Topic: Is there a Wiki Contrib for SME 8?

Lets try and deal with creating a db to start with.

I take it that you have phpmyadmin installed and that it is working? can you advise what version you installed?

To create the db can you log into your server via ssh (I use Putty)

Issue the following commands changing the values to suit you needs.
# mysqladmin create (database name)
# mysql mysql
mysql> grant all on (database name).* to (user)@localhost identified by '(password)';
mysql> flush privileges;
mysql> \q

Once we have the DB created we will work on the other stuff.

I did not worry about the errors you got though If you are expecting to have multiple users editing document we could look at enabling InnoDB.

Tony, I tried again but 1st let me mention I installed phpMyAdmin 3.5.4 as per the contribs, there was a warning about making sure you had the latest 8 version and I am up to date so went ahead.

I checked again and the 7 version is removed.

Then I followed your instructions but did instead say yes and installed the MySQL database during the SME_Site_Maker install to a different named install.

It states it is working but is subject to the Warnings mentioned earlier including

Warning: SQLite is compiled without the FTS3 module, search features will be unavailable on this backend.

It seems I would suggest a change to include MySQL install during the SME_Site_Maker install

I may also try to correct the 1st installation as per your database suggestion so I could have a test install and the one to actually try to save documentation in.

Thanks

That version of phpmyadmin is the same version that I have installed.

The SQLite error is nothing as you are not using it.

So you now have a working Wiki?

Yes you have two options when it comes to creating the DB create it yourself or do it when running smesm.

You can install as many copies of the wiki as you like just create a new directory and DB using smesm and away you go.
