Re: [Gnumed-devel] owiki install on hherb.com

[David Grant]

I say someone should go ahead with moinmoin ASAP, or go with twiki for 
the mean time...

The main thing that needs to be configured on horst's twiki is, renaming:

http://hherb.com/cgi-bin/twiki/view/TWiki/TWikiRegistrationPub

to:

http://hherb.com/cgi-bin/twiki/view/TWiki/TWikiRegistration

since the latter (the default) is for intranet installs and requires a 
user login name for the intranet or whatever... we don't want that.  
This is the most common complaint/issue with twiki installs.  It is too 
bad Debian still hasn't hacked twiki to make the first one the default.  
This is mentioned on 
http://hherb.com/cgi-bin/twiki/view/TWiki/TWikiInstallationGuide:

"*Copy* the TWikiRegistrationPub 
<http://hherb.com/cgi-bin/twiki/view/TWiki/TWikiRegistrationPub> topic 
to TWikiRegistration 
<http://hherb.com/cgi-bin/twiki/view/TWiki/TWikiRegistration>, 
overwriting old version of TWikiRegistration. Do that by either editing 
the topics in theTWiki web, or by renaming the |.txt| and |.txt,v| files 
in the |twiki/data/TWiki| directory."

Then someone can create a new web GnuMed, at:

http://hherb.com/cgi-bin/twiki/view/TWiki/ManagingWebs

Then we can copy the txt files from my twiki.  Then moinmoin later.  
Someone should just be given access to install it if they want and then 
it can be tested.  I've also heard about kwiki which is becoming 
popular.  Too many choices!
