You are almost done! 0. You will need to manually adjust permissions for the installation script to run: $ chown -R apache:apache ${MY_INSTALLDIR} When you're done with the installation, don't forget to make sure that only the data/ and pub/ directories are writeable by the webserver!!! 1. Review ${MY_INSTALLDIR}/bin/LocalLib.cfg and make sure all paths are set correctly 2. Take a look at twiki_httpd_conf.txt and modify your Apache configs as needed. Make sure your webserver can execute ${MY_INSTALLDIR}/bin/configure Pay attention to the ExecCGI option (see https://bugs.gentoo.org/134132). 3. Visit http://${VHOST_HOSTNAME}/twiki/bin/configure Most values should have been automatically set for you. 4. Read the install guide http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/TWiki/TWikiDocumentation ======================================================================= If you are upgrading: Follow the manual upgrade procedure as described on http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/TWiki/TWikiUpgradeGuide
