I can't get this working, tried several installations, plain. Older version of the plugin works.

The SkillsAdminIntroduction topic says the plugin is not enabled but I think it's the %IF that's wrong.

I try to use SKILLSPLUGIN_SKILLSTOPIC and copy from the example but when I select Category a pop up shows saying "Internal server error".

The logs indicates it's a rest call. It complains about missing skills.txt in work_areas also. but creating it changes nothing. It doesn't create it when using newest version of the plugin.

When trying to do a rename from SkillsAdminIntroduction an oops page with error: 500 is shown.

I also have the incorrect "not enabled" message in 1.1.4. The apache error log is full of entries like:
[Thu Mar 29 10:08:23 2012] [error] [client my.ip] Cannot find SKILLSPLUGIN_SKILLSTOPIC [[Main.MyTopic]], referer:
https://my.web.site/bin/view/System/SkillsAdminIntroduction
Even though Main.MyTopic is correct, and the link works from SitePreferences where it is defined. The error seems to arise from this code:
# loads the categories and skills from the topic (or file)
93   sub _load {
94       my $self = shift;
95   
96       return if $self->{nodes};
97   
98       my $topic = Foswiki::Func::getPreferencesValue('SKILLSPLUGIN_SKILLSTOPIC');
99   
100       if (!$topic) {
101           $self->_getSkillsFromWorking();
102       } else {
103   
104           (my $web, $topic) = Foswiki::Func::normalizeWebTopicName(
105               undef, $topic);
106   
107           if (!Foswiki::Func::topicExists($web, $topic)) {
108               print STDERR "Cannot find SKILLSPLUGIN_SKILLSTOPIC $web.$topic";
109               _getSkillsFromWorking();
110           }

I'm not a developer, and can't guess why it's failing.
