Hello,

I downloaded the source for phpwiki and noticed that a patch file was available in the download area claiming to fix various issues.

I am aware of the 'patch' command in Linux, however this patch file offers no instructions so I am unsure how to actually apply it. I have both the source and patch in a directory and can access them.

Searches on the net seem to bring up guides on Kernel patching which is not what I am looking for.

The code directory is called:-
phpwiki-1.3.14

The patch is called:-
phpwiki-1.3.13p1-1.3.14.patch

Can anyone advise me on how to apply this?

Many Thanks,


Max.

patch -p0 < phpwiki-1.3.13p1-1.3.14.patch

You may have to change directories into the phpwiki directory. You may have to change the -p0 (which strips of leading path components from the directories indicated in the patch file), depending upon how the patch was made. It might be -p1, or -p2, but is usually just -p0.

Thanks,

I tried running patch < phpwiki-1.3.13p1-1.3.14.patch

and I got the following :-

Does this mean that the patch is not needed for this version and perhaps applies to an older version of the code?

Thanks Again,


Max.

More than probably, if it says the same for all the files.
