When I try to edit a page that has a forward slash in the URL, I get "Error: bad page name". I think the problem is because the forward slash is escaped as `%252F` instead of `%2F`. For example, if I go to `http://ciffer.net/~svend/tech/hosts/` and click Edit, I am sent to a page with the URL `http://ciffer.net/~svend/ikiwiki.cgi?page=tech%252Fhosts&do=edit`. I am running ikiwiki 3.20100504~bpo50+1 on Debian Lenny. > But on your page, the Edit link is escaped normally and correctly (using %2F). > Look at the page source! > > The problem is that your web server is forcing a hard (302) redirect > to the doubly-escaped url. In wireshark I see your web server send back: HTTP/1.1 302 Found\r\n Apache/2.2.9 (Debian) PHP/5.2.6-1+lenny9 with Suhosin-Patch Location: http://ciffer.net/~svend/ikiwiki.cgi?page=tech%252Fhosts&do=edit > You'll need to investigate why your web server is doing that... --[[Joey]] >> Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
