Yes, I'm using a flat file. A while back, the wiki got spammed and there
were a bunch of pages created with /etc/passwd or database commands. I've
been removing those files in the page_data directory. I'd first copy them
to a backup directory, make sure the page was still visible (these were
generally a bunch of stuff tacked on to a page name), then, if the page
seemed to still be good, I deleted the file. Now, however, I discover that
I can't edit the pages.

What is the links directory? I thought pretty much everything was
contained in the page_data for each page (but perhaps links holds
backlinks?).

I thought the httpd error log would show the php errors, but I'm not
finding them there (I find other PHP errors).

It is, of course, true that /home/harold/BhWikiData/links/ is a directory,
but why is it trying to be opened? Should it instead be opening a file
within that directory?

I guess I'll dig into the code some once I can find some indication as to
what line of what PHP file is causing the issue.

THANKS for the quick response!

Harold
