its been a while for me, running this on os x, but If I remember
correctly, running as witango -u is a good temporary workaround, but
not a good permanent fix. I don't remember all the reasons, but I do
remember that witango runs the way it does, from the SystemStarter,
to be more secure.
Anyway, I would double check on that, sorry I can't remember all the
reasons why. Maybe someone else can chime in.

Thanks for the help from you and from Witango customer support. I
appreciate it, as the Witango server is now running.
Here's the round up so far.
1] The installer fails to run the postinstaller script
This means that all the stuff that needs to be set up like the
Startup and various other file edits does not happen. I figured
that out by myself, BUT had not been unable to manually reconstruct
this sufficiently to make the server run.
That is, I copied over the Startup items directory, checked
permissions on it, etc. Tried it with and without changing /etc/
hostconfig by adding WITANGO=-YES-
no joy
What worked was this advice from the Witango customer support folks
In the terminal, cd to the directory containing witangod
run this command
./witangod -uo
I also found out that you need to start things in the following
sequence
Witangod
Apache2
or else I got a clients.ini error

SystemStarter will also work with
WITANGO55=-NO-
Witango just won't start at boot. If this server is a dev machine,
I usually leave it at NO, and only start when I need. If a server,
def make it YES.

For SystemStarter to work you need to have the Witango_5.5 in /
Library/StartupItems and the /etc/hostconfig needs to have
WITANGO55=-YES- in it. You can then use the following system
starter commands
