Hi Paul, in April you posted following error on the moin-user mailing list: > I now get the following errors when deploying a wiki using Apache and mod_wsgi: > > File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/moin/themes/__init__.py", line 831, in setup_jinja_env > "item_name": request.view_args.get("item_name", ""), > ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get' > > Using the built-in Web server with "moin run" works fine, however. If you still need support, may I ask you to send me more details on how to reconstruct this error? What version of Debian are you using and where can I find the moin package for testing? Regards, Ulrich

Moin 1.9 & 2: Link to fraudulent website in your help pages, action required
by Sebastian Wagner Aug. 22, 2024

Aug. 22, 2024

Dear Moin community, Moin's default intermap.txt contains a InterWiki link for the usemodwiki. Although usemod[.]com has been replacedby usemod[.]org by it's owners, a Vietnamese *online gambling* website now uses .org, the original domain, which is still part of the intermap.txt. As the help page 'HelpOnProcessingInstructions' contains a link using the usemodintermaplink, *all Moin-instances*contain a link to that fraudulent website. For Moin2, the current git HEAD contains a fix; for Moin 1.9, the fix has not yet been merged. However, *updating your instance is insufficient*, as the intermap.txt is a setting per instance. You can use the following command at your own risk (adapt if needed) to update the file: sed -i -e 's#usemod\.com/cgi-bin/mb\.pl?InterMapTxt#usemod.org/cgi-bin/mb.pl?InterMapT…' -e 's#www\.usemod\.com/cgi-bin/mb\.pl?#meatballwiki.org/wiki/#' -e 's#usemod\.com/cgi-bin/wiki\.pl#usemod.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl#' intermap.txt And similar, the website httpX://parawiki[.]org/ promotes a Thai gambling service, so it can be removed as well: sed -i '/parawiki.org/d' intermap.txt A significant number of thelinks in the intermap.txt are outdated, these *currently*don't pose an equal fraud or security risk. We recommend only keeping those entries in the intermap.txt that are actually needed in your wiki. Best regards and keep safe Sebastian More details: * Moin2 Issue: https://github.com/moinwiki/moin/issues/1729 * Moin2 Merge Request for usemod: https://github.com/moinwiki/moin/pull/1731 (merged, unreleased) * Moin2 Merge Request for parawiki: https://github.com/moinwiki/moin/pull/1732 (unmerged, unreleased) * Moin1.9 Issue: https://github.com/moinwiki/moin-1.9/issues/100 * Moin1.9 Merge Request for usemod: https://github.com/moinwiki/moin-1.9/pull/101 (unmerged, unreleased) * Moin1.9 Merge Request for parawiki: https://github.com/moinwiki/moin-1.9/pull/102 (unmerged, unreleased) -- Sebastian Wagner <sebastian.wagner(a)intevation.de> | https://intevation.de Intevation GmbH, Osnabrueck, DE; Amtsgericht Osnabrueck, HRB 18998 Geschaeftsfuehrer: Frank Koormann, Bernhard Reiter
