The real problem with using MySQL was getting an initial db set up. Without a db of the right format and with the right set of initial data in it, (IIRC) the forum software would crash... I think, instead of trying to figure out how to set this up, it'll be easier to take a full dump of the listfilt database on the Demonology sandbox test forum, and include that as a dump file to be imported for each user setting up the software as part of the installation process. I think the instructions here were the farthest I got to documenting the process of setting up euweb : http://oe.cowgar.com/forum/111566.wc It's been so long that I'd have to redo the entire process from scratch to be able to properly document it again. Installing euwiki is a completely different (and entirely separate) matter. It doesn't use any sort of database though, and the "EuWikiDb" that it does require is included and already set up in svn, so in this regard it might be somewhat simpler.
