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?

Kristian
