Hi, the turnkey TWiki version is 4.1.2 i believe. Has anyone succesfully upgraded it to 4.3 or even 5.0 ?
if so, did you follow the standard instructions as per twiki.org and/or anything special ?
thanks

Reply 2And without doublechecking with an installed instance it's hard to know if its a limitation of running in Live mode or whether its actually a bug. Perhaps you could try testing it by installing to a VM (in VirtualBox or similar) and testing for us? :)
Removed the -T flag from configure
Reply 3Removed the -T flag from configure and things looks much better :)
Looks like a known issue
Reply 4that did the trick, now...
Reply 5hi that did the trick. Something else is cropping up. Now before trying Turnkey I did manage to install Twiki 5 on ubuntu meerkat myself. With both my installation and turnkey im seeing this error whenever I install any plugins:
eg: AttachLinkPlugin
error:
Warning: CPAN is not available, some installer functions have been disabled
and
Insecure dependency in require while running with -T switch at /usr/share/perl5/LWP/UserAgent.pm line 386.
at /usr/share/perl5/LWP/UserAgent.pm line 386
Now i can't seem to find much (1 post maybe) mentioning this -T switch issue. The odd thing is that the plugins DO get installed and we then have to simply enable the plugin on the appropriate page. Would be nice to fix this error.
Thx
Seems LWP is a Perl module
Reply 6Assuming that is what this error is suggesting, you could try this:
apt-get update && apt-get install libwww-perl
Sae if that helps, lry mr know how it goes. If the error changes, please post the new error.
cant find/install plugins in the new version
Reply 7I ran the new RC in live mode and saw the below when clicking on 'find extensions'
Error accessing TWiki.org: Incomplete headers This is most likely because the LWP CPAN module isn't installed.

Reply 8Shh...! Don't tell anyone else... :)
Reply 9But if you have a look here then you'll find a pre-release version (RC for Release Candidate). Just remember its not quite a final release yet though. Its probably fine but it may contain bugs etc. If you find any please please post.
ok thanks. do you know when
Reply 10ok thanks. do you know when the next release might be ;-)
Unless you have an urgent need
Reply 11I would personally wait and see what version the new TKL release is.
From a quick look, it seems that the Twiki version included in the current stable TKL appliance is from the Ubuntu repos. The new TKL release will be based on Ubuntu Lucid and from what I can see, Twiki isn't in the repos anymore. This would suggest to me that the TKL Twiki appliance will include an upstream install (and I would imagine, they will use the latest stable version). Hopefully you will be able to easily migrate your data over suing TKLBAM, but I can't confirm this yet.
If you can't or don't want to wait, the instructions will help, but you'll need to remember that you will be going from a packaged (from Ubuntu repos) install to an upstream ('standard') install. That will make the transition a little tricker but should still be possible.
same thing happens when installed to HD in my VM :(
