Problems installing MoinMoin

mfpuente · 2010-03-08 14:30:43

Hello all,

I need some help to install/configure MoinMoin in Archlinux.

First i installed the following package:
+ moinmoin
+ mod_wcgi
+ mod_python

I add to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf this:

LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi.so
LoadModule python_module modules/mod_python.so

WSGIScriptAlias /mywiki/ "/usr/share/moin/server/moin.cgi"
<Directory /usr/share/moin/server/>
  Order deny,allow
  Allow from all
</Directory>
<Location /mywiki>
  SetHandler python-program
  PythonPath "['/srv/http/wiki'] + sys.path"
  PythonHandler MoinMoin.request::RequestModPy.run
  PythonOption Location /mywiki
</Location>

According to the wiki, [wiki]Mod_wsgi[/wiki] is working.

Also i copied /usr/share/moin/config/wikiconfig.py to /srv/http/wiki and edited wikiconfig.py modifing this

data_dir = '/srv/http/wiki/data'
data_underlay_dir = '/usr/share/moin/underlay'

The data folder has write access to others (chmod o+w).

Also the error log of apache is:

[Mon Mar 08 11:27:52 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] mod_python (pid=6119, interpreter='localhost.localdomain', phase='PythonHandler', handler='MoinMoin.request::RequestModPy.run'): Application error

I don't know what is happeing, in the browser i get a 'error 500'

My apache knowledge is poor.

Also the instruction in the post install text of moinmoin package isn't working either

Any help is welcome, thanks

I don't if you know but i will try with the moinmoin package instead of doing a manually installation.
Install:

 $ sudo pacman -S moinmoin

I hope this help you.

I see to guides: http://moinmo.in/HowTo/ApacheWithModWSGI and http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/Q … ationGuide, and they don't use
the double quotes in the line:

 SGIScriptAlias /mywiki/ "/usr/share/moin/server/moin.cgi"

.

Thanks, but that doesn't work either. I also tried

WSGIScriptAlias /mywiki/ /usr/share/moin/server/moin.wsgi

But it doesn't work.

Excuse me for raviving an old topic.
mfpuente I got the same problem an finally chose to use wsgi
After a long struggle it finally works.
Ask me if you need any details.
