Appendix A: TWiki Filesystem
Annotated directory and file listings, for the 01-Dec-2001 TWiki production release.
Who and What is This Good For?
Interested Users and Site Administrators can find out in simple terms what each part of TWiki actually does. Adventurous Adminstrators with server access to files (eg: FTP) can also figure out where to look to make minor modifications, like changing hardcode text or color. Software Developers can get an at-a-glance overview of TWiki code architecture.
Directory Structure
You can rename the root TWiki directory - twiki - to whatever you like by changing it in the TWiki.cfg configuration file. However, to keep the current installation and future upgrades simple, you should leave the five main subdirectories intact:
| Directory: | Files: | Used for: |
|---|
twiki | list | Start-up info |
twiki/bin | list | Perl scripts |
twiki/lib | list | Configuration file, main library, Perl system modules, Plugins directory |
twiki/pub | list | Public files (eg: images) and FileAttachments and their RCS histories |
twiki/data | list | Individual topics (page content) and their RCS histories |
twiki/templates | list | HTML templates, used by TWiki scripts |

TWiki File System Snapshot
The following partial directory listings from a Linux installation show typical file permissions and ownership. This is provided for general debugging use only and isn't an exact representation of the current distribution.
-
On an ISP installation... The user and group - twiki twiki - will probably be your domain or login name, eg: yourdomain yourdomain and can't be changed; same for nobody nobody files further down. Also, in the bin directory, scripts need a .cgi (sometimes .pl) extension._
