Installing PmWiki

If you upgrade, please read the page Upgrades and Release notes.

1. Download

Download the latest stable version of PmWiki as a

• zip archive (pmwiki-latest.zip ), or a
• gzipped tarball (pmwiki-latest.tgz ) from http://pmwiki.org/pub/pmwiki/ , or

Download the latest beta version from the PmWiki:Subversion page.

2. Unpack

Unpack the archive (tar zxvf pmwiki-latest.tgz or unzip pmwiki-latest.zip). This will create a pmwiki-x.y.z directory containing the PmWiki software. For example, the current "latest" should unpack to a directory named pmwiki-2.2.94. The files in this directory include:

  README.txt        An introductory document
  pmwiki.php        The main PmWiki script
  local/            Configuration scripts (local configuration files)
  cookbook/         Recipes (add-ons) from the Cookbook 
  docs/             Brief documentation, sample configuration scripts
  pub/              Publicly accessible files
  pub/css/          Extra CSS stylesheet files [1]
  pub/guiedit/
  pub/skins/        Layout templates for custom  look and feel
  scripts/          Scripts that are part of PmWiki
  wikilib.d/        Bundled default PmWiki pages

The pmwiki-x.y.z directory needs to be placed into a location accessible by your webserver (e.g., in a public_html directory of some sort). You can place files and directories using a number of methods -- FTP, or a Unix mv or cp command generally does the job.

3. Create directories

In most cases PmWiki will do this for you. Open a web browser to the pmwiki.php script on the server (i.e., not the one on your local computer or accessed using a file://... URL). PmWiki will then analyze your system configuration and provide instructions (if needed) for creating the wiki.d/ directory which will be used to hold the pages created for your site.

Otherwise, there are two ways to achieve this. (Use Filezilla or WinSCP to change FTP file/folder permissions.)

After establishing directory permissions, try opening a browser to the pmwiki.php script again. If all is well, the wiki.d directory will have been created and you'll see the default home page.

Important: If you used method 3b, you should reset permissions by executing "chmod 755 ." in the directory containing pmwiki.php.

See also FilePermissions.

4. Initialize

Check out Initial Setup Tasks for other tasks you may want to perform to begin customizing your PmWiki installation. You might also want to peruse the Release Notes for further information.

5. Set language

If you want to use PmWiki in a different language download the international language pack as zip archive (i18n-all.zip ) from http://pmwiki.org/pub/pmwiki/i18n/ . Then extract it and copy the files into the wikilib.d/ directory as described above. Besides the -all file you can also download your country localization file only.

Languages available are:

There are two directories in the decompressed i18n archive, scripts and wikilib.d. Copy the files respectively contained in these directories to the scripts and wikilib.d of your PmWiki directory. For example, for French localization, PmWikiFr.* and PmWiki.* must be contained in the same directory.

Then, enable localization by adding an instruction to local/config.php to load the language translation page of your choice. For instance, XLPage('fr','PmWikiFr.XLPage'); loads the French language page PmWikiFr.XLPage.

Notes

• The PmWiki distribution deliberately doesn't include an index.php file. You can easily add your own "wrapper script" in the same directory as pmwiki.php. Create a new file called index.php with the following single line of text (missing a closing " ?>" tag deliberately):
  <?php include_once('pmwiki.php');

Resist the temptation to rename pmwiki.php to index.php because if you rename the file it will not be overwritten during an upgrade.

• If using the Unix tar command to unpack the archive in step 2 above, be sure that the files are created with sufficient permissions for the webserver to be able to access them. Usually you can ensure this by typing umask 002 on the command line before unpacking the tar file.
• When installing on Windows you should take a look at Cookbook:SimultaneousEdits to enable simultaneous edits on that platform.
• Additional tips can be found at Troubleshooting.
