Problem with editing FAQ and other pages at wiki

10 Jan 2013

      Hello!

I've tried editing wine FAQ and several other wiki pages, but failed. When
I click on "Preview" or "Save" buttons, I always see error message like

[Errno 31] Too many links:
'/var/www/wine/wiki/data/pages/AlexeiRomanoff(2f)MoinEditorBackup'

A problem occurred in a Python script. Here is the sequence of function
calls leading up to the error, in the order they occurred.

OSError

[Errno 31] Too many links:
'/var/www/wine/wiki/data/pages/AlexeiRomanoff(2f)MoinEditorBackup'

   - args = (31, 'Too many links')
   - errno = 31
   - filename =
   '/var/www/wine/wiki/data/pages/AlexeiRomanoff(2f)MoinEditorBackup'
   - strerror = 'Too many links'

It seems, something wrong happened at server side with MoinMoin. But how
could be possible to contribute, if wiki isn't editable?
I haven't found any specific mailing list or forum for wiki editors  and
decided to write here.
