Post Reply? I’m having the darndest time getting MoinMoin to work from this type of url, with cruft-free urls: http://wiki.example.com/ I can make it work just fine, with cruft-free urls, here: http://wiki.example.com/w/ I can’t seem to find a way to get apache and the wikiconfig.py to work together properly to make this happen. Has anyone gotten this to work, without needing the subdirectory? My settings: .htaccess in /home/user/wiki.example.com directory: ———————————————— <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^_static(.*)$ htdocs$1 RewriteRule ^w/(.*)$ cgi-bin/moin.fcg/$1 [L] </IfModule> —————————————- moin.fcg in /home/user/wiki.example.com/cgi-bin/ ————————————— class Config(FastCgiConfig): properties = {’script_name’: ‘/w’} ————————————— I tried a large amount of combinations just trying to remove the ‘w’ as a subdirectory, and just use root. I keep getting either a HTTP 500 error, or the root url “wiki.example.com” show me an apache directory of the files located in /home/user/wiki.example.com Please help, I’m so stumped!
