UninstallingPmWiki

Most of the files created and/or used by PmWiki can be deleted by the account holder outright. However, a certain system file, created when the wiki.d directory is created, cannot be removed this way. To remove wiki.d, create a PHP file containing the following line:

<?php system ('/bin/rm -rf wiki.d') ?>

Place the file in your PmWiki directory and call it up in your browser. No output will be produced, but the wiki.d directory and all of the pages within it will be gone. *Forever*. So, make sure you want to do this before you try.

Once this has been completed, the account holder should be able to delete the PmWiki directory with no further complaints from the server.
Warning: strftime() [function.strftime]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/Anchorage' for 'AKDT/-8.0/DST' instead in /Users/dan/Sites/ofolio/pmwiki/pmwiki.php on line 647
