Oddmuse Local

 

To make a local version of the Oddmuse ZhurnalyWiki on an Apple Macintosh under OS-X:

  • call the main script "wiki" and the Oddmuse current script "wiki.pl" * edit "wiki" to point to the local Oddmuse data directory and to the Oddmuse main Perl script:
  • $DataDir = '/Library/WebServer/Documents/oddmuse'; * do 'wiki.pl';
    • * change the file permissions to permit the web server to run the scripts * create the data directory "/Library/WebServer/Documents/oddmuse/" and change its permissions to permit the web server to read and write in it

    • copy the Oddmuse "config" file to the oddmuse data directory
    • create a directory "/Library/WebServer/Documents/oddmuse/modules/"
    • copy the Oddmuse modules to the modules directory
    • from the web browser visit http://localhost/cgi-bin/wiki and see if an empty HomePage is displayed
    • if desired, copy the files from http://zhurnaly.com/ oddmuse directory to create an image/replica including the historical versions of the files
    • alternatively, use wikicopy to copy the files over without their histories

  • alas, wikicopy (see [1]) needs Perl's LWP module (which I don't seem to have!)
