SID-01177: Installation of TWiki @ Bluehost

Category:	CategoryInstallation	Server OS:		Last update:	14 years ago

Hi,

I installed TWiki at my Bluehost account by following this: http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/TWiki05x00/TWikiInstallationGuide#Installing_Manually_Without_Conf

But I failed to run: http://www.cnyuans.net/bin/configure There's an error "[an error occurred while processing this directive]" This caused that I didn't have an admin user...

Any idea on how to solve this issue?

Thanks,

Zhiguo

Discussion and Answer

http://www.cnyuans.net/ It seems that the site is running well except the 'configure'. Is there a way to create an admin user without running 'configure'?

Hello,

Check if you modified the configure section in the configuration file for apache that comes with TWiki

# Replace JohnDoe with the login name of the administrator
<FilesMatch "^configure.*">
   SetHandler cgi-script
   Order Deny,Allow
   Deny from all
   Allow from 127.0.0.1, 192.168.1.10  <<change this
   Require user JohnDoe  << and this
   Satisfy Any
</FilesMatch>

Thank you Enrique. Sorry to say that I have no luck and the issue is still there. I even commented these lines.

I guess I made it. Pick up a user in .htpasswd and replace $TWiki::cfg{AdminUserLogin} and $TWiki::cfg{Password} respectively in LocalSite.cfg. I'm leaning about TWiki and not sure if I did it correctly.
