Etch or Sid (testing/unstable)

))TikiWiki(( is available in Debian's experimental distribution. Just install it using your favourite package manager:

apt-get install tikiwiki

That's all!

If apt-get cannot find tikiwiki, you need to add the following lines in /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ experimental main non-free contrib
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ experimental main non-free contrib

and then do "apt-get update".

This package is experimental, so please help discovering and fixing problems. Bugs in the Debian package should be reported to Debian's bug tracking system:

reportbug tikiwiki

Sarge (stable)

1. Install Apache, PHP4 and MySQL
   Apache 2 : apt-get install libapache2-mod-php4 mysql-server php4-mysql
   Apache 1 : apt-get install apache php4 mysql-server
2. Test to insure each package is working properly. For example to test PHP run the hello world script. If it is not working then consider reading the debian readme, such as: /usr/share/doc/php4/README.Debian . You may need to enable the mysql library module in /etc/php4/apache2/php.ini. To enable this module you would uncomment the line extension=mysql.so in php.ini.
3. If using TikiMap
   apt-get install php4-cgi
4. Download the TikiWiki version you want
5. Unpack this archive into a Web accessible directory directory (for example /var/www)
6. Follow usual InstallTikiDoc (just run the setup.sh like "./setup.sh www-data www-data")
7. If you want GraphViz
   apt-get install graphviz.
8. If you want PDF export
   apt-get install php4-domxml
9. If you want Image Galleries
   apt-get install imagemagick php4-imagick php4-gd
10. If you want, speed up your installation by "apt-get install turck-mmcache". Note that this package is abandoned upstream and has 2 RC bugs at the time of writing. It's only in Sid.
11. Enjoy!
