I made a change to lib/Foswiki/Configure/Checker.pm to report the rcs version in a NOTE, and it reports 5.9.2 with no issues. There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. Below is what rcs returns on my local system now. Foswiki installed and is running fine.Ĭould you get some more details about the exact failure in configure? The RCS version issue might be unrelated. It took a bit but I've managed to get rcs 5.9.2 installed on my local test system: However I'm not seeing any issues with configure.
You could probablyt sneak around the issue as well by changing from RcsWrap to RcsLite for the configured version of RCS. Some commonly used perl code in 1.0.x has been deprecated and will fail with more recent versions of perl.Īs far as the RCS Version check, it's done in configure in lib/Foswiki/Configure/Checker.pm, in the subroutine checkRCSProgram - around line 474. But certainly older versions of Foswiki are going to have trouble with more recent versions of perl. We'd need some error messages or some more to go on. I can't say why Foswik 1.0.9 is failing to save pages. Is this also why the older version fails? I was grepping through Foswiki, trying to find that "rcs -V"so I could patch it to "rcs -version", but I cannot seem to find it.
