Item14693: depend on new TopicTitlePlugin

-- MichaelDaum - 28 May 2018

Greetings; I updated the DBCache Plugin, and now I have to disable it for my Foswiki to work. When DBCache is enabled, I get this error: Foswiki detected an internal error - please check your Foswiki logs and webserver logs for more information.

Undefined subroutine &Foswiki::Plugins::DBCachePlugin::getTopicTitle called

The Apache logs have the same "Undefined subroutine" error.

I'm running 2.1.6 in a subdirectory, on CentOS (Cloudlinux 7.5), Apache 2, Perl 5.24 fcgid. The configure extensions shows TopicTitlePlugin (TTP) as installed. When I tried to install TTP (along with several other plugins) from the configure > extensions GUI, the install process did not complete. It would end and say "installation complete" but I could reopen the update window, not select any plugins, click update, and it would re-install all of the other plugins except TTP. I did an ssh into the server and manually installed TTP (not as root user). After that, I could reopen the configure > extensions update window, not select any plugins, click update, and it didn't do anything.

Known issue. See also Support.Question1942

Quickfix:

Replace

Foswiki::Plugins::DBCachePlugin::getTopicTitle

with

Foswiki::Func::getTopicTitle

... as long as not all plugins have been released yet.

Status of plugins

• BreadCrumbsPlugin
• DBCachePlugin
• FlexWebListPlugin
• ICalPlugin
• MetaCommentPlugin
• MoreFormfieldsPlugin
• PiwikPlugin
• SolrPlugin
• WebLinkPlugin
• JQDataTablesPlugin
• ListyPlugin
• MetaDataPlugin
• NatSkinPlugin
• ClassificationPlugin

Not all of above plugins are currently broken. Most of them had a local implementation of a getTopicTitle(). These will be replaced with the new api.

Thanks! I edited lib/Foswiki/Plugins/NatSkinPlugin/HtmlTitle.pm and now all is well. Great software, great support!
