Hello-
Recently I upgraded from foswiki 1.19 to 2.1.3 while at the same time moving to a new server and also upgrading apache from 2.2 to 2.4. Obviously too many moving parts! Right now I can view the webs and make changes to any webs as in the past. However, when I attempt to configure, I get an error in the error log as follows: [Fri Mar 31 11:17:39.945742 2017] [cgi:error] [pid 53630] [client 192.168.101.149:1398] AH01215: ERROR: can't load plugin for UI::Tooltip: /zdata/foswiki/bin/configure And on the screen, I'm getting a warning as follows: Warning Foswiki is running in 'bootstrap' mode, which means that there is no existing configuration (LocalSite.cfg is missing or unreadable). Before you save, you must make sure you have configured some way to log in as an admin (see 'Security and Authentication'), or you might lock yourself out from this interface. Username: Password: Show expert options And in the middle of the page is a watermark type saying "Loading..." How do I fix this? Throw out the existing LocalSite.cfg and recreate it? This doesn't seem right so am reaching out to the Foswiki community! ~Doug ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Foswiki-discuss mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/foswiki-discuss |
If the regular view script on foswiki is not showing the bootstrap
message, but configure seems to be stuck in bootstrap, then it's probably an error, either with javascript, or with the "jsonrpc" script. The 2.x configure is a bit different from 1.x. the bin/configure script only loads a basic page with those warnings. Javascript takes over and actually loads all the tabs, and populates them with json requests to the jsonrpc script, hiding the warnings. - Make sure that the browser is not reporting any javascript errors when loading the configure panel. - If you can, examine the network traffic, make sure that the requests to jsonrpc are successful. Did you follow the recommendation to reconfigure Foswiki 2.x from scratch and migrate the data, or did you try to reuse the LocalSite.cfg & configuration from the old site. UI::Tooltip could be the jquery tooltip plugin. In which case, issues there might be being caused by a incomplete configuration. Another thing to try, configure can be run from the command line using tools/configure. cd /var/www/foswiki && sudo -u www-data tools/configure -check will run all the configure checkers and tell you if anything is complaining. It will also detect if any of the core or extension "Spec" files have not been merged and will give you a message like: Checking:Extensions -> Extension operation and maintenance -> Install, Update or Remove extensions: {ExtensionsRepositories} WARNING: The Foswiki.spec for the core is more recent than the latest configuration. WARNING: You should run 'tools/configure -wizard Plugins -save'. Note, be sure to run any of the cli tools as the "web server user" and not root. ie sudo -u www-data tools/configure ... You can also check all the file system permissions by running: tools/configure -check {DataDir} -method validate_permissions tools/configure -check {PubDir} -method validate_permissions George On 03/31/2017 02:35 PM, Doug Sampson wrote: > Hello- > > Recently I upgraded from foswiki 1.19 to 2.1.3 while at the same time moving to a new server and also upgrading apache from 2.2 to 2.4.

I just decided to start over and redo the installation. I have a backup of the foswiki data that I copied over from the older server. I have a new working foswiki 2.1.3 site going with all its defaults. In the sandbox, I find that I can create topics but am not able to create content for each topic. There isn't any text box for me to fill in. Secondly, running the bulk_copy.pl to convert the data from iso-5591-1 to uft-8 results in the following error: root@aries:/usr/local/www/foswiki/tools # perl bulk_copy.pl --xweb System --xweb _default --xweb _empty --latest '*.WebStatistics' /usr/home/dougs/foswiki/bin /usr/local/www/foswiki/bin xweb: System,_default,_empty latest: *.WebStatistics Copying from v2.1.3 (Foswiki::Store::RcsLite) Copying to v2.1.3 (Foswiki::Store::RcsLite) - Web 'Main' already exists in target - skipped - Web 'Sandbox' already exists in target - skipped - Skipping xweb System Copy web TWiki - Topic TWiki.WebAtom already exists in target - skipped - Topic TWiki.WebChanges already exists in target - skipped - Topic TWiki.WebCreateNewTopic already exists in target - skipped - Topic TWiki.WebHome already exists in target - skipped - Topic TWiki.WebIndex already exists in target - skipped - Topic TWiki.WebLeftBarExample already exists in target - skipped - Topic TWiki.WebNotify already exists in target - skipped Copy topic TWiki.WebPreferences Version 1 by ProjectContributor at 09 Sep 2009 - 01:06 - Topic TWiki.WebRss already exists in target - skipped - Topic TWiki.WebSearch already exists in target - skipped - Topic TWiki.WebSearchAdvanced already exists in target - skipped - Topic TWiki.WebTopicList already exists in target - skipped - Web 'Trash' already exists in target - skipped - Skipping xweb _default - Skipping xweb _empty root@aries:/usr/local/www/foswiki/tools # There are other webs that apparently have not been converted.

Something is wrong here. It seems to be copying from 2.1.3 to 2.1.3. If you are trying to copy from an old installation, it should be reporting a different "from" version, where it would also be detecting a different character set. But tbh for a "like store" conversion, I'd recommend installing CharsetConverterContrib into the new 2.1.3 install. Once the system is fully configured and stable, convert the webs. This is done one web at a time, but never convert the same web more than once. Best to take a quick backup occasionally in case of typos. cp -a oldsys/data/VideoProduction newsys/data/. cp -a oldsys/pub/VideoProduction newsys/pub/. cd newsys/tools Then inspect for any conversion issues; ./convert_charset.pl -i -encoding=cp-1252 -web=VideoProduction (cp-1252 character set is usually the best choice, even though ISO-8859-1 is the default character set. If you have windows users who cut/paste into topics, your data is most likely the windows character set. If your users are particularly inventive, you may need to fiddle with this a bit.) And if it looks clean, make the conversion: ./convert_charset.pl -encoding=cp-1252 -web=VideoProduction Finally convert any deprecated empty DENY* rules to ALLOW wildcards: ./convertTopicSettings.pl -fixdeny -update -verbose VideoProduction You should convert the Main web, and any other webs with local data. Don't touch System web. *all of the above* should be done as the www user, so that ownership of files doesn't change. If you do run as root, then before you go live with apache, chown -R www:www /path/to/foswiki to fix all the ownerships. You should also copy the working/work_areas directory to the new system. And the .htpasswd file if you are using htpasswd for authentication. Hopefully none of your wikinames use non-ascii characters. That fixup is completely manual. The above approach seems to work pretty well. > ... > root@aries:/usr/local/www/foswiki/tools # ll /usr/home/dougs/foswiki/data/ > total 432 > ... > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 59 Mar 30 00:05 Accounting/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 31 Mar 30 00:05 BldgMaintenance/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 30 Mar 30 00:05 CustomerService/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 37 Mar 30 00:05 HumanResources/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 51 Mar 30 00:05 InventoryControl/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 61 Mar 30 00:05 Main/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 32 Mar 30 00:05 Marketing/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 599 Mar 30 00:05 OpsSupport/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 30 Mar 30 00:05 President/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 33 Mar 30 00:05 Production/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 25 Mar 30 00:05 Sandbox/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 513 Mar 30 00:05 System/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 17 Dec 18 2012 TWiki/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 50 Mar 30 00:05 TestDept/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 22 Mar 30 00:05 Trash/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 30 Mar 30 00:05 VideoProduction/ > drwxr-xr-x+ 2 www www 30 Mar 30 00:05 Warehouse/ Something strange here.

In the sandbox, I find that I can create topics but am not able to create content for each topic. There isn't any text box for me to fill in. This sounds like a configuration issue. Foswiki 2.x uses NatEdit to replace to older Raw Edit in Foswiki 1.x, so any settings you may have had in Main/ (ex: SitePreferences) or other customizations (ex: Skins, templates) may be obsolete in the new version. So, if you haven't done this, just get a vanilla Foswiki 2.x up and running before migrating anything (data, tmp files, users, templates, configs, preferences). The clean tarball should just work in a new virtual host, unless there is something wrong with your Apache config. ERROR: can't load plugin for UI::Tooltip UI::Tooltip is part of JQueryPlugin, which is in the base install for Foswiki 2.x. I haven't had a problem in a while, but I do recall having occasional configuration issues with JQueryPlugin in the past. Usually, the selected default library versions were incompatible with the browser, or something similar. So if you are getting Javascript errors, you might want to look at that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Foswiki-discuss mailing list [hidden email] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/foswiki-discuss |
