Use TOC file in Namespace - Specified Depth errors -Finished but download failed

[rgleason]

OpenCPN Basic User Manual
Entire Manual has been updated. We need to create portable User Manuals in epub, html & pdf.
We are using this Table of Contents in the namespace

This TOC has the following code using skipns to avoid writing all of the rest of the OpenCPN Manuals.

{{indexmenu>:opencpn:manual_basic#4|msort nsort nojs skipns=/(opencpn:manual_advanced|opencpn:manual_plugins|opencpn:user_community|opencpn:development_community|opencpn:development_manual|opencpn:editor_manual|opencpn:supplementary_hardware|opencpn:supplementary_software|opencpn:user_corner|opencpn:toc|opencpn:toc_manual_basic|opencpn:toc_manual_advanced)/}}

I have tried with the shorter more direct TOC code (without using skipns=) with similar results

{{indexmenu>:opencpn:manual_basic#4|msort nsort nojs}}

We navigate to this TOC and then select Admin in upper right, then Site Export.

• Set Namespace: opencpn:manual_basic:toc
• Parent Namespace: opencpn:manual_basic:toc
• Export Type: This page only
• Use TOC file in namespace checked
• Render Engine: (Blank, xhtml, ckgedit, dw2pdf, epub, all work with "This page only")
• Export Template: Dokuwiki
• Disable all JS/CSS plugins checked (also unchecked works too)
• All other checks are unchecked.

Selecting "This page only" works for us, creating epub, pdf and html.
Selecting "Specified depth" set as 1 or 2 (up to 5) results in "Finished but download failed."

We think we have tried everything to get this to build the manuals. Is it a new bug?
Do you have any suggestions?
If you need access I can provide it.

Today, in hope of getting this to export completely without timeout errors on the webserver, I tried a third type of Local installation using Xampp + Dokuwiki + OpenCPN data.

Please see https://forum.dokuwiki.org/d/22292-xampp-dokuwiki-installation which has a more complete description and error logs for everything (apache, mysql, dokuwiki)

I am getting the very same error "Finished but download failed" as with dokuwikistick above.

I have checked everything I could think of and this is a terrible disappointment.

Now I am thinking that the problem is with siteexport. Site Export tries to push downloads onto your PC across the internet. This local configuration is very different. It is running on a local Windows PC, not using the internet, and all it has to do is to place a file in the Download directory, so the programming and functions that need to be used are very different.

I need to configure SiteExport for that situation, if it is allowed or flexible enough. How can this be done?

Are these the answers to the problem?

Extract this into C:\xampp\htdocs\dokuwiki\lib\plugins\siteexport

replacing the files in the folder.

Local Install

When installing xampp locally into Windows 11 C:\xampp\ and then downloading your online dokuwiki with filezilla FTP and copying this into C:\xampp\htdocs\dokuwiki

PHP is located in C:\xampp\php
Make sure php.ini has

; Transparent output compression using the zlib library
; Valid values for this option are 'off', 'on', or a specific buffer size
; to be used for compression (default is 4KB)

zlib.output_compression=Off   <<<---------------TURNED ON

Then download and extract f161d4f
into C:\xampp\htdocs\dokuwiki\lib\plugins\siteexport

Actually here is the zip file

Disconnect from internet and Disable AV & FW
Open xampp as admin. Turn on apache and mysql.
Browser to http://localhost/dokuwiki

Follow the rest of Dokuwiki instructions.
