Standalone Moin''Moin Deployment

Basic setup of the filesystem

sudo su - moin
wget http://static.moinmo.in/files/moin-1.7.1.tar.gz
wget http://sheep.art.pl/devel/gugiel/archive/tip.zip
unzip tip.zip
tar zxvf moin-1.7.1.tar.gz
ln -s moin-1.7.1/ src
cp -r src/wiki/config .
ln -s src/MoinMoin/ .
ln -s src/wiki/underlay/ .
cp -r src/wiki/htdocs/ .
cp -r src/wiki/data .
ln -s data/plugin/macro/ .
cp src/wikiserverconfig.py .
cp src/wiki/server/moin .
mv Gugiel-Theme-b39617bc5d74 htdocs/gugiel
mv htdocs/gugiel/gugiel.py data/plugin/theme/

Lighttpd via runit - this is how we run moin www service

$HTTP["host"] == "wiki.tldp.org" {

server.error-handler-404   = "/"

        url.rewrite-once = (
"^/htdocs/(.*)$" => "/htdocs/$1",
"^/moin_static182/(.*)$" => "/htdocs/$1",
"^/robots.txt" => "/robots.txt",
"^/statz" => "/statz",
"^/favicon.ico" => "/favicon.ico",
"^/(.*)" => "/run/$1"
)

fastcgi.server = (  "/run" =>
  (( "docroot"   => "/",
     "min-procs" => 4,
     "max-procs" => 32,
     # allocate successive port numbers for each process, starting with "port"
     "bin-path"  => "/home/moin/moin.fcg",
     "host"      => "127.0.0.1",
     "port"      => 2211,
     "check-local" => "disable",
     "broken-scriptfilename" => "enable",
  ))
)

}

runit - this is how to restart moin service

reggae:~# sv restart lighttpd
ok: run: lighttpd: (pid 15863) 0s

in a bad situation moin could hang, so list the processes manually ps auxwwww and kill -9 a proper process.

how to upgrade moin?

this example shows how i upgraded moin 1.7.1 to moin 1.7.2

moin@reggae:~$ wget http://static.moinmo.in/files/moin-1.7.2.tar.gz
moin@reggae:~$ tar zxf moin-1.7.2.tar.gz
moin@reggae:~$ rm src
moin@reggae:~$ ln -s moin-1.7.2/ src
moin@reggae:~$ vim config/wikiconfig.py

and in editor replace url_prefix_static = "/moin_static171" with url_prefix_static = "/moin_static172", and logo_string = u<img src="/moin_static172/ldp/tldp.png" alt="[LDP]"> with the same kind of change of version, do the same in /etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/10-fastcgi.confthen restart lighttpd.
