Thanks. That got me where I wanted to go for initial setup. Depending on how adept I become with this, I may want to setup wikis for my college students, and in that instance I'll want to go the route of a multi-wiki setup. I don't yet know if I'll prefer developing my contribution to those pages locally on my machine and transferring them to a server, but probably not initially. When it comes to course pages, I think I'll have to set up a multi-wiki MoinMoin on a server without having root privileges.

That brings me to my other as-yet unanswered question. I presume others have asked questions about such a setup that will be relevant to me. How does one search the moin-user archives using keywords?

Yes, it is supposed to be simple. Part of the problem is you have to leave the page to complete the steps.

Once you have a login id, then you can use that ID in the superuser line. For a personal desktop edition wiki, you add the superuser line to the ./wikiconfig.py file (as you have already done).

Restart the server and return to the LanguageSetup page. Login with your superuser ID and proceed with the language setup.

I think the "desktop edition" is intended for a single wiki rather than a farm. Maybe someone else can correct me or provide additional help.

I guess we have a different perspective of "complex setup". It seemed to me that the route I was going was pretty simple, would provide me with the ability to do multiple wikis like I wanted, and was only a couple of tweaks away from being complete.

What I had done following the "Quickstart" instructions was pretty simple as far as it went, but the Languagesetup page has me quite baffled.

 - Where do I put the superuser line?
There's a line like this in wiki/config/wikiconfig.py, but it seems to
        be purposefully absent from ./wikiconfig.py.  I added it there
        anyway, but don't see how to give a password.

This is supposed to be simple, right? I can't get this done to find out what comes next (language setup).
