Arash,
Here is what we did. Most of it is just standard, but one part caused me a lot 
of trouble.  

Find out what user the web server is running as.  It should be in an apache 
configuration file.  For us it is _www,  it used to be www,  and something else 
before.  It could be "nobody", but that is not a really good idea.  You can 
look at the directory /etc/apache2  or maybe /etc/httpd.  There  should be 
lines like


User  _www
Group _www

in a file called httpd.conf

Really what you want is the User line.  

Or ask somebody.  

Now delete the wiki.d directory and its contents.  recreate it at give it 
ownership of the User you found above.   Then start PmWiki.

Another possible way is to delete the wiki.d directory, then allow everyone 
write access to your public-html directory, run pmwiki to create the wiki.d 
directory for itself, and then change back the permissions on the public_html 
directory.  

But (at least on my system) I REALLY needed to delete the wiki.d directory.  
Just changing the permissions did not work. (And yes, I know that is not 
supposed to be the case, but it worked for me)
