Let me summarise, to see if I have the picture correct:
- you have per page uploads, with $UploadsPrefixFmt = '/$Group/$Name'
- you have a wikiform-based group with pagenames of the form ddddd
- upload works on regular pages like HomePage -- pmwiki creates
uploads/Group/HomePage/
- upload doesn't work on Group.00001 -- it just hangs before
creating the directory
- the same happens when you create Group.00009 manually via the
standard pmwiki Edit form
- the same happens when you disable the wikiform recipe
- the same happens when you force a non-numeric uploads directory
with $UploadsPrefixFmt = '/$Group/U$Name'
- it works when you create Main.00001 via a standard pmwiki Edit,
ie a numeric page in a different group!
I am baffled, I'm afraid. Let us hope that setting up a new
forms group makes the problem go away. Note that wikiform
uses pmwiki's edit function to post its pages, so I can't think
of a reason why it would interfere with the upload action.
Since disabling wikiforms has no effect, there must be something
else going on.
