Configuration

Could not find existing configuration file /usr/local/www/twiki/lib/LocalSite.cfg.

This may be because this is the first time you have run configure.

If so, please fill in the required paths in the General path settings section below and click 'Next' to save before returning to configure to complete configuration.

If you previously ran configure and saved the configuration, then please check for the existence of lib/LocalSite.cfg, and make sure the webserver user can read it.

PATH_INFO

For a URL such as http://localhost/foo/bar, the correct PATH_INFO is /foo/bar, without any prefixed path components. Test PATH_INFO now - particularly if you are using mod_perl, Apache or IIS, or are using a web hosting provider. Look at the new path info here. It should be /foo/bar.

mod_perlNot used for this script

mod_perl is not loaded into Apache

CGI useruserid = ian groups = wheel,wheel,operator

Your CGI scripts are executing as this user.

Original PATH/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/root/bin

This is the PATH value passed in from the web server to this script - it is reset by TWiki scripts to the PATH below, and is provided here for comparison purposes only.

Current PATH/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/root/bin

This is the actual PATH setting that will be used by Perl to run programs. It is normally identical to {SafeEnvPath}, unless that variable is empty, in which case this will be the webserver user's standard path..

General path settings 8 warnings
If you are a first-time installer; once you have set up the next six paths below, your TWiki should work - try it. You can always come back and tweak other settings later.

Security Note: Only the URL paths listed below should be browseable from the web. If you expose any other directories (such as lib or templates) you are opening up routes for possible hacking attempts.

This is the root of all TWiki URLs e.g. http://myhost.com:123.
Warning: I guessed this setting. You are advised to confirm this setting (and any other guessed settings) and hit 'Next' to save before changing any other settings.
{DefaultUrlHost}δ
If your host has aliases (such as both www.twiki.org and twiki.org, and some IP addresses) you need to list them to tell TWiki that redirecting to them is OK. TWiki uses redirection as part of its normal mode of operation when it changes between editing and viewing. The security setting {AllowRedirectUrl} is per default disabled making redirecting to other domains restricted to prevent TWiki from being used in phishing attacks to protect it from middleman exploits. You can add additional URLs to this setting to enable redirects to additional trusted sites. Enter as comma separated list of URLs or hostnames. The URL must be in the format http://your.domain.com.
{PermittedRedirectHostUrls}
This is the 'cgi-bin' part of URLs used to access the TWiki bin directory e.g. /twiki/bin
Do not include a trailing /.

See http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/TWiki.ShorterUrlCookbook for more information on setting up TWiki to use shorter script URLs.

Warning: This web server does not set REQUEST_URI or SCRIPT_NAME so it isn't possible to guess this setting.
{ScriptUrlPath}δ
Attachments URL path e.g. /twiki/pub

Security Note: files in this directory are *not* protected by TWiki access controls. If you require access controls, you will have to use webserver controls (e.g. .htaccess on Apache)

Warning: I guessed this setting. You are advised to confirm this setting (and any other guessed settings) and hit 'Next' to save before changing any other settings.
{PubUrlPath}δ
Attachments store (file path, not URL), must match /twiki/pub e.g. /usr/local/twiki/pub
Warning: I guessed this setting. You are advised to confirm this setting (and any other guessed settings) and hit 'Next' to save before changing any other settings.
{PubDir}δ
Template directory e.g. /usr/local/twiki/templates
Warning: I guessed this setting. You are advised to confirm this setting (and any other guessed settings) and hit 'Next' to save before changing any other settings.
{TemplateDir}δ
Topic files store (file path, not URL) e.g. /usr/local/twiki/data
Warning: I guessed this setting. You are advised to confirm this setting (and any other guessed settings) and hit 'Next' to save before changing any other settings.
{DataDir}δ
Translation files directory (file path, not URL) e.g. /usr/local/twiki/locales
Warning: I guessed this setting. You are advised to confirm this setting (and any other guessed settings) and hit 'Next' to save before changing any other settings.
{LocalesDir}δ
Directory where TWiki stores files that are required for the management of TWiki, but are not normally required to be browsed from the web. A number of subdirectories will be created automatically under this directory:
  • {WorkingDir}/tmp/ - used for security-related temporary files (these files can be deleted at any time without permanent damage)
    • Passthrough files are used by TWiki to work around the limitations of HTTP when redirecting URLs
    • Session files are used to record information about active users - for example, whether they are logged in or not.
    For obvious reasons, these files must not be browseable from the web! Additionally you are recommended to restrict access rights to this directory so only the web server user can create files.
  • {WorkingDir}/work_areas - these are work areas used by extensions that need to store data on the disc
  • {WorkingDir}/registration_approvals - this is used by the default TWiki registration process to store registrations that are pending verification.
Warning: I guessed this setting. You are advised to confirm this setting (and any other guessed settings) and hit 'Next' to save before changing any other settings.
{WorkingDir}δ
Suffix of TWiki CGI scripts (e.g. .cgi or .pl). You may need to set this if your webserver requires an extension.
{ScriptSuffix}
