[pmwiki-users] Standalone Problems

[OBUTEX / Hladůvka]

As for standalone on WinXP on my notebook it runs fine.
The folder "server" is in the same root folder as other folders like 
"wiki.d", "local" ...
In that root folder I have the file "index.php" with only 1 line without 
CRLF which is
<?php include('pmwiki.php');
On my desktop I have a shortcut to ...\server\pmwikiserv.bat which is in 
the "server" folder with an option run minimized.
After starting that bat file the URL for my browser is
http://localhost/wiki
which runs without any problem.


As for Abyss the PmWiki folders should be placed in "htdocs" for example 
.../htdoc/pmwiki/...
You can run it using http://localhost/pmwiki/pmwiki.php or better using 
index.php mentioned above (and set in Abyss configuration) use URL 
http://localhost/pmwiki

Hope it helps,
Jiri
