Download & Install TWiki-VM-6.0.2-1 - OVF Virtual Machine (VMware, Oracle VM...)

Easy installation on Windows! ...and other platforms VMware, VirtualBox and Oracle VM supports.

TIP First time visiting? Start learning about TWiki by browsing the TWiki front page at http://TWiki.org/! You can also try TWiki now by registering and editing Sandbox pages.

Overview

The TWiki Virtual Machine (TWiki-VM) enables you to quickly and easily install a pre-configured TWiki 6.0 'software appliance' on Windows, Mac OS-X or any other x86 based platform that supports Open Virtualization Format (OVF), such as VMware ESX, VMware Workstation, VMware Player, VMware Fusion, VirtualBox, Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, IBM POWER server AIX, IBM SmartCloud, OpenNode Cloud Platform, Oracle VM, rPath and SUSE Studio. This CentOS 6.5 based TWiki-VM generally performs better than a native TWiki installation on Windows. Although running TWiki on Linux on top of Windows may seem complicated, it's actually much simpler than installing TWikiOnWindows - no TWiki or Linux knowledge is needed to get a working TWiki installation!

Download and Installation

Download & Install TWiki-VM-6.0.2-1 (latest)

This uses VMware as an example. Other virtualization software are similar to use.

  • If needed, get a virtualization environment such as VMware or VirtualBox:
  • Download Buy and download the TWiki-VM:
    • Purchase the latest TWiki-VM-6.0.2-1 for US15ドル.00 - this makes you feel good, and helps us cover the cost of running the TWiki.org website:
    • ALERT! Important: After purchasing the TWiki-VM at PayPal, follow the "Return to TWiki.org" link, where you can download the package
    • Copy the package to the server where VMware is installed
  • Import the TWiki-VM OVF image into VMware:
    • Select "Import" in the File menu, and select "Choose File..."
    • Browse to and select TWiki-VM-6.0.2-1.ova, continue, set the location where the image should be saved
    • Boot the TWiki-VM-6.0 image
  • Change the root password:
    • In the TWiki-VM console screen, login as root with password changeme
    • At the prompt, type passwd and enter a new (strong) password twice:
      # passwd
      Changing password for user root.
      New UNIX password:
      Retype new UNIX password:
  • Set networking:
    • The TWiki-VM is configured for DHCP. This is OK for home use and for testing. In a production environment it should be changed to a static IP address.
    • Test default network:
      • Enter:
        # ip addr
      • You should see a "lo" and a "eth0" entry
    • Network configuration for DHCP: Login as root, edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and set its content to the following:
      DEVICE=eth0
      ONBOOT=yes
      BOOTPROTO=dhcp
    • Network configuration for static IP address: Login as root, edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and set its content to the following: (tweak the IP address, net mask and gateway as needed)
      DEVICE=eth0
      ONBOOT=yes
      BOOTPROTO=none
      TYPE=Ethernet
      USERCTL=no
      IPV6INIT=no
      PEERDNS=yes
      IPADDR=10.1.10.129
      NETMASK=255.255.255.0
      GATEWAY=10.1.10.1
    • Restart the network after each configuration change: Login as root and enter this command:
      /etc/init.d/network restart 2
      • If you get this error:
        Bringing up interface eth0: Device eth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization.
        you have a MAC address mismatch. This can happen when you "copy" (vs. "move") a virtual machine the first time you start it. On copy, VMware assigns a new MAC address to the network interfaces, but may fail to update the Linux configuration files to mirror these changes, resulting in a dead eth0 network interface.
      • Fix:
        • Edit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, delete the first SUBSYSTEM setting containing NAME="eth0", and change the NAME in the second SUBSYSTEM setting from "eth1" to NAME="eth0". Example:
          SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:0c:29:56:26:13", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"
        • Edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0, remove also the UUID setting, and set the HWADDR setting to the new MAC address. Example:
          HWADDR=00:0C:29:56:26:13
        • Reboot the machine:
          reboot
    • Confirm (or find out) the IP address of the TWiki-VM: Login as root and enter the ifconfig command. In this sample output, look for the inet addr in the second line (in eth0 section) :
      eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0C:29:89:8C:47
      inet addr:192.168.1.79 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
      inet6 addr: fe80::20c:29ff:fe89:8c47/64 Scope:Link
      UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
      ...
  • Configure TWiki for proper use:
    • Ask your IT to to add a DNS entry for your TWiki server, such as twiki.example.com pointing to the IP address of the TWiki-VM.
    • Run the TWiki configuration utility: Using a web browser, go to your TWiki by IP address, appending /do/configure, such as http://192.168.1.79/do/configure
    • If you run configure for the first time:
      • Enter a secure configuration password twice, and proceed to the configuration screen
      • Save (even though you have not done any changes)
      • Return to configuration
    • In the "General path settings" section,
      • set the {DefaultUrlHost} to the TWiki domain name, such as http://twiki.example.com
      • set the {PermittedRedirectHostUrls} to the TWiki domain name and IP address, such as http://twiki.example.com, http://192.168.1.79
    • In the "Mail and Proxies" section,
      • set {SMTP}{MAILHOST} - in many environments localhost is sufficient
      • set {SMTP}{Username} and {SMTP}{Password} in case your mail server requires an authenticated user to send mail
    • Save the configuration changes
  • Run TWiki:
    • Using a web browser, enter the domain name or IP address of the TWiki-VM
    • Register yourself and other users: See Register link in the Account pulldown menu
    • Define administrators:
      • Visit Home >> Main web >> Groups (pulldown menu) >> TWikiAdminGroup
      • Login as "admin" with your configure password
      • Hit "Edit Preferences"
      • In GROUP setting, add a comma-space list of registered users who should have admin rights, such as: JimmyNeutron, BigDude
    • TIP Congratulation, you have a fully functional TWiki installation!

Discussion

Nice uptake of the new virtual machine TWiki-VM-5.1.0-1 as seen on sourceforge.net statistics:

[画像:vm-stats1s.png]

-- PeterThoeny - 2011年09月09日

Hi all, I installed the TwikiVM using VMware Player in a Windows 7 PC. It perfectly works, but now I would like to backup my twiki. I read that it is possible to access the twikiVM through Internet Explorer or through Windows Explorer giving file://twiki-vm, but it doesn't work at all. I went to the VM installation to check the samba configuration, and I saw that samba is not running, and that /etc/samba/smb.conf doesn't even exits. Is there anything wrong with the installation I did? How can I access and backup my files? Thanks

-- MassimilianoChiorboli - 2011年10月24日

Massimiliano, please do not cross-post the same question on multiple locations. Let's handle this at Support.SID-01303

-- PeterThoeny - 2011年10月24日

Btw, I didn't have still any answer in the support, so I'm still stuck with this problem. Many thanks.

-- MassimilianoChiorboli - 2011年10月25日

I am getting the following error when I try to find new extensions from the configure page within this VM installation:

Error accessing TWiki.org: Incomplete headers This is most likely because the LWP CPAN module isn't installed.

I found an entry on the TurnKey Linux forums about this and it recommended removing the "T" parameter from the first line of the configure file. I did that, restarted the whole VM, and I am still getting the same error. Is there anything else that I could try?

Thanks!

-- MattLamoureux - 2011年11月11日

In regards to issue of not finding new extensions from the configure page: libwww-perl needs to be installed, see Support.SID-01331.

-- PeterThoeny - 2011年11月15日

New version TWiki-VM-5.1.0-2 released, it can be downloaded from DownloadTWiki. It fixes the issue of not finding new extensions from the configure page. It also has the latest CentOS 5.7, upgraded from 5.6.

-- PeterThoeny - 2011年11月16日

New version TWiki-VM-5.1.1-1 released, it can be downloaded from DownloadTWiki. It incorporates the latest TWiki-5.1.1 release.

-- PeterThoeny - 2012年01月15日

TWiki-VM-5.1.1-1 crashes VMware Server 2.0.2 during import. Deleting the two serial0 lines in the .vmx file solved the problem. Googling reveals VMware Server does not support "thinprint".

-- GeoffJohnston - 2012年04月04日

Thanks Geoff for sharing this. Who uses serial interface anyway? Needs to be removed in the next release.

-- PeterThoeny - 2012年04月04日

File::Temp needs to be updated in the latest VM for statistics to work.

-- PeterThoeny - 2012年04月12日

How do I install twiki on window 7? Please give me the step to step breatdown of how to do that. Thanks.

-- KehindeAdeoya - 2012年04月26日

Download VMware from http://www.vmware.com/products/ and follow above instructions.

-- PeterThoeny - 2012年04月26日

where will i locate the twiki vm image?

-- KehindeAdeoya - 2012年04月27日

I search the Twiki 5-1-1VM folder but o not see any image how do I go about this? this is my second ay on trying to use twiki. Thanks. God bless you in Jesus name.

-- KehindeAdeoya - 2012年04月27日

The content of the unzipped file you downloaded is the VMware image. The VMware image consists of the TWiki-VM-5.1.vm* files.

-- PeterThoeny - 2012年04月27日

Thanks. Highly grateful! After this, am I to unzip the folder into the installed folder of VMWARE SERVER? To narrow down a bit to my installation progress, after installing Vmware SERVER, I clicked the icon the desktop and it opened up on the browser asking me to configure a new virtual machine, am i really on the right step? Please, kindly bear with me, communicate with me in a layman's language . If you have a pictorial tutorial, I think that will better aid my understanding. Thanks.

-- KehindeAdeoya - 2012年04月29日

It seems I'm getting along, how do I boot the Twiki image? Kindly bear with my childish question. Thanks

-- KehindeAdeoya - 2012年04月29日

I cannot find the directory "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0". It goes up to "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/" and it does not have the "ifcfg-eth0". Im testing at home using DHCP

-- ClydeMenzi - 2012年10月14日

I restarted it and tried again and I'm getting permission denied

-- ClydeMenzi - 2012年10月14日

Please ask support questions in the Support web.

-- PeterThoeny - 2012年10月15日

New version TWiki-VM-5.1.2-1 released, it can be downloaded from DownloadTWiki. It incorporates the latest TWiki-5.1.2 release.

  • CentOS is now update to 5.8.
  • The VM contains an updated File::Temp Perl module so that statistics works as expected.

-- PeterThoeny - 2012年10月23日

-- Peter Thoeny - 2013年02月18日

I tried to login using id: root pw: changeme But it doesn't work, please help, I even tried 'passwd'

-- Rahul Sharma - 2013年05月28日

You need to login as root on the shell.

If you need to run the TWiki-VM on ESXi, you'll need to convert the VM before you can start it up. Use the VMware vCenter Converter (I used the standalone product, which is a free download (you'll need to register with vmware.com first, which is also free)). Easy process. Download and extract the TWiki-VM file to the server where you've installed the Converter. Launch the Converter application, and Click "Convert Machine." When prompted to select a source type, choose VMware Workstation or other VMware virtual machine. You'll need credentials on the ESXi host that will run the TWiki-VM. Enter those, accept the defaults (unless you need to change them per your environment), and the converter will import the VM into a format that ESXi can understand. Now you can Power On the VM without errors.

Hi People. I have installed Twiki VM and all works fine, but my question is:

The VM come with 6 GB local disk, I have expanded the local disk from 6 GB to 15 GB thru the Gparted tool, and all see good at the process end. But when I restart the Twiki vm, I have run the df -h and I still see the same used space.

/ = size 3.8 - used 1.3G - free 2.4 G /boot= size 99M - 30M - free 57M

Any link that can help me?

I'm newbie about the linux world. Thank in advanced! (I hope I explained well)

I use Twiki like Knowledge base in my department. smile

I just downloaded VM-6 and the VMWare Player today (4.0.6 build-1035888)

I get the error -

The configuration file "C:\TWiki-VM\TWiki-VM-6.0\TWiki-6.0.vmx" was created by a VMware product that is incompatible with this version of VMware Player and cannot be used. Cannot open the configuration file C:\TWiki-VM\TWiki-VM-6.0\TWiki-6.0.vmx.

Am i doing something wrong?

I'm running the latest version of the TWiki-VM on VMware Workstation 11.0.0 (TWiki-VM-6.0.1-1 2014年10月05日 TWiki-6.0.1, CentOS 6.5 ). Changing either network configuration file per the directions doesn't seem to work (using dhcp because I have to for now), and the network restart fails without an error. The ifconfig command shows an ipv6 address, but no ipv4 address. I'm unable to get an ipv4 address and the weird thing is that ipv6 disabled in /etc/sysconfig/network

Also, I think I was able to install vmware tools successfully, but they don't seem to be working. The screen resolution is at it's smallest, and I can't change it. I tried to follow the directions to change it here: http://serverquestions.com/questions/f1yx/how-to-change-resolution-of-centos-6-5-resolution-on-virtualbox-host-win7 but the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file wasn't there to begin with.

Shane: Not sure. Your VirtualBox host apparently operates in an IPv6 environment? Best to open a Support question to track this.

I tried the latest version of the TWiki-VM on VMware. Its running successfully and comfortably. I want to know about process and how easy it would be to upgrade to the future TWiki-VM(whenever released)?

-- Saurabh Maheshwari - 2015年08月09日

Saurabh: If you have not done any changes to the core engine or skins you can simply create a backup using the BackupRestorePlugin, then restore that to a new VM.

-- Peter Thoeny - 2015年08月09日

In manually configuring eth0 you also have to update the HWADDR setting so that it matches the MAC address assigned to the VM.

Paypal link is not working

-- John Jakubowski - 2020年09月23日

I need to investigate. I'll contact you separately to get you covered.

-- Peter Thoeny - 2020年09月24日

Interesting. I'm not very familiar with virtual machines, and I just came across this page today -- I'm wondering if there is a (somewhat similar) virtual machine that could easily be installed on a (ideally free) web hosting service even if the web hosting service doesn't support TWiki?

(Aside: I'd expect that most web hosting services run Linux.)
