  Under RHEL ES 3 w/ apache 2.0.46 + php 4.3.2 using mozilla 1.7.x or thunderbird 1.0.x
  
  Clicking the preview/save button randomly returns to the 'start' root page without saving. Any changes made to the page are lost. This behavior does not seem to be time related, seems to happen every three clicks or so.
  
  Thanks!

  Can you give any additional info. Is there a way to reliable reproduce the behaviour? What does the Apache log say? Can you install the Live-HTTP-Header-Extension from http://livehttpheaders.mozdev.org/index.html and monitor a full connection when doing a save or preview and the error occurs?

  The livehttpheaders thing is nifty, thanks!
  
  Also, I think I found the problem. I am using a custom apache module (duke webauth) to authenticate users into dokuwiki. The webauth cookie expires and must be refreshed every ten minutes. When this happens, the wiki state gets hosed somehow (not sure on the specifics yet).
  
  So this is not a bug in dokuwiki, just strange behavior in our webauth module.
  
  I would close this bug but I don't know much about flyspray and haven't quite figured out how.
  
  Sorry for the trouble, thanks for your help.
