[taking this back to the list for others review]
Hi Bill,
Thanks again for helping me on this. It worked!! I don't claim to k now why :-) Going to the check page now gives :
DokuWiki version: Release 2006-03-09 Consider upgrading PHP to 4.3.10 or higher for security reasons (your version: 4.3.3) Changelog is writable Datadir is writable Attic is writable Mediadir is writable Cachedir is writable conf/users.auth.php is writable mb_string extension not available - PHP only replacements will be used Debugging support is enabled. If you don't need it you should set $conf['allowdebug'] = 0 Your current permission for this page is 8 The current page is not writable by the webserver The current page is writable by you
Does the dokuwiki install instructions need updating in some way, to cover what has happened to me?
If you still have the patience for more, read on!
I have a text file hierarchy I want to use on this wiki. I have copied it to dockuwiki/data/pages. All the folders and files in my hierachy have underscores in any long file names. The top directory shows now in the index. Clicking on this does not show the next level, which has 2 directories called Tested and To_Test. I hope I've made myself clear. Maybe it's not possible include a hierarchy under pages like this, but I think it's designed to do this.... thinking it might be a permissions thing...I tried : su - root -c "chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/dokuwiki/data/" to no avail.
Thank you,
Tom.

Let's just try once for for clarity and type it exactly like I typed it below:
su - root -c "chown -R apache:apache /var/www/html/dokuwiki"
Im glad your installation is working now :)
I cannot help with the organizing of the data directory -- but I dont think that simply dropping pages in there will automatically link them to each other.
About the set-up -- I will be happy to review the DW Site Installation FAQ and see if there is anything specific that would need clarification and if so update it so this doesnt happen to another.
Being a Linux teacher I understand the aggravation people go thru trying to learn a new system -- but I guess Ive been doing that so long I just take things for granted.
