Description

Sometimes, if files in the underlay directory have wrong permissions, the system behaves incorrectly but does not display an error message. Happens on 1.5.7 (Python 2.4.4 on a Debian etch).

Steps to reproduce

  1. chmod a-r [underlay_directory]/pages/RecentChanges/current
  2. Try to visit RecentChanges in your wiki.

Result: You get a message that the RecentChanges page does not exist and the wiki offers to create it.

Expected result: The system should have shown an error and a traceback.
