Can you run a wiki inside an ibay?
« on: September 07, 2008, 07:54:37 AM »
Is it possible (or does one exist) to run a small wiki inside an ibay? What kinds of web apps can you run inside an ibay and what 'gotchas' are associated?

Thanks... I am SOOOOO loving SME!

Of course it's possible, although it's not the preferred way. There are discussions about security and so on and the appreciated way is to run web applications in /opt.
The easiest way is to use a contrib to install the wiki. MediaWiki is available as a contrib.
Have a look at this page, you may find another wiki application there.
http://wiki.contribs.org/Category:Contrib

Nevertheless it's possible to run a web application in an ibay. You can simply install it there like you would do on another webserver.
