OK, I finally got brave and downloaded a copy of Instiki. Specifically, instiki-ar-beta1.zip
The README says: Step 1. Download Step 2. Run "instiki" Step 3. Chuckle... "There's no step three!" (TM) This is not precisely true. It _is_ true that (on my OSX box) the zipfile unpacked itself automagically. I then went into the instiki-ar directory and ran instiki, as follows: > % cd ~/De*/instiki-ar > % instiki > ./script/../config/environment.rb:68:in `initialize': > No such file or directory - > /Local/_Private/Homes/rdm/Desktop/instiki-ar/config/database.yml >(Errno::ENOENT) > from ./script/../config/environment.rb:68:in `open' > from ./script/../config/environment.rb:68 > from ./script/server:42:in `require' > from ./script/server:42 > from instiki:6:in `load' > from instiki:6 > % ls config > database.default.yml environments > environment.rb routes.rb Uhuh. OK, I'm still feeling brave. > % cp config/database.default.yml config/database.yml > % instiki > => Instiki started on http://0.0.0.0:2500 > => Ctrl-C to shutdown; call with --help for options > [2006-01-20 00:42:01] INFO WEBrick 1.3.1 > [2006-01-20 00:42:01] INFO ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) [powerpc-darwin8.0] > [2006-01-20 00:42:01] INFO WEBrick::HTTPServer#start: pid=15639 port=2500 Looks promising, but when I tried the URL (http://localhost:2500), I got this nastygram: > No such file to load -- sqlite3 > /app/models/wiki.rb:82:in `setup?' > /app/controllers/wiki_controller.rb:17:in `index' > ./script/server:49 > instiki:6:in `load' > instiki:6 > Show framework trace > > This error occured while loading the following files: > sqlite3 > > Request > > Parameters: None > > Show session dump > > Response > Headers: {"cookie"=>[], "Content-Type"=>"text/html; charset=UTF-8", >"Cache-Control"=>"no-cache"} Gosh, OSX has sqlite3... > % which sqlite3 > /usr/bin/sqlite3 So, it looks like there SHOULD be a step 3. Anyone want to help this ruby/rails/instiki nuby get started? -r -- Technical editing and writing, programming, and web development: http://www.cfcl.com/rdm/resume Contact information: [EMAIL PROTECTED], +1 650-873-7841 _______________________________________________ Instiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/instiki-users
