Question

Hi, I need to set up a web that stores its data in locations other than the standard ones. I.e., If twiki is rooted at:

/web/apps/twiki/...

all the files associated with a new web called Test need to be under:

/home/aUser/twiki/Test

Is there any way to configure twiki to do this?

Many thanks,

Tony Griffiths

Answer

You can point TWiki to any location for the data directory. Configure it in $dataDir of twiki/lib/TWiki.cfg

If needed, you can have different locations for different webs. In which case you need to create a symbolic link for a web directory that resides outside of the data directory, so that it looks like the web is in the data directory. Do the same for the attachment directory.
