Description
Sometimes after I edit and save a page the system shows the usual "Thank you for your changes. Your attention to detail is appreciated." message and at the same time it displays the usual message which is displayed when the page does not exists yet: "This page does not exists yet. You can create an empty page, or use one of the page templates". The page is shown in RecentChanges as "Deleted"
This happens even to users that don't have deletion rights for that specific page.
Steps to reproduce
The bug only shows up occasionally, since the site has been upgraded to Release 1.7.1 from Release 1.5.3.

Workaround
- Restarting the server helps.
- The page actually exists in data/pages/XXX/revisions folder, but moinmoin wiki insists the page does not exist. You can create a new page and then use the revert function to revert to the older version.
Discussion
When it happens next time, can you please check the contents of the "current" file in the page directory. Does it point at last_revision+1? -- ThomasWaldmann 2009-03-16 17:16:14
After clicking on the SAVE button in the page editor, do you click anywhere else afterwards before getting that deleted page problem? Do you use and browser extensions like accelerators or proxies or something else that is sitting between moin and your browser?
