo.tmpl",
);
print $form->render(submit => \@buttons);
With this test case, it does not seem to be possible to write a foo.tmpl that
outputs the buttons using the FORM-SUBMIT template variable.
I was able to work around this bug by just not using FORM-SUBMIT in the
template, and hardcoding the buttons (since they never change anyway).
Nasty, but it should work. I haven't fully installed the new version of
CGI::FormBuilder to test it, and it's quite possible that other changes
in the new version cause other breakage. If you want to test the fix,
it's in svn now. --[[Joey]]
Now that the new version of formbuilder is in debian unstable, I'm using
ikiwiki with it, and, after fixing a bug or two more, I think it's all
working, so I'll call this bug [[bugs/done]]. --[[Joey]]
