## Please edit system and help pages ONLY in the master wiki! ## For more information, please see MoinMoin:MoinDev/Translation. ##master-page:Unknown-Page ##master-date:Unknown-Date #acl -All:write Default #format wiki #language en MoinMoin ''DesktopEdition'' is the easiest way to run moin, without much installation and without separate server software (this is why its built-in server is also called the ''standalone server''). It is intended as a local personal information manager. == Installation == * if you don't already have Python installed (Linux systems often have it by default, Mac OS X also, Windows usually needs manual installation), get it from http://python.org/ * download the moin distribution archive from MoinMoin:MoinMoinDownload * unpack it (will give some moin-1.x.x directory) If you prefer to work with a repository checkout instead of a release archive, the procedure is like above, but you additionally have to unpack the underlay pages: * `cd moin-1.x.x/wiki` * `tar xf underlay.tar` == Running == * `cd moin-1.x.x` * `./wikiserver.py` (or click on `wikiserver.py`) * now a fresh moin wiki will run on http://localhost:8080/ :) * you can terminate the wiki server either by using Ctrl-C or closing the window == Wiki Server Configuration == If you need to use a configuration different from the standard configuration you can edit the `wikiserverconfig.py` in the toplevel directory, see the comments there. (!) By default, moin only listens on the localhost interface. Before opening it to a wider audience, please check if the security settings of moin are what you want. Especially the `DesktopEdition` and `acl_rights_*` settings might need changes if you don't use it for personal use and on localhost only. == Wiki Server Logging Configuration == See `wikiserverlogging.conf`. (!) You maybe usually don't want to change that, but you ''can'' - e.g. if you like to have more log output for debugging. == Wiki Configuration == See the `wikiconfig.py` in the toplevel directory. HelpOnConfiguration lists the configuration options. You maybe also want to look at the sample config in the `wiki/config/` directory. See also: HelpOnInstalling/StandaloneServer
