So wordpress is doing it wrong (unless there is a debconf question). Ideally the app should ask the sysadmin how many instances they want and what URLs the app should be installed at and which directories and databases to use for data storage for each instance and then generate the correct configuration for the sysadmin's chosen web server. So mediawiki is probably doing it wrong since that setup only allows for one mediawiki instance installed on the system. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
