Hello,

I took over an Amazon EC2. I now want to install a second media wiki on it using putty. I cannot find any tutorial on that. Can you please help me out?

Cheers, Wez

If you are running a BitNami EC2 image, you can download and install a module from http://bitnami.org

  1. Log in the machine with Putty http://wiki.bitnami.org/cloud/how_to_connect_to_your_amazon_instance#How_can_use_SSH_to_connect_to_my_server_on_Windows.3f
  2. Download a module and install it. For example

    $ wget http://bitnami.org/files/stacks/dokuwiki/20120125a-0/bitnami-dokuwiki-20120125a-0-module-linux-installer.bin

    $ chmod 755 bitnami-dokuwiki-20120125a-0-module-linux-installer.bin

    $ ./bitnami-dokuwiki-20120125a-0-module-linux-installer.bin

And follow the installation steps. If you have started a MediaWiki instance and you want to isntall another one, this is not possible using modules yet. You can create a similar schema that BitNami creates for the applications and download the Mediawiki code. You can find more info at http://wiki.bitnami.org/Applications/BitNami_Custom_PHP_application

Thanks for your reply.

If I get it right, this would install a whole new stack.

Actually I already have an ec2 with bitnami including an configured apache server plus joomla and a mediawiki. What I now want to do, is to install an additionally mediawiki on this instance.

Is there a way to make this possible?

cheers, wez

If you already have a Mediawiki installed with BitNami running on that apache server and you don't want to install a new full stack, you will need to install the second Mediawiki manually.

Check the link that Beltran suggested. Once you have the required structure point your browser to the new url and follow the MediaWiki wizard that should appear.
