Step 3 on http://www.pmichaud.com/wiki/PmWiki/Installation says:

Temporarily change the permissions on the directory containing pmwiki.php directory to 2777. In Unix this is normally done by changing to the directory containing pmwiki.php and executing "chmod 2777 ." (note the dot at the end). This will (1) make the directory writable so the web server can create the data directory it needs for the wiki files, and (2) preserve group ownership of the directory so the installer account can manipulate the files created in this directory. 

Problem.  What do you do if you are using an FTP program to access your server, and you don't have access to 2777.  Can you use 777 instead?
