Comments on: Ease of Installation: DokuWiki, PHP, files http://kylecordes.com/2008/easy-install-php-files Software, Business, and Life Tue, 20 Dec 2011 16:22:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Craig Buchek http://kylecordes.com/2008/easy-install-php-files/comment-page-1#comment-26756 Craig Buchek Wed, 22 Oct 2008 20:17:39 +0000 http://kylecordes.com/2008/10/19/easy-install-php-files/#comment-26756 I hadn't really thought about the underlying principle of simplicity -- I just like DokuWiki because it's very easy to set up, and has all the features I need. I even use it as a CMS for my personal web site. It's also nice to be able to access the wiki pages without having to bring up the web server or database, if necessary. Sorry I did not get you my install instructions in a timely fashion. But as I said, it's pretty darn simple to install. (I wasn't even aware of the now 2-year-old through-the-web install page; I always edit the config file by hand.) I've documented how I installed and configured 2 of my DokuWiki instances. The first is more thorough on the installation and config: http://wiki.boochtek.com/build/wiki , while the 2nd one has info on upgrading: http://wiki.sluug.org/build/wiki Craig I hadn’t really thought about the underlying principle of simplicity — I just like DokuWiki because it’s very easy to set up, and has all the features I need.
