You're running pmwiki-2.0.6.

The problem is that your server's clock is wrong -- it thinks the
current date is August 3, 2002.  Since all of the pages have been 
modified since that time, your authors are getting the "this page 
appears to have been modified since you started editing it" message 
every time the author attempts to save the page.

Try setting the server's clock to the correct time.  If that's 
not possible for one reason or another, you can disable the 
simultaneous edit check entirely by setting the following in config.php:

    $EnableSimulEdit = 0;
