Link to download is not functioning

[Cowboy]

Is there a problem with this plugin? I can not download because there is no link on the Wiki.

Thanks

The InterMapTxt has been overwritten lately... I restored the download: prefix, but I guess a server restart would be needed (generic problem with IWikiChangeListeners...)

After that, the download:discussionplugin link should give you the proper download link, which is: ​http://trac-hacks.org/changeset/latest/discussionplugin?old_path=/&format=zip

For AutoWikifyPlugin I found I had to add the following (hackish) code to clear the regex cache:

WikiSystem(self.env)._compiled_rules = None

Something similar (or an additional method for doing this) would probably fix the problem.

InterMapTxt seems to have been overwritten by a wiki upgrade. This is probably not ideal.

No, this is due to the fact of having multiple server processes for Trac, when using some web front-ends (i.e. mod_python, Apache prefork): the InterMapTxt save operation is done in one process, and by the way of the IWikiChangeListener that change is correctly propagated to the InterWikiMap component... but only inside that process, of course.

Subsequent requests reaching other processes still deal with InterWikiMap components that were not notified of the change.

Actually this is similar to the problem of updating the cached list of all Wiki pages. Currently the solution for this is quite heavy-weight (periodically refreshing the cache) and I think we should find a way to improve that in the future.

Eh, that's the risk for early adopters... But I'm afraid some kind of manual merge is always needed in such cases.

It seems like pretty bad form to overwrite a page which by design is meant to be modified by end users.

I suggest we add InterMapTxt to the page load ignore list in trac/scripts/admin.py:

            self._do_wiki_load(default_dir('wiki'),
                               ignore=['WikiStart', 'checkwiki.py',
                                       'InterMapTxt'])

Sure, I forgot about this feature.

Oops, not exactly what's needed, but I'll do something similar: only insert that page if it doesn't already exist.
