Manual talk:Short URL/wiki/Page title -- GoDaddy Shared Linux Subdomain

LocalSettings.php alternative by 76.87.166.72
I tested this alternative from 76.87.166.72:

$wgScriptPath = "wiki";		# Path to the actual files $wgArticlePath = "/$1";		# Virtual path $wgUsePathInfo = "/";		# This method might be the solution for you
 * 1) SHORT URLS:

at Navas Wireless Wiki (see Example) and it did not work -- 404 error.

See Permissions "777"
What does "See Permissions "777" on the .htaccess file." mean? 70.184.216.166 20:39, 29 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Oops -- that's a typo! Should have been "set" not "see":

Set .htaccess file Permissions to 777
 * That means to change the file permissions of .htaccess file to 777 (with GoDaddy File Manager or by FTP). Hope that helps. --John Navas 22:29, 29 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Two questions:
 * how do you set .htaccess file permissions to 777?
 * what do you mean with "install MediaWiki in the subdomain itself"

 * Reply:
 * 1. Setting File Permissions:
 * In GoDaddy Hosting Control Center -> File Manager
 * put a check on the .htaccess file
 * click the Permissions button
 * check both Web Visible and Executable
 * and then click OK
 * 2. Installing in subdomain (not directory):
 * Create Subdomain in GoDaddy Hosting Control Center
 * Then when installing MediaWiki package in GoDaddy Hosting Control Center,
 * select that Subdomain instead of a directory
 * Hope that helps,
