Why are some pages displaced incorrectly? #85

Hi there,

I have a Moin 1.9.11 with pypy2.7 Strangely enough some pages are displayed all right

However when I click on a page (say InvisiblesLab/SafetyRules) I get something weird like ...

with a version of the page appearing at the bottom?

a) Is it a permission issue?

b) The mod_wsgi not working properly?

Many thanks

I noticed that looking at the pages directory there are some strange directories with names like xxxxx(2f)yyyyy these ones as opposed to the ones with standard names DO give issues Any idea what is going on?

Many thanks

Roberto

Top post: unstyled looks of a page usually means that your CSS URLs are not working. Looks at the html page source to find out how the URLs look and access such an URL directly with your browser. Guess you'll get a 404 file not found or 403 forbidden or so. If you fix the root cause for this, page rendering will look normal.

Page directory names: all "special" characters are encoded as (xx) where xx are hex digits (2, 4, ...). This is an internal detail of how moin-1.9 stores data into the filesystem and unrelated to page rendering issues.
