Description
I'm logged in to GDAL Trac.
I'm trying to create new page by editing the URL to access non-existing Wiki page, namely:
https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/GeneratingVisualStudioProject
I expect to see a button to confirm I want to create/edit the new page.
Instead, I get this error:
Trac Error Page GeneratingVisualStudioProject not found
Change History (8)

Yes, I see the button on at least two instances, OSGeo and GEOS I'm member a Trac admin on both.
On GDAL Trac, I'm not member of admins.

Is there any other trac instance where you can create wiki pages while not being admin ?

Sorry, looking at permissions for GDAL I indeed see that wiki creation is not granted to authenticated users.
Here are the perms:
trac_gdal=# select * from permission where action like 'WIKI%'; username | action ---------------+------------- anonymous | WIKI_VIEW developers | WIKI_ADMIN authenticated | WIKI_MODIFY sgillies | WIKI_CREATE (4 rows)
And you are not in the "developers" group Mateusz:
trac_gdal=# select * from permission where action = 'developers'; username | action -------------+------------ dron | developers warmerdam | developers dmorissette | developers tamas | developers rouault | developers hobu | developers schwehr | developers jratike80 | developers (8 rows)
Note that all developers also have TRAC_ADMIN, so ask any of them about the policy.

Sandro, thanks for figuring out.
Even, could you add me to the 'developers' group in Trac, please?
Does it happen with all trac instances ? I do see a create button [here](https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/wiki/Test), for example, do you ?
Does the error page you see give you any information about your login status ? (as I've seen reports about missing cookies).
