You said that pmwiki.php is in the top-level directory, let us indicate it as / So you should have this structure on your server: /pmwiki.php (and you should type in your browser's addressfield http://whereyourwebsitelives/pmwiki.php to activate your wiki!) whereyourwebsitelives ist NATURALLY something like www.google.com not Google but yours! See above!) /local/config.php /doc/sample-config.php (so this file you renamed and copied it to / but it must be in /local !!!!) /wikilib.d/.... ( a lot of files) /wiki.d/... (will be created if you create new pages in your wiki!) /pub/... (here scripts and the skins etc. are living) ... (not interesting at this moment)

[Peter K.H. Gragert] Please do the comparison! Only uncomment (for this moment) the indicated lines to start! Indeed as Neil said in an other post, uncomment only what you understand, but those I indicated are more or less necessary to get you going. > -And then I went (uncommented out too)to the > $ScriptUrl & > $PubDirUrl sections > >[Peter K.H. Gragert] See above. Give us the address of your web server or trying an example Suppose your website lives at http://www.karina.com then those lines should become: $ScriptUrl = 'http://www.karina.com/pmwiki.php'; $PubDirUrl = 'http://www.karina.com/pub'; OK? [Peter K.H. Gragert] By the way Lines in config.php with ## in front of a line are meant as comment, meaning do not remove ever These lines document a line with only one # at the beginning Hi Everyone, Thanks SO much for your help. The site name is: www.hispanic.org Just to make sure I have this set up right: *Root directory has 1 folder: "pmwiki-2.2.0-beta" --> I renamed to "pmwikis" **Clicking on "pmwikis" folder: there are the 6 folders: "cookbook,docs, local, pub, scripts, wikilib.d" & "pmwiki.php" ***I put the "config" file in the "local" folder as Neil directed.(thx for the explanation) I have tried: $ScriptUrl = 'http://www.hispanic.org/pmwiki.php' $PubDirUrl = 'http://www.hispanic.org' $ScriptUrl = 'http://www.hispanic.org/pmwikis/pmwiki.php' $PubDirUrl = 'http://www.hispanic.org/pub' $ScriptUrl = 'http://www.hispanic.org/pmwikis/pmwiki.php' $PubDirUrl = 'http://www.hispanic.org/pmwikis/pmwiki.pub' It still isn't doing anything. Thanks for the explanation about which lines to uncomment as well.(& bottom vs. top posting- got it) I read most folks have this set up in 10 minutes - yikes! I'm pretty unsavvy tech-wise, but, eventually after alot of questions (thx so much for your help!)...I'll get it. I put up a content management system based template site a few months ago - i was lost initially!, but now I'm fairly passable & can load plug ins as well- as long as not too complex :D Hopefully that will happen here too! Thanks for helping so much! Karina _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
