Trying to find out why the submit does not return correctly, I stumbled on the cgi error log file of Xitami.

I have no idea if there is a relation with the issue, but there are quite a number of disturbing warnings (they appear in case of opening a page and modifying it).

This can be because of Xitami, or a wrong php version, or Windows, or because it is running locally, or of installation errors...

However, if this can explain my submit pb, let me know.

PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET in OutputPage.php on line 388

Change the error reporting level in your php configuration to not include 'notices'. These are just telling us that the web server didn't report certain values from the http headers, so the magic array doesn't contain anything at those indices. We already know that because it will have returned NULL instead of a useful string. So, not very helpful. :)

PHP Warning: date() [<a href='http://www.php.net/function.date'>function.date</a>]: Unexpected error in DatabaseFunctions.php on line 117

Now that's the kind of error message I hate: "unexpected error"! Almost as good as "unknown error"...

That's in wfUnix2Timestamp(). I think the only thing that uses this is the last-modified check in OutputPage::checkLastModified(). You might try putting some debug checks into that function to check on the input to the function (make sure strtotime() is working and that the server variable comes through right).

Also, note that a lot of the time calls may break (returning the wrong time) if your timezone setting is not at GMT/UTC. I haven't tested that case.

These are all because it already spit out some error messages, and don't indicate any real problems.

Again, change the error reporting level (see above) to make these go away.

See above.
