Some Unix Sample Installation Scenario

This is roughly the scenario I set up for the SopraWiki at the University of Ulm - Faculty of Computer Science.

/!\ You should be familiar with the installation procedures of MoinMoin on UNIX systems running Apache. See: HelpOnInstalling/ApacheOnUnix.

This description will be completed soon.

1. At the beginning

Installation type

UNIX system (SuSE Linux)

Server type

Apache (via CGI interface)

Server specific

No "suexec" available (security issues)
CGI is executed with id = wwwrun/nogroup

Wiki admin privileges

Normal users (all non-root)

Available system resources

One directory (for all the MoinMoin stuff)

2. Considerations and basic setup

2.1. Users and groups

user: alice (Admin for Moin and Data)

user: bob (Admin for Moin and Data)

user: cyndi (Admin for Moin)

user: dilbert (Admin for Data)

user: wwwrun (CGI user => Admin for Data)

group: wikiadm (Admins for Moin)

group: wikidata (Admins for Data)

=== Apache server control

Include in http.conf (/base-install-path/install-dir/httpd/)

2.2. Directory structure

/base-install-path/
 `-- install-dir
     |-- httpd
     |-- moinmoin
     `-- wiki
         |-- cgi-bin
         |-- config
         |-- data
         `-- htdocs

restrictive permissions

basic install of MoinMoin (setup.py)

into moinmoin

3. Getting ready to go

copyiing

customize

site-config

4. Some tweaks
