Description

Using DesktopEdition Release 1.5.0 (patch-375; DesktopEdition Release 1.5.0-1) on a Windows 2000 box, I keep getting TypeError exceptions (args = ('unsubscriptable object',)) in the request.run method whenever I access the site using IE. FireFox works fine, though.

Steps to reproduce

1. Install DesktopEdition and start the server.

2. Connect to the site using (non-english) IE 6.0

Example

MoinMoinBugs/DesktopEditionGivesTypeErrorWithInternetExplorerTraceback.html

contains

Traceback (most recent call last):

Workaround

Configure browser to prefer English (see below).

Discussion

• Hmm. I seem to have misread the HTML traceback; it's getText that fails, not run. Could this be a localization error? I'll investigate. -- FredrikLundh 2006-01-23 08:20:43

  • Yes, it is a broken sv language file. You can set your browser to english, create an account and use the wiki afterwards.

    • Worked fine. Thanks! -- FredrikLundh 2006-01-24 10:20:22

Note that this bug is specific to DesktopEdition. My scripts did not package all languages -- AlexanderSchremmer 2006-01-24 23:59:38
