Im having trouble getting the ComSwiki source code to work under a squeak 3.6 image. The ComSwiki.cs file filesin correctly so that i can access the code using the Browser but i cant get my objects to respond to http calls. It works fine using the ComSwiki.cs in a 3.4 squeak image.
Files with underscores in the name can be uploaded, but then are not viewable.
for some strange reason i can't use the *(&star) escape when it is between double quotes "*"
I'm experiencing the same problem with ComSwiki 1.3 and Squeak 3.6 on Mac OS X. The swiki control panel comes up and I can configure the port and so on, but a "netstat -a -f inet" does not show any server running on port 80/8000/8080.
I see the same behviour on Squeak 3.6 running over NetBSD 2.0. Has anyone been able to find out more?
I put <!– –> in a page title. Swiki ate the left angle bracket (<)
but left the right angle bracket in, leading to major HTML malfunction

Updated on Dec 29 2004
Hi everyone,Here is a problem to ponder! I've set-up a Swiki at work. Work nice the server run on Linux. We use it as a knowledge management tool sharing ideas and documents etc.
So I've created a page and put an HTML reference in a page to link to a project folder on another server. That way, poeple can access the SWIKI page and browse the project folder from the swiki (2 birds with one rock) It work find with IE... But when I try to access it through Netscape 7.1 or Firefox 0.8..(and now version 1.0 ).. That XXXXX link doesn't work! Why?
In Firefox the link appear in the status bar at the bottom as:
file//\\server\share\project\myproject
while in IE it appears as:
file\\severserver\share\project\myproject
Is this a Firefox error?
Furthermore, In some instance, when I try to open a pdf with Firefox 0.8+... It give me an error, all the while it works in IE...!
any idea!

ComSwiki 1.3
Caution when deleting a swiki page in the file system. Comswiki will not find any existing page with a higher number. (Even if the deleted page is not referenced anymore). Seems like ComSwiki relies on a continuous numbering of swiki pages.Gerald Zincke
ComSwiki 3.2
version : ComSwiki 3.2* in URL doesn't work
I wanted to create a hyperlink to an entry in cvs file using viewcvs.The url should be
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/jakarta-commons-sandbox/lang/Attic/PROPOSAL.html?rev=1.5&hideattic=0
Putting the above URL within &start; (with * replaced with ☆ also doesn't work.
Solution: use HTML tags for the problematic URL like this ( look at the source )
ttp://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/jakarta-commons-sandbox/lang/Attic/PROPOSAL.html?rev=1.5&hideattic=0
Solution2: use %2A instead of * within URL.
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/%2Acheckout%2A/jakarta-commons-sandbox/lang/Attic/PROPOSAL.html?rev=1.5&hideattic=0

Cross-site scripting vulnerability
Firstly try this and check the output:
$ telnet minnow.cc.gatech.edu 80
Trying 130.207.118.114...
Connected to minnow.cc.gatech.edu.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET /<script>alert(document.domain)</script> HTTP/1.1
Host: minnow.cc.gatech.edu
... HTTP REPLY cut off ...
Some web browsers (Mozilla, Opera) escape < and > in URL but Konqueror and Explorer does not. Consequences are that a malicious Web master could publish invalid link to SWIKI that includes some JavaScript or similar stuff. If a user (with vulnerable browser) clicks, SWIKI will generate an error page and the script hidden in URL will be executed. It will be considered as originating from SWIK website thus bypassing some checks in browser. It will be able to access SWIKI with the permissions of the user. This could be expolited to modify SWIKI pages by persons that don't have the permission to do it otherwise.
To fix this, code for generating error pages should escape < and > (and perhaps all other HTML metacharacters) in the requested URL.

Log file left open
[BUGFIX] When I restarted the ComSwiki, I was failing because the logfile was left open. Therefore the log file could not be accessed.As a workaround I am finding the log file that is still open and reusing it. I made the changes in the SwikiBrowser.
I think fileNamed: 'log.txt' should return the existing file. Isn't it? [umur@writeme.com]
Solution:
version : ComSwiki 1.3
Loaded ComSwiki on Red Hat Linux 7.3 at home. I generally use KDE for Window Manager. When accessing Swiki with Konquerer (default K browser) and editing I get weird editing conflicts. Sometimes page name gets scrambled (ends up being a copy of a previously-edited page). Very strange since I am only user of this Swiki so I'm not conflicting with anyone but myself.
Checked mozilla, works fine with it. It's only with Konquerer that this happens. Other than that - really like the program.

'files including scandinavian characters gets wrong url' (5 July 2002)
Missing File (/swiki/uploads/imp%F6ssible%20to%20download.txt)On my swiki server i cant access any file containing any of the swedish characters ед and ц with IE, Netscape 4.75 works.
IE Reports URL with %UNICODE for цед, correct working URL should be with 8bit ascii едц.
A compressed change set patch exists that remedies the problem, get it here.

'lock this page after save' doesn't work (9 May 2002)
Or does it? It seems to work HERE, but not on the Swiki I just installed on my machine...
Okay, on MY Swiki anyway (which was installed May 6th), when a page is locked and then brought up for editing, if you forget to enter the password, and get the error page telling you so, then you enter the password correctly and leave the 'lock this page after save' checkbox checked, the page does not get locked again!
1.Bare LF Email Alerts (14 February 2002)
version : ComSwiki 1.2- when I (Samir) try to use email alert feature, i have on my Transcript :
:
451 See http://pobox.com/~djb/docs/smtplf.html
This problem was firstly identify in the mail-archive01771
- when i try the following code, it works fine !
deliverMailFrom: 'your@email.addres.edu'
to: #(#'your@email.addres.edu' )
text: 'From: test
To: "not listed"
Subject: this is a test
Hello from Squeak!
'
usingServer: 'yourSMTPserver'
- This problem is (Eiichiro ito):
- Swiki reads alert mail body from a template file.
- When reading a line in LineFormatter, it converts a line separator CR to CR+LF in TextFormatter/crToCrlf
- But when Swiki sends alert mail in SMTPSocket/data, it uses CR as a line separator and adds CR+LF to line in SimpleClientSocket/sendCommand:.
- As a result, Swiki sends a line with CR+LF+LF to MTA and qmail claims that second LF is bare LF.

Filename mangled when uploading
When I try to upload a file called "foo-v1.2.5.11.zip", swiki mangles the filename and uploads it as "foo-v1.5.11.zip" instead.version : ComSwiki 1.3
Filename mangling when using external server for uploads
If I upload a file "foo_bar.txt", swiki uploads it as "foo bar.txt" (ie: with the underscores replaced with spaces). This is not a problem when swiki is serving the uploads, as it obviously does some sort of translation, but when the uploads are being served by an external server it results in a file not found error. Likewise, uploading filenames with spaces in them does not work either.Also, is there a patch for the other filename mangling problem mentioned above?

Persistent connection patch for Comanche (2 April 2003)
I downloaded the ComSwiki distro... (which I think is an awesome packagingjob!) and noticed the persistent connection issue (like when using Safari)
that was fixed in the HttpAdaptor class of Comanche... I looked at the code
in the distro image, and the code:
pvtWriteResponse
[
(self isPersistentConnection and: [Preferences keepAliveConnections])
ifTrue: [response fieldAt: 'Connection' put: 'close']
ifFalse: [response fieldAt: 'Connection' put: 'Keep-Alive'].
response writeOn: self writeStream
]
on: Error do: [ :ex | ex]
Has the 'close' and 'Keep-Alive' reversed from what was in the FIX. I changed
them in my local image and everything works like a charm.. (the above code is
like what is in the image distribution and is WRONG.)
