[Moin-user] Problems installing MoinMoin 1.5beta1: Bareword ....

[Johannes Kilian]

Hi there,

I'm just playing around with MoinMoin 1.5beta1. (I've installed MoinMoin
already in earlier versions - which worked already correctly, but I
haven't used it for quite a while ...)

I performed a new installation.
Now trying to start the wiki, it fails producing the following
error-message in my error.log file of Apache Web-Server
---------
[Wed Nov 02 10:11:04 2005] [error] String found where operator expected

The corresponding moin.cgi file looks like (almost unchanged from
original - only adapted the shebang and the Path of the directory where
wikiconfig.py is located):

*************************************

# System path configuration

import sys

# YOU NEED TO CHANGE THIS TO MATCH YOUR SETUP.
sys.path.insert(0, 'D:/Web/Wiki/Moin/HowtoWiki/wikiconfig.py')

## import os
## os.environ['MOIN_DEBUG'] = '1'

# This is used to profile MoinMoin (default disabled)

# ---------------------------------------------------------------------

if hotshotProfiler:
    import hotshot
    prof = hotshot.Profile("moin.prof")
    prof.start()

from MoinMoin.request import RequestCGI
request = RequestCGI()
request.run()

if hotshotProfiler:
    prof.close()
*************************************

Commenting out the "problematic line" just "moves" the error to one of
the next non-comment lines. Some lines work without errors ...
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, 'D:/Web/Wiki/Moin/HowtoWiki/wikiconfig.py')

But the most important ones

from MoinMoin.request import RequestCGI
request = RequestCGI()
request.run()

show the same error ....

Running:
WinXP SP2
ActivePython 2.4 Build 243 (ActiveState Corp.)
MoinMoin 1.5beta1
Apache 2.0.54

Any help welcome

Johannes
