MoinMoin - Can't create new pages

F

ferg

I've checked all the FAQs and help - spent a couple of hours on this
now and it's really bugging me.

I've got Moin 1.3.5 installed on IIS 5.0.
I can view and edit pages without any problems, but cannot create new
pages - either trough the GUI, or by creating a new WikiName and
clicking on it.
I'm stumped as to whether this is a Moin ACL problem (played around a
lot with this, but to no avail) or perhaps an IIS config problem
(though the Web Account has full control to the data directory).
The Wiki is an internal intranet one for our development group, so I
don't really care if everyone is an admin, I just need to be able to
create new pages anyway.

Here is my wikiconfig.py
# -*- coding: iso-8859-1 -*-
# IMPORTANT! This encoding (charset) setting MUST be correct! If you
live in a
# western country and you don't know that you use utf-8, you probably
want to
# use iso-8859-1 (or some other iso charset). If you use utf-8 (a
Unicode
# encoding) you MUST use: coding: utf-8
# That setting must match the encoding your editor uses when you modify
the
# settings below. If it does not, special non-ASCII chars will be
wrong.

MoinMoin - Configuration for a single wiki

If you run a single wiki only, you can omit the farmconfig.py
config
file and just use wikiconfig.py - it will be used for every request
we get in that case.

Note that there are more config options than you'll find in
the version of this file that is installed by default; see
the module MoinMoin.multiconfig for a full list of names and their
default values.

Also, the URL http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/HelpOnConfiguration
has
a list of config options.

I should have mentioned that the error message I keep getting is the ol
HTTP 404 - "The page cannot be found"

Newsflash:
I've tried the [[NewPage]] macro and that works, but still no joy with
the WikiName links. Well that's a work around for now, but it'd still
be great to know why the other methods don't work...

ferg, did you get any more replies on this, or figure it out somehow?

I've got exactly the same problem with IIS5, W2K and Moin 1.3.5 - works
fine except gives 404 for non-existent pages.
