Although the instructions I followed eventually got me to a working version of Ruby 1.8.4, etc, I suspect that I'll be better off following AM's advice than in trying to start from the Instiki Beta (which appears not to be compatible with the current version of Rails). So, I installed an svn client and downloaded the head: svn co http://svn.instiki.org/instiki/trunk instiki per AV's instructions on http://instiki.org/show/Subversion This appears to include a copy of Rails, so that issue may be out of the way. Getting brave, I tried to run it: % instiki ./vendor/rails/railties/lib/initializer.rb:424:in `read': No such file or directory - ./config/database.yml (Errno::ENOENT) ... OK, ./config/database.yml is missing. Look at the README, which tells me to: 3. Kill "instiki" >> It's not running. 4. Install SQLite 3 database engine from http://www.sqlite.org/ 5. Install SQLite 3 driver for Ruby from http://sqlite-ruby.rubyforge.org/ 6. Install Rake from http://rake.rubyforge.org/ >> I already have these. 7. Execute rm -f db/*.db >> No such files in this tree. 8. Execute 'rake migrate' % rake migrate (in /Local/_Private/Homes/rdm/pkgs/zip/instiki_head/instiki) rake aborted! No such file or directory - ./config/database.yml (See full trace by running task with --trace) So, I appear to really need a config/database.yml file and there doesn't seem to be a sample on hand. This sounds like the place where I ask AM to make good on his unwary promise. -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
