If you want to use it, please see the [[install:debian|Debian install page]] instead. This article describes the installation of DokuWiki from a tarball. (The Ubuntu and Debian packages follow the Debian directory conventions and that is why different steps are needed when using the Ubuntu/Debian package).

- +
-<code bash>sudo apt-get install -y dokuwiki</code> +
- +
-This will prompt you for which webserver to use, Apache 2 or lighttpd. Pick one. +
-It will also prompt you for the admin password.  Choose one and enter it. +
- +
-If you're lucky, installation is done, and you can start using DokuWiki at [[http://localhost/dokuwiki]]. +
- +
-If not, you will need to make further changes to your webserver configuration. +
-I used Apache 2, and what the package does is add a symlink +
- +
-  /etc/apache2/conf.d/dokuwiki.conf -> /etc/dokuwiki/apache.conf +
- +
-that maps the [[http://localhost/dokuwiki]]* URL space to DokuWiki and grants access only to localhost. +
-I edited the file to provide wider access and also had to edit rewrite rules elsewhere in my Apache configuration that counteracted this. +
- +
-After that, I could log in as admin and edit pages. +
- +
-Note that running [[http://localhost/dokuwiki/install.php]] will report permission errors on directories that don't actually exist. +
- +
-This is harmless - it is just ''install.php'' not being smart enough to detect that the directories in question are located elsewhere.  You don't actually need to run ''install.php'' or fix these things like the text below suggests. +
