Adding alias for moin_static171. This is needed for img and CSS to work correctly.

Steps to Install
Derived from http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=206853
Install Required Packages
Required packages are as follows:
- python-moinmoin (Which should point to the proper python version)
- apache2 webserver
sudo apt-get install python-moinmoin sudo apt-get install apache2
Create a Wiki With "wikiname"
Create a wiki called "wikiname" and set the permissions.
cd /usr/share/moin sudo mkdir wikiname sudo cp -R data wikiname sudo cp -R underlay wikiname sudo cp server/moin.cgi wikiname sudo chown -R www-data.www-data wikiname sudo chmod -R ug+rwx wikiname sudo chmod -R o-rwx wikiname
Configure MoinMoin to Locate "wikiname"
Relevant MoinMoin config files are located in /etc/moin/
Edit /etc/moin/farmconfig.py, and after the line "wikis = [" add your "wikiname". For a single instance wiki, this would entail renaming the following line from:
("mywiki", r".*"),
to
("wikiname", r".*"),
Copy the /etc/moin/mywiki.py file to /etc/moin/wikiname.py:
sudo cp /etc/moin/mywiki.py /etc/moin/wikiname.py
Edit the /etc/moin/wikiname.py and change all instances of mywiki to wikiname. In addition to this, change the data dir to point to your local installation of MoinMoin:
data_dir = '/usr/share/moin/wikiname/data'
Make apache ready for your wiki
Insert into /etc/apache2/sites-available/default (inside of the "<VirtualHost *>" tag)
### moin ScriptAlias /wikiname "/usr/share/moin/wikiname/moin.cgi" alias /wiki "/usr/share/moin/htdocs" alias /moin_static171 "/usr/share/moin/htdocs" <Directory /usr/share/moin/htdocs> Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory> ### end moin
Restart apache to apply your changes:
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
See if it works
Go to your wiki's homepage:
http://127.0.0.1/wikiname Or try the test command:
http://127.0.0.1/wikiname?action=test
Next Steps
Security
You should probably set up PasswordProtectedEditing and investigate other security stuff: SecurityPolicy.
Troubleshootings
Server Name warning
apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
Solution:
- Add in /etc/apache2/apache.conf the following:
ServerName <hostname>
Where <hostname> is your actual host name, like www.google.com or IP like 89.234.12.45
Permission denied
(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 no listening sockets available, shutting down
