[Instiki] Problems installing instiki 0.11.0

[Punit Rathore]

John,
   Finally, success. Thanks for your help, including installation of swig.
However, one crutial step that was still missing was the setting the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH in instiki.sh. You see the problem was that my default
LD_LIBRARY_PATH did not have /usr/lib;/usr/local/lib in it. Now you might
say that its pretty basic to check that if its true, but I beg to differ. My
suggestion is that the next release README shuld include the instructions to
check for the LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting.

mm.  Doing an install on a Mac OS X 10.4.6 system with the following
prequisites installled works just fine:
* ruby 1.8.4
* the sqlite3-ruby gem
* the sqlite3 libraries
* swig (http://www.swig.org/)  swig is required for sqlite3 *nix and
Mac OS X systems,
   otherwise the sqlite3-ruby gem reverts to a broken pure ruby
implementation. :-P

My sequence for setup with the above prerequisites installed:
0) tar xzf instiki-0.11.0.tgz
1) cd instiki-0.11.0
2) rake environment RAILS_ENV=production db_schema_import
3) For Mac OS X/*nix: script/server -e production -p 2500
    For Windows: instiki.cmd

note that doing "rake ... db_schema_import" effectively does the same
thing as "rake ... migrate", except that it does it in one step from
schema.rb, and it creates/clears the sqlite3 db file as needed.

At that point, I can connect to http://localhost:2500/ and I get the
initial wiki page just fine.

If you're still having trouble, please post what platform you're on
(w.g. Win2k, etc.) and the precise steps you follow.  I'll see if I
can repro on a similar system.
