7 Components: the Function Pages - Developers

chmod 666 */*
They also must be set for the directories themselves, with the following
command in the twiki directory:
chmod 666 data pub

Adapting the Library Path
Edit the path entry in the file twiki/bin/setlib.cfg so that it links to
your twiki/lib directory:
setLibPath = "/opt/lampp/htdocs/twiki/lib";
Now you can perform a preliminary trial run of your configuration.
To do this, in your browser, open the URL
http://localhost/twiki/bin/testenv. If you then see a text file beginning
with a shebang line, that is, with #!, your Perl settings are incorrect.
Otherwise, you will see an HTML page that starts with the heading
“Test the environment for TWiki.”
This concludes the Linux-specific instructions; you can now proceed
with the installation in Chapter 1.4.

TWiki without an Admin-Account
If you intend to run TWiki via a web host, you naturally will not
have access to the server configurations. In addition, several web
hosts do not offer SSH access, so that the files may not even be able
to be edited directly on the server. Nevertheless, you do not have to
give up working with wikis. However, one important prerequisite is
that your web host offers Perl and allows you to use your own
scripts. In principle, we proceed exactly as if we were installing a local
copy, except that we use the parameters of the web host. We assume
that you are familiar with the local installation of TWiki for
your operating system.
You first need a variety of information about your web host.
� Bin directory. In which directory are you permitted to execute
scripts? Usually, you will find a directory called bin or cgi-bin,
if you log onto your account via FTP.
