MoinMoin farming mode with apache2 and mod_wsgi
Why? Because MoinMoin is a widely used wiki, dyne.org uses MoinMoin and I thought to keep a page with a guide to install the latest moinmoin version at the time I'm writing 2024-04-20
Basic idea
The basic idea is that in farming mode each wiki has it's own instance. For its own instance we mean data, configuration files, stylesheets and plugins Search on the online documentation of moinmoin I found http://moinmo.in/FarmQuestions
/home/wiki/
bin/
moin.wsgi
config/
farmconfig.py # contain the basic configurations common to all wikis
mywiki.py # site1
rcyb.py # site2
logging/
logfile.conf
plugin/ # systemwide plugins
underlay/ # read-only doc
pages/ #<--- need to be rwx for owner and group www-data
wikis/
mywiki/
data/ #<--- need to be rwx for owner and group www-data and so for
plugin -> ../../../plugin
rcyb/
data/All the static content will be in the DocRoot of the webserver (e.g. /var/www/$(wikiname|hostname)/htdocs
At the end each host in the farm could have something like http://wherewerehome.nn/wiki/$(wikiname|hostname)/ with a rewrite rule (I'm might be totally wrong and a rewrite rule might not be usefull but I'm thinking in case of migration from server to server) in case of dedicated hostname, e.g. http://groupxy.com/wiki that point to http://wherewerehome.nn/wiki/$groupxy/
The apache2 setup
First check that libapache2-mod_wsgi or similar is installed, check that is loaded by apache ( a2enmod wsgi && apachectl restart )
This is my sample virtual host for the sum off all the wikis:
