Create a VirtualHost like:

<VirtualHost *>
    DocumentRoot "c:/deki-hayes/web"
    ServerName deki-hayes
 
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/$

If you running Windows XP please take note of the following: Inside httpd.conf please make sure you have the following line in red:

<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from all
#    Satisfy all
</Directory>

I spent about an hour trying to figure out why I kept getting 403 Forbidden errors.  From messing with .htaccess files to uncommenting everything in the httpd.conf - Mike

Restart apache2 to load the new configuration. 

Installation

Before open http://deki-hayes add in file c:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts following line: 127.0.0.1 deki-hayes

To install Deki Wiki, launch a web browser and access the Web Installer by and go to the URL of your Deki.  Example:  http://deki-hayes/

If you get an error saying the following:
Error: Could not find a suitable database driver!
For MySQL, compile PHP using --with-mysql, or install the mysql.so module
-Copy C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\libmysql.dll  to c:\windows\system32
-Restart Apache2 - Mike

If you get an error saying the following:
FATAL: curl is not enabled. curl is required to connect to deki-api. Aboring... 
-Copy C:\Program Files\PHP\ssleay32.dll to c:\windows\system32
-Copy C:\Program Files\PHP\libeay32.dll to c:\windows\system32
-Restart Apache2 - Mike

Else Continue:
1) Fill in the required information

2) In the "Advanced Configuration" specify the location of the ImageMagick convert.exe and identify.exe binaries

ImageMagick convert:  C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.3.5-Q16\convert.exe 

ImageMagick identify:  C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.3.5-Q16\identify.exe 

Click "Install Deki Wiki"

You should see a confirmation screen like this:

Open up a command prompt: Start >> Run >> cmd.exe
Important: Under Windows Vista you must run cmd.exe with Administrator privileges.  Do this by opening Windows Explorer, navigate to the 'C:\Windows\System32' folder, right-click on 'cmd.exe' and select 'Run as administrator'.

Run the additional commands as specified by the installer.

Important: after you execute the last command, mindtouch.host.bat,  leave the cmd window open so the batch file (and the exe file it calls) can keep running. If you close that window, various servers Deki requires aren't running, and you can't use the wiki.

Then click the link to access your wiki!

If you get the following error:

Its because of the .NET framework. mono-1.2.4-gtksharp-2.8.3-win32-3.exe didn't work for me and I eventually had to uninstall mono and install the framework :) -Mike
