This happens when PHP hasn't been installed as an Apache module (i.e.,
if PHP is part of a CGI script). Try switching to using session-based
authentication -- i.e.,
include_once('scripts/sessionauth.php');
Because of the number of times this has popped up recently I'm thinking
about having PmWiki default to using session-based authentication if it
detects that it's running as a CGI script (can be overriden by an
$EnableSessionAuth variable, of course). Any comments?
