Description Steve Chaplin 2008-12-20 20:09:32 UTC

Go to http://www.cairographics.org/
Select 'Edit', you are prompted to log in
Enter Name and Password
I then receive the message
"cairographics.org/ Error
  Error: login failed, perhaps you need to turn on cookies?"

Cookies are enabled, and I can successfully view the
ikiwiki_session_cairographics.org cookie in my browser.
How are cookies related to logging in?


A second problem is :
Go to http://www.cairographics.org/
Select 'Recent Changes'
I then receive the message
"Not Found
The requested URL /recentchanges/ was not found on this server."

I found a workaround for the first problem - use http://cairographics.org/
instead of http://www.cairographics.org/. It works, but the problem remains - the cairo nameserver and the cairo wiki are inconsistent and do not work together properly.

While editing the pycairo wiki I came up against another problem. The file permissions on 
  /srv/cairo.freedesktop.org/www/pycairo/index.html
somehow changed and now nobody apart from Carl can access the pycairo wiki.

Thanks for the reports, Steve.

Both bugs should be completely fixed now, but let me know if I missed anything or if anything goes wrong again in the future.
