Hi Sadid 2010/4/30 sadid sahami <[email protected]>
Hello! while I've been frustrated form installing mediawiki... I found XWIKI....The installation was easy and straight-forward then I encountered with an excellent tool for my job: I am not a administrating and I don't want Online wiki so much (at least for 1-2 year)... currently I just need a wiki for my personal use: 1) is XWIKI a good choice for someone like me?
Yep XWiki is a very good wiki but also a platform to develop on new applications (applications here http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/) using scripting languages (groovy, velocity) more info here<http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SecondGenerationWiki> , of course the raison d'etre of XWiki or wikis in general is collaborative editing/working 2) I need LaTeX support is it available?
LaTex is present in idea/proposal page http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Idea/ I don't know if LaTeX support is present in XWiki.
3) I'm a newbie ( I just know a little HTML...) is XWIKI a good alternative for my personal DMS?
I think YES :)
4) I've installed my XWIKI on Fedora 11 in /home/user/.XWiki folder is it possible to reinstall it?
I don't know it yet.
5) I can't access my xwiki via menu's shortcut I've to cd .XWiki and "sh start....sh" It works but I want a total solution
You can create a new menu item right-clicking on menu (Applications) -> Edit menus -> New Item -> now you should give a name, indicate the script you should exec, optionally adding a comment if you like. Here there's a screenshot (Italian) -> http://www.imagebanana.com/img/kdgkogxl/Schermata3.png
6) where do my pages store?
I don't know it yet.
