Question

I am trying to find and document the right TWiki VM to download and use for the Perforce Plug-in. Any recommendations? I have looked around and I see Debian but was wondering if that was the way to go or if there was something else i could use.

I was looking at TWikiOnDebian and it doesn't seem to look like it is the VM Version. It seems as if you can install it on an actual Debian system using apt-get, but what we want is a self-contained Virtual Machine image we can download and play in VMWare VMPlayer.

I was wondering if I could get any advice.

You might be looking for this: TWikiVMDebianStable

It contains an old TWiki version, so you have to upgrade to the latest version first (which is straight-forward).

So I have done all the steps to upgrading from 4.0.4 to 4.2.1 but I can't seem to get the last step which is just to simply go to http://twiki-vm/bin/configure. I get a 404 error everytime. I have been trying to see where I went wrong but I seem to be stuck.

You will need to look at your apache server's log to solve that 404 error. Also maybe this can help : http://www.vmware.com/appliances/directory/556 , but is not twiki's last release yet..

Check you did not removed the folder apache-logfiles in the previous twiki installation in the TWikiVMDebianStable virtual machine when updating. If you did I recommend you to use a a fresh TWikiVMDebianStable installation, remove everything from twiki folder but keeping the folder apache-logfiles, unpack the new twiki distribution and apply folder permissions like explained in SettingFileAccessRightsLinuxUnix. Test the configure script using the ip address of your virtual machine.
