I checked the logs. They are full of entries like these: [Thu Nov 10 08:06:36 2016] [error] 2016-11-10 08:06:36,257 INFO MoinMoin.security.textcha:159 TextCha: failure (u='x.x.x.x', a='van', re='[Never match for cheaters]', q='What is van Rossum's fir', rsn='TypeError during signature check')
Here's the associated code: http://hg.moinmo.in/moin/1.9/file/561b7a9c2bd9/MoinMoin/security/textcha.py#l129 What's strange is the truncated question and the TypeError. I've put Thomas Waldmann on CC. Perhaps he can add some more insights. Thomas: I have upgraded the moin installation to 1.9.9 and we're getting lots of textcha errors since then. Questions get truncated and TypeErrors appear to prevent any textcha from succeeding, it seems. Any ideas ?
