This is an announcement of a potentially useful script. Description from the script itself:
This PHP script enables you to install DokuWiki:
* Directly from the DokuWiki homepage (without downloading to your local machine and then uploading the files to your host with FTP).
* In a safe manner (without world-writeable files/directories).
* On a server which have Safe Mode enabled. You no longer need to use any safemode hacks (as you do after doing a manual install).
You can also install DokuWiki templates with this script [...]
In addition upgrading (and uninstall) is supported by the script.
Usage: Download from
the script from my homepage, unpack, open file in an editor and set password, upload to the server and finally open the script in a browser. DokuWiki will be installed in the same folder as the script is located.
Disclaimer: I wrote the script as service for some people attending a small talk about Wikis, and it's based on my script
Pivot Setup - for the blogging engine Pivot / PivotX. The code is really ugly and not tested enough, but the script did the job for a lot of Pivot users... If people find the script useful, we could together hunt down some bugs so

Documentation: There is a help page in the script that should answer some questions. In addition there is a page on the
wiki.
