Item2387: FORMFIELD reads from rcs file ... should read txt file

can you me a bit more specific - ie point out what makes you think this is so? and then how to reproduce it..

-- SvenDowideit - 20 Nov 2009

1. Set up Foswiki using fastcgi or mod_perl.
2. Create a topic with a Formfield.
3. Add a call to %FORMFIELD{"Formfield" topic="Tasks.Item2387"}%, best in a view template to repro the situation I have.
4. Change the value of Formfield and force a new revision.
5. Change the value of Formfield again and make sure the ,v wasn't touched
6. you should now see the changes from step (4) ... should be those of step (5)

Hope anybody will be able to confirm this error. That's better than wondering whether I f*ed up my personal install.

Most probably this is related to Foswiki::Meta's load logic. We had a similar problem recently where renaming a topic restored a previous version instead of using the one in the txt file.

Please anybody help. This is really an annoying bug related to the new Meta.pm code.

Might be similar to Item2299.

Found the error: Foswiki::Store::cleanUpRevID('') must return the latest revision, i.e. 0, not '1'.
