  Fedora Core 4 - fully patched.
  Apache 2.0.54 installed using RPM from Fedora Extras.
  PHP 5.0.4 installed
  
  httpd.conf, httpd/conf.d/*, php.ini are all stock files.
  
  Installed Dokuwiki-07-13 in /var/www/html/wiki, touched changes.log, edited .htaccess to enabled rewriter, and created local.php to enable the userewrite option, and acls.
  
  http://127.0.0.1/wiki shows the Doku header and footer, but the start page content is not there.
  Login, the content still not there, but the empty frame does have an EDIT button.
  
  If I choose edit, I can see the content of the start.txt file. If I save, with or without changes, the changes are saved, but they still do not show up in the frame between the normal Dokuwiki header and footer.
  
  Essentially, the show action is not rendering the files, but the edit action can work with them just fine.

  Your debug.txt above is empty!? Did you try to get it work without rewriting first?

  I did try without rewriting rules, as well as with.
  I have attached another debug.txt, and I have doublechecked that the debug.txt file on my disk has all of the content... did the php.ini and php.conf come through okay?

  Hmm is this bug still current? There could be a problem with Fedoras SE Linux extension. I have nearly no experience with it but I think there should be some log of denied readaccesses available. However this is just a wild guess.

  Sorry for the delay in responding. Between work, school, and a vacation, time is nonexistent.
  To answer your question, yes this bug is current.
  From what I can find, the problem is specifically with my machine. The install that generated the logs before happened on a heavily modified Fedora Core 4 server, and suspect the problem is really somewhere in the OS or webserver supporting Doku. I disabled SELinux completely, reinstalled, and have the same results. Once school is over for the semester, and i have some time, I will try to shoehorn in a complete rebuild which should fix it.
  Or, I will move to Solaris x86 and problem is solved either way. So, I think you can close or delete this bug report. Thanks for taking a look at it.

  Hi,
  
  I have the same problem with long pages. My page is 24Kb, and it won't appear.
  
  To clarify, this is what I did:
  1. create a short page -- shows up fine
  2. edit it and it becomes a long page -- edit shows fine, preview shows fine, but "save" will show the page as empty
    note that even the 'css', 'dokuwiki', etc icons are not shown on this stage
  3. edit it again so that the long page becomes an old revisions
  4. click on the old revisions page, ie: the long page link is http://somewhere.com/path:my_page?rev=1175271456 -- the long page would shows up okay
  5. but if I changed it into the latest revision, it would shows empty again (http://somewhere.com/path:my_page is empty)
  
  Any idea how to work around this?

  http://www.sympa.org/wiki/test is a very long page (>200kb) and though it takes time to display the page, it works. I don't think the size of the page is related to the original reported problem.
  
  Robert, feel free to attach the source of one of your pages which shows a problem to this issue so we can try in our wikis and see if your problem is OS related.

  I think we can close this.
  
  The original bug wasn't repeatable.  Ogautama's issue is likely to be different and could be a result the more common issues with large pages, primarily php running out of resources (e.g. mem).  I don't believe any conclusions can be drawn from the information give without provision of php error logs.
  
  Ogautama if you still have this issue and are using a current version of DokuWiki (if not upgrade to it), please:
  - try pasting the page content into the playground at www.dokuwiki.org and seeing if it can render the page
  - check PHP's memory settings (memory_limit) and if possible increase it.
  - open a new bug report along with for any pertinent information from your php error logs and if possible the content of the problem page.
