Hello Koen,

I think it's mostly a documentation issue here, not really a bug with the setup. I am very new to dokuwiki, and have not set it up before today.

I followed the instructions here at first:

<http://www.dokuwiki.org/install:debian>

The section where it asks to copy the local.php.dist, I did.

Make sure you have the following set in local.php:

$conf['useacl']      = 1;

It does not seem necessary to do the chown, as the package has already set those permissions correctly (on my system at least).

All I had to do was create a new user via 'Login' link - if you don't see a 'Register' link below the login, make sure you have the following set (should be the default in dokuwiki.php):

$conf['openregister']= 1;

Now browse to the wiki and register a new user, (you will be emailed a password).

Registering a new user adds it to the users.auth.php file itself - you do not need to manually enter details.

Add that username to:

$conf['superuser']   = 'myadminuser';

I've got this working just less than an hour ago, so I am pretty confident the steps should work.

Obviously, you may want to turn off auto registration and the like after you've set up your admin user.

Good luck,

Sid
