Hi All
We've been running DW for years on a local Windows Server 2008 server with IIS7 without issue. I did not set this up originally so I'm a bit new to whole DW installation/setup thing.
We now need to migrate everything to an AWS hosted Windows Server 2016 Datacentre server running IIS10. I downloaded the latest "recommended" DW version that being 2018-04-22a "Greebo", extracted it and copied the "dokuwiki" folder to the new servers C:\inetpub\wiki\ folder. I then had to install PHP as it wasn't installed by default. I then configured a new site pointing to the C:\inetpub\wiki\dokuwiki\ folder.
When I open the install.php file via a IE I was getting the following error. "The datadir ('pages') at ./data/pages is not found, isn't accessible or writable. You should check your config and permission settings.". After some research, this appeared to be a permission issue, so I granted the IUSR user Write permissions to the dokuwiki folder and tried again. That error was resolved, but now when I try to run install.php I just get the generic "The website cannot display the page" error via IE or "This page isn't working" if I try via Chrome.
Any ideas?
I am not a IIS/networking or server expert, so please go easy on me.
Regards
Doug
