Be careful with this. It uses a custom build pack (fork of standard PHP
BP) and last I saw, it wasn't updated for `cflinuxfs2`.

if you're in a private deployment, the services shown for drupal are both
available as oss and listed on bosh.io.

mediawiki is a php app with mysql as an option:
https://www.mediawiki.org

but i'm not aware of install instructions for that. there are other
options here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wiki_software

Hi Stephan,

I managed to get an instiki(instiki.org) instance up and running on PWS.
I
had to change a few things to get it to work and even with those changes,
it
isn't great yet. For example, uploaded files are stored locally in the
Warden container. Therefore, they get lost when the app is restarted. But
it
wouldn't be to hard to change the code to use an S3 bucket as a storage
solution, I just didn't bother yet.

I will clean up my local changes and document them, then I'll push them up
to github.

P.S.: I also looked for some other open source wiki engines. I didn't
find a
single one that could be deployed to CF (or any other PaaS) without major
changes.
