Add this to your conifg/config.ini:

HOME_PAGE = WhateverYouWantToCallYourHomePage

Do you get an error? A blank page? Or nothing at all?

I tried this. I set the following line right after the wiki name:

WIKI_NAME = Support QA Wiki
HOME_PAGE = Support_QA_Wiki

When I then tried to access the wiki, it went through the process of
creating a virgin wiki, and printed the following error at the bottom of the
page:

Fatal Error:
lib\FileFinder.php:191: Error: pgsrc/Support_QA_Wiki: file not found 

I then tried to reload, and it restarted trying to create the virgin wiki
again. I have created a new file under pgsrc called Support_QA_Wiki with the
desired contents and that seemed to work.

However, I would like my home page name to have spaces:

HOME_PAGE = Support QA Wiki

I tried setting the variable to this value and it said is was looking for a
file called Support+QA+Wiki. I provided this file but still kept getting the
create virgin wiki page. Any ideas on this?

I get a blank page. The source just had an empty page:
<html><body></body></html>

I don't get it everything single I click on a link. I would say I get a
blank page about 30% of the time.

That's because the page didn't exist. You should create the page prior to
changing HOME_PAGE.

The value for HOME_PAGE needs to be quoted if it contains spaces:

HOME_PAGE = "Support QA Wiki"

I don't know on that one. I can't replicate it. Anyone else?

I should have thought about creating the page with the spaces beforehand.
Thanks for that.

As for the Firefox issue, I hope someone else can help. I'll just have to
use IE in the meantime.

I'm disinclined to think that it's a Firefox issue, actually. I use Firefox,
(as do most of the other developers) and I'm not seeing that problem myself.

You're using IIS, right? It could be an issue with your web server. Also, a
blank page is consistent with PHP hitting its per process memory limit. Maybe
you have that set too low in your php.ini. If that's happening, you'd see some
errors in your logs.

What would be a good value for the memory. It was at a default value of 8MB.
I tried increasing to 32MB and got the same problem.

As well, it is was really a PHP config issue, wouldn't I see it inside of IE
as well?

Then I'd say it's not a memory problem. 8MB should be sufficient.
Did you check the logs for error messages?

Not necessarily. There are places in PhpWiki where different code runs when
the requesting browser is IE than when it's Firefox.

Are you referring to logs in phpwiki or on the PHP side on the server. I've
never had to look at error logs for PHP application.

If it's on the PHP side, would you be able to point me in the right
direction to find this on Windows?

php errors within phpwiki are always displayed at the end of the page.
(warnings and errors, notices not)
There's no error log file within phpwiki, just the normal request log.
