Since wikidot is self-contained and insists on being at the root of the server, my only real option is to proxy requests to wikidot through Apache. I have wikidot running on port 8080, only accessible from the server. I have Apache configured as a reverse proxy with mod_proxy and mod_proxy_html, and it's halfway working: it serves pages and rewrites the links in the sidebar. It doesn't rewrite the @import style directive, so no CSS, but I could get that working with regexp's. The bigger problem is ajax, which I've never personally dealt with so I have no idea how to fix.

When I try to login/create a page/pretty much anything, I get this error:

 The ajax request failed. Please check your internet connection or report a bug if the error repeats during your work. code:404 

Has anyone gotten wikidot running behind an apache proxy? Or, barring that, any other ajax web app? I'm not sure where to go from here.

 $ sudo aptitude install postgresql-8.3 php5-cgi php5-cli php5-pgsql lighttpd imagemagick tetex-bin tetex-extra gs-gpl php5-gd php5-tidy php-pear file git-core 

However due to slow internet speed, I'd rather download it from my Windows laptop (difference of 16 kbps compared to 1500 kbps).

I think I've found the correct files for most of them, but am unable to find:

• ImageMagick
• PHP gd extension
• PHP tidy extension
• file program (? what is this ?)
• Git to retrieve the source (? do I already have it on ubuntu ?)

I want to setup a Wikidot site from home and I have encounter a trouble.

I am using Ubuntu Server 9.10 and it is running on Virtualbox. I followed the guide at http://www.wikidot.org/installation-guide , and even though I have encountered different issues before, everything is set up right now.

However, when I enter the link at the end of 'make', I get "Internet explorer cannot display the webpage". I also tried using Firefox (which is recommended for wikidot) and I am still unable to load the page.

I have tried loading the page from another computer on the same network, using the IP of this ubuntu machine; as well as using the local host IP directly from the ubuntu machine. Both of which have similar results.

When loading the IP without specifying port 8080 (ie. using the default port 80), I do get the default page from lightpd, so I know lighttpd is working.

Would someone be able to enlighten me in the right direction if they haev encountered this? Or if anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Alex

User is able to complete and submit the account form without any difficulty, and they receive the email with the verification code.

But when the user enters the verification code (or if they click on the verification link in the email), they get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function getSiteId() on a non-object in
wikidot/php/actions/CreateAccount2Action.php on line 293

It's quite possible that I've missed something in the wiki farm configuration, or in the db setup.

Hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction in terms of where to start looking.

If you need more specific info about our setup, let me know.

Many thanks!

We're attempting to set up a wiki farm using wikidot. Quick question:

Instead of using wildcard DNS to support a subdomain for each wiki, is there any way to set up wikidot so that the wikis would be addressable as follows:

http://www.mydomain.com/wiki1
http://www.mydomain.com/wiki2
http://www.mydomain.com/wiki3
http://www.mydomain.com/wiki4

After reading through some of the posts, I'm guessing the answer is that we have to use subdomains for the wiki farm, but just wanted to verify. Thanks!

All prereqs are installed. Wikidot installation goes fine
until I run make.

Here's the transcript with the errors. I'm using GNU Make 3.81.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function _() in /usr/local/wikidot/wikidot/php/utils/WDPermissionManager.php on line 85

I'm trying to install wikidot in a Centos 5 server.

I have installed PHP 5.2, Postgresql 8.3, got the wikidot clone from github.

Whenever I try to run the 'make prepare_db' as postgres user I got the following error:

 Fatal error: Call to undefined function pg_escape_string() 

If I try to execute 'make' I get:

 Call to undefined function pg_connect() 

I have the following libraries installed:

Is there anything else I need to install to be able to execute the Makefile on wikidot?

View this: http://dev.wikidot.org/forum/t-82091/virtual-startup

I tried installing the latest revision to wikidot, but the installation has apparently changed drastically. Any advice on how to get this new version to install, or perhaps a fix for the items listed above?

Cheers!

I posted this question also a month ago on the dev forum, but unfortunately no reaction.

I have an existing wiki (schoolsplay.wikidot.com) that I want to update.
To get to work I take the train, but unfortunately I have no internet connection there (3G is way to expensive!)

I could get the vmimage working, but how can I use an existing wiki in it?
So getting the existing wiki into my machine?
And getting the updated wiki from my machine to wikidot.com?

Thanks for the help,

Chris

 You have been inactive quite a long while trying to log in and your session data have expired. Please try to click 'log in' once again. 

 GRANT ALL ON ts2.pg_ts_cfg, ts2.pg_ts_cfgmap, ts2.pg_ts_parser, ts2.pg_ts_dict TO wd; 

I get:

 ERROR: relation "ts2.pg_ts_cfg" does not exist 

I understand that the tables are in a different place. I have also manually changed ownership of those tables to wd to no avail. Am I missing something here? Why am I not able to log in? I can get the VMware dev image working just fine. Has something changed since 137?

At first blush, it appears that quite a few things have been taken care of and improved with the latest version compared to the version I'm running on my production machine at work (went live back in late March / early April).

Thanks to all of the developers for the hard work! It's very cool that Wikidot Version 1 is still being improved while Version 2 is in full development mode.

-Ed

now I've this strange problems:

- DB_UserKarmaPeerBase.php not found at all (and on the server it doesn't exist!)
- some strange behavior with image rendering with FF3 on OSX. (but it's a secondary problem)
- no third-level domain creating on the the system (nor databases, folders and so on).

how can I have a working wikifarm like wikidot.com if wikidot itself doesn't create third levels? there is something else to do i've missed?
why my wikidot permit users to set-up their own wikis and then doesn't create it?

thanks all of you for the help and sorry for my bad english…. :-(
