[Instiki] (no subject)

[Rich Morin]

OK, I finally got brave and downloaded a copy of Instiki.
Specifically, instiki-ar-beta1.zip

The README says:

  Step 1. Download
  Step 2. Run "instiki"
  Step 3. Chuckle... "There's no step three!" (TM)

This is not precisely true.  It _is_ true that (on my OSX box)
the zipfile unpacked itself automagically.  I then went into
the instiki-ar directory and ran instiki, as follows:

> % cd ~/De*/instiki-ar
> % instiki
> ./script/../config/environment.rb:68:in `initialize':
>   No such file or directory -
>   /Local/_Private/Homes/rdm/Desktop/instiki-ar/config/database.yml
>(Errno::ENOENT)
>         from ./script/../config/environment.rb:68:in `open'
>         from ./script/../config/environment.rb:68
>         from ./script/server:42:in `require'
>         from ./script/server:42
>         from instiki:6:in `load'
>         from instiki:6
> % ls config
> database.default.yml    environments
> environment.rb          routes.rb

Uhuh.  OK, I'm still feeling brave.

> % cp config/database.default.yml config/database.yml
> % instiki
> => Instiki started on http://0.0.0.0:2500

Looks promising, but when I tried the URL (http://localhost:2500),
I got this nastygram:

> No such file to load -- sqlite3
> /app/models/wiki.rb:82:in `setup?'
> /app/controllers/wiki_controller.rb:17:in `index'
> ./script/server:49

> instiki:6

>"Cache-Control"=>"no-cache"}

Gosh, OSX has sqlite3...

> % which sqlite3
> /usr/bin/sqlite3

So, it looks like there SHOULD be a step 3.  Anyone want to help
this ruby/rails/instiki nuby get started?
