Hello. I reeeeally want to get Instiki running at my day job, but they are Microsoft-heads. While I can probably sell them on trying Rails, they are definitely going to want the database to sit in our SQL Server instance with our other databases. I can''t get instiki to create the tables in sql server though (I''ve added ADO.rb, and gotten a connection). When I run the

Hi, Has anyone managed to get lighttpd to proxy requests through to an instiki running on another port? >From my lighttpd configuration: $HTTP["host"] == "wiki.railsapphosting.com" { proxy.balance = "hash" proxy.server = ( "" => ( ("host" => "206.222.22.155", "port" => 50074) )) } Instiki is bound to

Hi all, Following the recent release of Instiki-AR beta, I haven''t had a lot of bug reports or other feedback. This could mean one of the two things. Either nobody is using it, or some people are, and have no problems at all. One thing for sure is that it''s certainly getting downloaded (20 times a day, as it were)! I''d like to know which way is it. So, if you are

Just wondering if anyone can tell me the differences between i2 and instiki-ar? Is one preferred over the other? Also, instiki-ar has support for file uploads but it doesn''t look like i2 does. Is there any plan to add that support? Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks. Steven Smith

Dear all, If you thought Instiki was a dead project, you were right. Since I''ve got a day job that doesn''t suck (Official Ruby Zealot of ThoughtWorks Canada), my motivation to do open source greatly sufferred :) But... but... but! Here is Instiki 0.11.0, and in this version Instiki is (finally!) moving to ActiveRecord backend and (finally!) has the File Upload feature.

Basically, we needed to authenticate against the cookie written by Ruby. It turns out that you can write a cookie for the entire TLD of *.example.com from Instiki (Rails). So, I changed the cookie writing code in the wiki_controller to the following. # app/controllers/wiki_controller.rb cookies[''ldap_username_2006''] = {:value =>emailaddress, :expires

hello, is the instiki project still being developed? it seems the web site is down for a couple of weeks now, and almost no activity is going on on the developer mailing list. on a related note, are you aware of other actively developed rails-based wikis? many thanks in advance.

I am trying to do a tutorial improvement on the wiki but I am having some problems with the auto formatting. Using httdp.conf produces http://httpd.conf when filtered. Using *.so produces .so and bold text there after. Is there any shorthand for the user for making text appear as it should without the linking and re-writes? Or does the admin have to change the filters in Instiki? Tesla

Am I missing something or is the Rails powered Instiki lacking the ability to actually compare the differences between changes in a page? ie: I want to see what changed between the current revision and the prior one.

I installed instiki and it works great. The default setting is to use ''textile'' markup engine and I love it. I love that if I just put google.com then it is convereted into a link. I have another app where I use Redcloth. Here in order to a link I need to do this. "Google.com":http://google.com It''s my understanding that instiki is using Redcloth as

Hello, I am currently working on implementing some authentification code onto Instiki (0.11.0). I am encountering a problem in this situation : When I try to access say http:/localhost:2500/orz/show/Test , where orz is an instiki web name, I am redirected to my signin form screen (which is what I want) but then upon signing in I get the following message: No url can be generated for the hash

I would like to have a wiki that uses Markdown as the markup language (or something very close), I've currently used PmWiki and I really like it but there are some problems with using Markdown so I'm interested to see if there is an alternative that works better for me. I've looked at wiki matrix and searched for and found the following list bitweaver, DekiWiki, DokuWiki, Friki,

Hi all, I''d like to develop an application with an in-memory db. I''d like to use the same model of Instiki. Instiki uses Madeleine to work. I''d like to know what are the basic step I must do to build a model class to make it "storable" in Madeleine. I am watching at the Instiki source but ruby is still new to me...and I have find little comments on

One problem I sort of always had with the ActiveRecord''s tight coupling to the SQL backend is how slow it makes the unit tests. OK, there are some ways to make it faster at a price of extra complexity (reusing the fixtures, doing a rollback in the end of the test, etc), but still - it is much slower than what I would like a unit test to be. Today I had a very simple idea (why, oh why

Hi all, I am looking for some time tracking software for our small company. Does anyone knows if such project on rails exists? I need simple functionality such as recording spent time for employees and managing projects or tasks. Ideally, it would be possible to integrate it into Instiki and to some existing database. There are some other solutions, but it seems to me that RoR would be ideal

Hello Redclothians, In Redcloth, is there syntax to add something to a wiki block that is not parsed by redcloth? for example: $permission$ h2. title * blah * blah where $permission$ is ignored by redcloth, so it doesnt affect the rendering of wiki syntax -> html, but appears when you edit a page (perk for me would to also have it not appear in the rendered html). Why would anyone want

Hello, Is there a patch laying around somewhere to convert Textile to LaTeX? (Instiki did/does this?) Or, better yet, is RedCloth 3.1 still in the pipeline?
