[pmwiki-users] Bugreport: Save fails (content destroyed) due tofilled quota

[Swift, Chris]

Jochem,

Are you trying to say that there is a webserver quota by your
university?  Or do you mean that PmWiki somehow has a quota limit?


Thanks,
 
Chris

Subject: [pmwiki-users] Bugreport: Save fails (content destroyed) due
tofilled quota

Dear developers,

I put a new bug in the bugreport system:
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PITS/01057

Summary: Save fails (content destroyed) due to filled quota

Version: 2.1.27
OS: SunOS mremote 5.9 Generic_122300-16 sun4u/Apache/1.3.37 (Unix)
PHP/4.4.4 mod_ssl/2.8.28 OpenSSL/0.9.8d

Description: Saving a wiki page when the webserver quota is full causes
the wiki page save to fail. The file is saved with size 0, thus
destroying all content.

The content of the following files was lost (given size 0): 
~/public_html/pmwiki/wiki.d/Main.HomePage
~/public_html/pmwiki/wiki.d/Main.RecentChanges
~/public_html/pmwiki/wiki.d/Site.AllRecentChanges

To reproduce: 1. Create a wiki page with content 2. Fill the quota of
the webserver user (or maybe fill the partition?) 3. Try to modify and
save the wiki page.

Result: Content (and all changes) are lost and the wiki page file gets
size 0. The content cannot be recovered by reverting, since the
RecentChanges and AllRecentChanges files are lost too.

Desired result: The save should fail with an error message and the
original content should be preserved.

Note: Unfortunately, I'm unable to check this problem (with the latest
version of PMwiki), since I'm on a shared university network. Filling
the quota (of the webserver user) would break all the Wiki's/Blogs/CMS
systems on the webserver.

Thank you very much for an excellent product. I absolutely love pmwiki
with jsMath. :)

Best regards,
Jochem Liem
