Question

I'm trying to install Twiki on a shared web hosting service. I can't get at httpd.conf, as that's all on the hosting provider's side. Is there a way to install it without editing the Apache settings?

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

At this time we do not have a good how-to for hosted installs. You do not need to change http.conf, on many hosting providers you can work with a .htaccess in the cgi-bin/ directory. Place the twiki/bin directory into your cgi-bin, and the twiki=pub somewhere in the htdoc tree. The other TWiki dirs can be anywhere. Configure TWiki to point to the right directories. The TWikiInstallationGuide has more.
