| 58 | | -To run the install script, you'll need to temporarily make the 'config' |
| 59 | | -subdirectory writable by the web server. The simplest way to do this on a |
| 60 | | -Unix/Linux system is to make it world-writable: |
| 61 | | - |
| 62 | | - chmod a+w config |
| 63 | | - |
| 64 | 58 | Hop into your browser and surf into the wiki directory. It'll direct you into |
| 65 | 59 | the config script. Fill out the form... remember you're probably not on an |
| 66 | 60 | encrypted connection. |
| 67 | 61 | Gaaah! :) |

| 69 | 63 | If all goes well, you should soon be told that it's set up your wiki database |
| 70 | | -and written a configuration file. There should now be a 'LocalSettings.php' in |
| 71 | | -the config directory; move it back up to the main wiki directory, and the wiki |
| 72 | | -should now be working. |
| | 64 | +and generated a configuration file. There is now a copy of "LocalSettings.php" |
| | 65 | +available to download from the installer. Download this now, there is not a |
| | 66 | +way (yet) to get it after you exit the installer. Place it in the main wiki |
| | 67 | +directory, and the wiki should now be working. |

| 75 | | - | Security hint: if you have limited access on your server and cannot | |
| 76 | | - | change ownership of files, you might want to *copy* instead of *move* | |
| 77 | | - | LocalSettings.php. | |
| 78 | | - | | |
| 79 | | - | This will make the file owned by your user account instead of by | |
| 80 | | - | the web server, which is safer in case another user's account is | |
| 81 | | - | compromised. | |
