Item968: Some problems with renaming SystemWebName

Rename the Web System

mv data/System data/FWsystem
mv pub/System pub/FWsystem

$Foswiki::cfg{SystemWebName} = 'FWsystem';

but there are more lines with the name System:

$Foswiki::cfg{TemplatePath} =
$Foswiki::cfg{Plugins}{WebSearchPath} =
...
          'System' => 'TWiki',
          'TWiki' => 'System'
...
$Foswiki::cfg{AuthRealm} =

I move up the line before the first hardcoded System

$Foswiki::cfg{SystemWebName} = 'FWsystem';

and change all with hardcoded System to the $Foswiki::cfg{SystemWebName} .

As I can see it works!

The generated LocalSite.cfg should be tuned (if possible)

Configure - Install Extension

Second I tried to install the Extension TopicUserMappingContrib. It recreate the System web and writes some topic there:

foswiki]# ls data/System/
BulkRegistration.txt   ChangeEmailAddress.txt  LoginName.txt      NewUserTemplate.txt  TopicUserMappingContrib.txt  UserRegistration.txt  UsersTemplate.txt
BulkResetPassword.txt  ChangePassword.txt      ManagingUsers.txt  ResetPassword.txt    UserForm.txt                 UserSetting.txt       UserToolsCategory.txt

After that it installs the topic correct to the right place - here in FWsystem.

The install should be fixed not to use the hardcoded System web. Perhaps workingdir could be used for unpacking and cleaned after install is complete.

I think this is actually a repeat of another bug Item2221, addressed in Item2333, where $Foswiki::cfg vars were being expanded in LocalSite.cfg, meaning a subsequent change to the driving var wouldn't bubble through.

Foswiki.spec is correct (uses the symbolic name) so pretty sure this is fixed in trunk. Marking as no-action.
