Description

Install Desktop edition on Windows XP Professional machine. Use wikiserverconfig.py to try and change default interface away from localhost or default port away from 8080. Wiki starts up OK but fails to serve any pages. Instead it throws an exception per GET request.

Steps to reproduce

• Install Desktop edition.

• In the same directory as moin.exe, create the following wikiserverconfig.py file:

  C:\DOCUME~1\ggraha\Desktop\STAGIN~1\MMDE>more wikiserverconfig.py
  from __main__ import DefaultConfig
  class Config(DefaultConfig):
      port = 7777
      interface = "localhost"

• run moin.exe

• From MSIE 6.0, access page at http://localhost:7777

• MSIE browser displays "Page cannot be displayed" and exception appears in the moin server window.

Details

I got the following output from the server and traceback:

C:\DOCUME~1\ggraha\Desktop\STAGIN~1\MMDE>moin
Loading ...
MoinMoin - 1.3.4 [patch-723; DesktopEdition Release 1.3.4-2]

Just close this window to shutdown MoinMoin DesktopEdition.

Workaround

There is no workaround.

Discussion

Can I see the contents of your wikiconfig.py file?
