Blank pages using http server mode and text archive.org DBs

[thombles]

Hi again, I have the bad news is that v3.6.3.3 continues to render blank pages for me. I have deleted everything except the wiki/ directory and re-extracted the zip file, leaving everything at defaults. I assume XOWA does not modify the wiki databases so they should be the same.

I run it like this:

$ java -jar xowa_linux_64.jar --app_mode http_server --http_server_port 8100

I search for the word "cog" and the search results display great. :) I then click on the top result "Cog". I see this in the server console:

The page renders like this:

The relevant HTML section is this:

<div id="mw-page-base" class="noprint"></div>
<div id="mw-head-base" class="noprint"></div>
<div id="content" class="mw-body">
<div id='xowa_err_div' class='xowa_err' style='display:none; color:red; white-space:pre; display:block; unicode-bidi:embed;'></div><h1 id="firstHeading" class="firstHeading"><span>Cog</span></h1>  
<div id="bodyContent" class="mw-body-content">
    <div id="siteSub">From XOWA: the free, open-source, offline wiki application</div>
    <div id="contentSub" class="visible"></div>
    <div id="jump-to-nav" class="mw-jump">Jump to:<a href="#mw-navigation">navigation</a>, <a href="#p-search">search</a></div>
    <div id="mw-content-text" lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

Let me know if there's anything else that would be useful!

Hi! Thanks for the screenshots and the excellent detail.

This was an oversight on my part. v3.6.3.3 fixed the issue for the GUI, but not the HTTP Server. I didn't test the HTTP Server, because I assumed they were using the same code. I forgot that I still hadn't merged the code so that both GUI and HTTP Server did the same thing.

I merged the code for v3.6.3.4 and released it now. See: https://github.com/gnosygnu/xowa/releases/tag/v3.6.3.4 . I also tested with both GUI and HTTP Server now with the version of English Wikipedia from archive.org.

Let me know if there's anything else. Thanks again!

I have installed 3.6.3.4 and confirmed that page text is now rendering. Thank you!

Great! Thanks for the follow-up. Sorry for the multiple attempts. Let me know if there's anything else!
