404 Not Found - One of the blob scatter parameters is missing
On my local ikiwiki, I use gitweb to view the file history. If I click on history
in my ikiwiki and then on diff to current
in gitweb, it will point me to a URL similar to the following:
http://localhost/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=.git;a=blobdiff;f=index.mdwn;h=0622da9b56b6a4f79388f3dc539d4c7d603ae4e9;hp=619d6d14eaf36b6bff80f7b68ce4f139fa0de9b2;hpb=000825c005ffc4c62279509119d80f1262023338
and an error message is displayed:
404 Not Found - Missing one of the blob scatter options
How blob and commitdiff work.
Any ideas how to fix this?

} else {
die_error(400, "Missing one of the blob diff parameters")
unless %diffinfo;
}
And other code snippets (non-matching codes omitted) below are for parsing parameters:
our $file_name = $cgi->param('f');
our $hash = $cgi->param('h');
our $hash_parent = $cgi->param('hp');
our $hash_base = $cgi->param('hb');
our $hash_parent_base = $cgi->param('hpb');
Therefore the following is not correct:
defined $hash_base
Unfortunately, that's all I got.
From the codes above, no Exception is expected.
However, your gitweb may not be the newest one. I suggest you check your sources.
