[Booki-dev] Installing objavi

[Jean-Noël Rivasseau]

I traced the source and the error happens on line 156 of objavi.cgi:

'book_options': optionise(twiki_wrapper.get_book_list(server), default=book),

This in turn calls:

def get_book_list(server):
    """Ask the server for a list of books.  Floss Manual TWikis keep
such a list at
    /bin/view/TWiki/WebLeftBarWebsList?skin=text but it needs a bit of
processing

    If BOOK_LIST_CACHE is non-zero, the book list won't be re-fetched
    in that many seconds, rather it will be read from disk.
    """

    url = config.CHAPTER_URL % (server, 'TWiki', 'WebLeftBarWebsList')
    #url = 'http://%s/bin/view/TWiki/WebLeftBarWebsList?skin=text' % server

However, the comment is wrong. The URL gives a 404 on the FLOSS
manuals servers....

Can anyone tell me if line 156 is the same for their working installation?
