Just to note, this bug only affects ZWiki version after Zwiki 0.10.0rc1.Also, the fix is pretty trivial, apply the following patch to standard_error_message in all ZWiki folders (and on disk, so you don't have to do it again ;-):

I could not find any likely page matching

Sadly, I see I broke the bug tracker, 'cos it's also a ZWiki, and has
MUCH bigger problems than the above :-S (execution of any DTML in the
context of (hopefully!) the user that created it along with a total lack
of html quoting in the page :-(
In short, only use ZWiki if you know what you're doing, and preferably only if it's not anonymously accessible...
*sigh*
