Yep Here is exactly what I did: Updated Ruby to 1.8.4 (because I have OSX and it only comes with 1.8.2) Updated my .bashrc file to put /usr/local/bin at the start of my PATH (so 'which ruby' returns '/usr/local/bin/ruby' ) Downloaded, built and installed SWIG (the documentation on the Instiki site said that this was needed for OSX). Used gem to install the SQLite3 adapter. Downloaded instiki-0.11.0.tgz to my desktop Double-clicked the .tgz file Dragged the instiki-0.11.0 folder into my home directory Fired up terminal and typed: cd inst<tab> ./inst<tab> Launched Safari and typed <Cmd>-L localhost:2500 <ret> Started answering the questions to create my wiki. It's running right now, on port 80, in daemon mode. I've been collaborating with a few other people on a publication. What I did NOT do was install the latest SQLite 3. Tiger comes with 3.1.3 and that seems to do the job. I guess it's possible that SQLite3 and the Ruby driver for it are out of synch. Other than installing SWIG and not installing SQLite 3 I just followed the README file. I don't really have a clue why it's not working for you but it is working for others so keep the faith. --- Neither a man nor a crowd nor a nation can be trusted to act humanely or to think sanely under the influence of a great fear. -Bertrand Russell, philosopher, mathematician, author, Nobel laureate (1872-1970) _______________________________________________ Instiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/instiki-users
