[Phpwiki-talk] WantedPages: assertion failed

[Oliver B. <ob...@de...>]

Hello All,

in PhpWiki 1.3.4 and the nightly CVS version (2003-03-18) WantedPages 
didn't work on an existing data base.

The nightly CVS version shows the introductory text of WantedPages 
and this error:

"lib/WikiDB.php(In template 'browse'?)(In template 'body'?)(In 
template 'html'?):167: Fatal[0]: <br />/mywiki/lib/WikiDB.php:167: : 
Assertion failed <br />"

While 1.3.4 doesn't even show the text, only this error: 
"lib/WikiDB.php:160: Fatal[0]: <br />/mywiki/lib/WikiDB.php:160: : 
Assertion failed <br />"

In both cases, there is:

    function getPage($pagename) {
        assert(is_string($pagename) && $pagename);
        return new WikiDB_Page($this, $pagename);
    }

With a fresh created Wiki, WantedPages worked. I can't see why.

Any hints?

I'm not sure, but my guess is that there's a record in the page table
with pagename = '' (the empty string).

Try using the 'Exorcise WikiDB' button on the bottom of
PhpWikiAdministration
(it's only in the CVS version, not 1.3.4).
That may or may not help.  Report back in either case.
