Configuration Setting: basedir
Usually DokuWiki can detect the directory that it is installed in on its own. But sometimes this does not work for various reasons. If DokuWiki does not seem to function properly and cannot find things such as images for its web pages, you can set the directory here.
The path you should set here, is the path from the server root to your DokuWiki installation. E.g. if your wiki is available at http://www.yourserver.com/dokuwiki/ you should set basedir to /dokuwiki/. Be sure to have a leading and a trailing slash!
- Type: String
- Default:
Danger: Changing this option could make your wiki and the configuration menu inaccessible.
If your DokuWiki installation is located directly inside the server root or a subdomain like http://www.subdomain.yourserver.com you should set the basedir to a single slash.
