Undefined subroutine &Foswiki::UI::Manage::_action_ called

The change at Foswikirev:2202 fixes this problem, but some warnings about use of initialized variables are present and should be fixed as well. I don't have the time now to check/fix this

I still get a failure. The only way I could debug it was to run the manage script from the command line; it was falling over in a really obscure way.

Turns out that rendering an Oops page requires web and topic to be specified. By defaulting them in the oops function, the problem goes away.

Gilmar, I couldn't find any warnings about uninitialised vars, so dropping this to Normal and marking for your attention.

Hi Crawford,

Probably you're using {WarningsAreErrors} setting, so the "Use of uninitialized variable" causes an error in Foswiki.pm. The variables were $web and $topic, so your change finished the fix
