Installing PukiWiki on Void Linux

PukiWiki is a powerful Wiki system that allows users to easily create and maintain a collaborative website. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing PukiWiki on Void Linux.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, you must have the following:

  • A remote server running Void Linux
  • Administrative access to the server
  • A basic understanding of the command line

Step 1: Install Required Packages

PukiWiki requires the following packages to be installed on your server:

  • PHP
  • PHP-CLI
  • PHP-XML
  • HTTPD (web server)

To install these packages, run the following command in your terminal:

sudo xbps-install php php-cli php-xml httpd

Step 2: Download PukiWiki

The next step is to download PukiWiki from the official website. You can download the latest version of PukiWiki by running the following command in your terminal:

wget https://ja.osdn.net/dl/pukiwiki/pukiwiki-1.5.2_utf8.zip

Once the download is complete, extract the archive by running the following command:

unzip pukiwiki-1.5.2_utf8.zip

Step 3: Configure HTTPD

To configure HTTPD to serve PukiWiki, you need to modify your configuration file. For Void Linux, the configuration file is located at /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.

Open the configuration file using your favorite text editor:

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Add the following lines to the bottom of the file:

Alias /pukiwiki /path/to/pukiwiki/
<Directory "/path/to/pukiwiki">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Require all granted
</Directory>

Replace /path/to/pukiwiki with the full path to the PukiWiki directory you extracted in Step 2.

Save and close the file.

Step 4: Set Permissions

Set the correct permissions on the PukiWiki directory:

sudo chown -R http:http /path/to/pukiwiki

Step 5: Install PukiWiki

Navigate to the PukiWiki directory and run the installation script:

cd /path/to/pukiwiki
sudo php ./install.php

Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation process.

Step 6: Access PukiWiki

After the installation is complete, you can access PukiWiki by navigating to http://your.server.IP/pukiwiki/ in your web browser.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed PukiWiki on Void Linux.
