This is the INSTALL.txt file for PmWiki. This document provides
convenient steps so an administrator can have a PmWiki site up and
running quickly. More extensive information about installing PmWiki
is available at http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/Installation .
Once your site is up and running you will be able to read the bundled
documentation pages.
Here are some quick steps to start you on your path toward a complete,
customized installation:
1a) Put the software in a location accessible by your webserver.
1b) PmWiki can also be run if no webserver is installed. See
http://pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/Standalone
2) Point your browser to pmwiki.php.
3) You may see an error message saying that PmWiki needs to have
a writable wiki.d/ directory. If so, follow the directions to
establish one. This directory will hold your wiki page files.
4) If you want a directory index file, create a file called index.php
in the main directory that contains the following single line of
text, purposefully without a closing "?>":
<?php include('pmwiki.php');
5) Sitewide configuration settings will go in a "local configuration
file" named local/config.php. Copy the well-commented sample
configuration file from docs/sample-config.php to the local/
subdirectory, then rename the copy to config.php. Edit your
new local/config.php file to suit your preferences.
That's it. Next you'll probably want to browse your new site and
read the bundled documentation. A good place to start is the
PmWiki.InitialSetupTasks page.
Enjoy!
