I had posted the above problem in Support web. I did not get any support. Hence I decided to post it as a bug. Please fix the bug as soon as possible.

Running a TWiki on a Linux server and using Windows XP clients is probably what 90% of us do.

I have not seen such a problem before.

Based on the fact that the log says BaseUserMapping _666 (Guest) tells me that you have the authentication setup wrong.

You need to give much more feedback to get to the bottom of this.

Your complete LocalSite.cfg and your apache config would be good. Remove the passwords.

No feedback. No action

Kenneth, Sorry for the delay. Here by I am sending the LocalSite.cfg and apache config as attachments. I am expecting the bug to be fixed very soon. I has removed the DefaultUrlhost,WebMasterEmail,PROXY {HOST in the LocalSite.cfg.

-- TWiki:Main.SrikanthRevanuru - 29 Jul 2008

From the attached LocalSite.cfg it is clear that there are some non standard plugins installed and also some ldap stuff.

If the reporter ever comes back over here at Foswiki - please try without these.

There is not more I can do.

No action. Reopen if you have news
