The link to http://doc.tikiwiki.org/TikiFriendlyHosts is broken

I think this page is overly complex and requires a cleanup. This page should be short & sweet — we want to invite folks to install TW — not scare them away.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the installation procedure is really quite simple. Can most of this page be replaced with:

Before You Begin
Before installing TikiWiki, please read the Requirements and Setup. Proper planning can ensure a worry-free installation. If you are looking for a new webhost, we have a list of TikiFriendlyHosts.

If supported by your webhost, Fantastico can make installation quick and painless.

Step 1: Download TikiWiki

You can download the current version of TikiWiki from SourceForge. The full download is ~10MB.

Step 2: Install the Files

Move all the TikiWiki installation files to your webhost. If you have a hosted webserver, simply use FTP.

Need webhost-specific information here regarding:

• permissions
• CMOD scripts
• etc.

Plus a little note about PHP.INI requirements (with a link back to Requirements and Setup.

Step 3: Create the Database

TikiWiki requires a database. Be sure to read the Database Requirements section in Requirements and Setup. Be sure to record the following items:

• The database name
• The user name and password that has admin authority in the database.

Step 4: Run the TikiWiki Installation Script

Open a webbrowser to:http://www.yourdomain.com/tiki-install.php. Enter your database name, username, and password.

SHOULD INCLUDE A SCREEN SHOT HERE

Step 5: Configure Your Tiki

Congratulations, you're done! Log into TikiWiki for the first time with the username admin and the password admin.

I have successfully install EasyPHP and msSQL. Moving forward next is to install Tiki script, however when I point my browser to http://127.0.0.1/tiki/tiki-install.php, I have an empty page. I have try installing and re-installing but no success. I have followed the installation documentation closely but still no success. Why is this so?? Can anybody help?? I am desperate....

Answered your forum posting about the same issue :)

Is that page relevant? It seems to be a rather confused description of what was tried to do something that failed...
Should we remove the link?

Dont mess with things you dont understand!

Broken link

I removed the Knoppix link since it was broken since about 2 monthes.

Ive put it back with a message ask for a host, you can also purchase this form from my online shop here and all monies from this goes to Tiki Development.

I have this error and don't know what to do,
Warning: Smarty error: unable to read template resource: "styles/moreneat/error.tpl"
/www/tiki/Smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 999

That's probably not a full answer but you should check the permissions on this file.
More important, Wiki comments are not the best place to ask for support, prefer SourceForge's Help or forums here at tw.o.
