ok, i'm still open to advice on how to install kwiki on my fedora core 3 system. previously, a friend installed it for me on FC1, and i added a pile of pages. it may be that he installed or tweaked a few things of which i am unaware.
in any case, i backed up all of the directory /var/www/html/kwiki, installed FC3 fresh (an "everything" install, so it's not like i'm missing any of the standard components), and started restoring all of the previous user data. specifically, i restored all of /var/www/html/kwiki and, when i browse there, i can at least see the directory listings for the subdirectories, so at least *that's* confirmed. beyond that, i just have not been able to get the latest kwiki on this system. as before, i just followed the online install instructions at http://www.kwiki.org/?KwikiInstallation and ran # perl -MCPAN -e 'install Kwiki' which ultimately failed with: ===== BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at lib/Kwiki.pm line 4. Compilation failed in require at t/formatter3.t line 5. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at t/formatter3.t line 5. # Looks like your test died before it could output anything. t/formatter3....dubious Test returned status 2 (wstat 512, 0x200) FAILED--4 test scripts could be run, alas--no output ever seen make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 2 /usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK Running make install make test had returned bad status, won't install without force ===== against my better judgement, i tried a force: # perl -MCPAN -e 'force install Kwiki' and that ended exactly the same way. so, at this point, not being a perl wizard, i'm kind of stuck, and definitely open to suggestions. rday
