Hi,  
 
I recently installed the EPF Wiki in C:\InstantRails2.0 (closely following  
the EPF wiki install guide). I spent yesterday experimenting with it. When  
I ran InstantRails.exe the first time, it asked if I would reset the  
configuration files. I only worked when I answered "OK".  
 
Without a user guide at hand I stumbled into some roadblocks.  
 
The \templates 20080828\ project site seemed to work just fine on the  
surface, but ...  
 
From the front page of http://myepfwiki/  
 
I choose "Create new page in ..." - "Templates"  
 
I get the error: No such file or directory -  
 C:/INSTAN~1.0/rails_apps/EPFWiki/public/bp/templates_2008082 8/new/guidances/termdefinitions/term_definition_template_A11 83691.html  
 
I don't have a C:/INSTAN~1.0 directory :(  
 
Seem like some of the configuration files have not been reset!?  
 
I then tried to publish a site from EPF 1.5M3 and import it into EPF Wiki.  
 
The published site is a directory of static web files. I then zip it and  
try to import. I get one folder level too much. OK, I must zip, not the  
containing folder but the files inside directly.  
Another options seems to be to copy the site folder directly into:  
 
C:\InstantRails2.0\rails_apps\[EPFWiki]\public\wikis  
 
Initially the Wiki tells me there are 0 pages in this newly created site.  
 
I look at the \templates 20080828\ project site and notice that it has a  
folder "new" containing all the content. Magically, when I rename a folder  
such as \base_concepts\ (containing OpenUP base concept definitions) to  
\new\, suddenly I am told the Wiki has found 560 pages. As I browse  
through the list of pages, I can see that the Wiki has only found the  
pages within the \new\ folder.  
 
I then try to create a new page:  
 
No such file or directory -  
 C:/INSTAN~1.0/rails_apps/EPFWiki/public/bp/templates_2008082 8/new/guidances/termdefinitions/term_definition_template_A11 83691.html  
 
So it seems, that my new Wiki has the same wrong configuration as the  
default \templates ...\ project.  
 
What to do!?  
 
I then do a search for files with text matching "INSTAN~1.0" inside  
C:\InstantRails2.0  
 
I find a log file, unzip_upload.log:  
 
Archive:  C:/INSTAN~1.0/rails_apps/EPFWiki/public/bp/Publish2..zip  
 
   creating:  
 C:/INSTAN~1.0/rails_apps/EPFWiki/public/bp/Publish2./Publish 2/  
 
  inflating:  
 C:/INSTAN~1.0/rails_apps/EPFWiki/public/bp/Publish2./Publish 2/about.htm    
 
I then make an educated guess that C:/INSTAN~1.0 must refer to  
C:\InstantRails1.0 as the file structure referenced mathced that of  
C:\InstantRails2.0  
 
I wonder if I could make the Wiki work simply by renaming  
C:\InstantRails2.0 to something where C:/INSTAN~1.0/rails_apps becomes a  
valid filelocation?  
 
What have I been doing wrong in my installation process? Any ideas out  
there?
