Hello
If I setup a test system in say /test and later want to make it
public and move it to the root directory, is it just a matter of
editing the config file after moving the files or is there more than
needs to be done?
Assuming you have access to the httpd.conf / apache2.conf, an apache
Alias directive will allow you to move the URL at which that mediawiki
appears at will; there doesn't have to be a slavish mapping between
the URL scheme and the directories on the server.
So you'd just say
Alias /wiki /test
(don't forget to restart apache to get it to reread the file). Docs:
