And for my final email, it turns out that if you change WEBROOT you really have to do a reinstall due to deeper problems which break all the links in the blogs... so I'll add a reference to this in the installation guide so that people can decide beforehand about their directory structure / alias and not have to reinstall later.

As I was writing up the wiki at http://wiki.lyceum.ibiblio.org/index.php/Frequently_Asked_Questions I noticed something else:

The important thing to note is that you will need to alter the WEBROOT variable in your wp-config.php to match the alias. However, if you change WEBROOT then you must either reinstall Lyceum (to update the url rewriting rules) or manually edit one line of the .htaccess file which is created in /src/lyceum as follows:

# BEGIN Lyceum

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /lyceum

Just update the second part of the "RewriteBase" directive to match the alias you created.

The easiest thing to do (what i have done) in order to have a prettier
URL, which I'll add to the wiki, is to add an alias to your server's
configuration. I'm not sure how to do it in IIS, but for apache you
simply add a line like this:

Alias /lyceum /actualpath/lyceum/src/lyceum

or on windows:

Alias /lyceum "C:\Program Files\yourserver\path\lyceum\src\lyceum"

This is of course, assuming you are the admin of your server, otherwise
you'll need to ask your admin to create an alias.

Hi:

I have installed and run Lyceum and it is working
pretty good. This is what I was looking for. Now I
have some questions that I could not find in the list.


I have installed Lyceum under:
http://myhost/lyceum/src/lyceum

I would like to have it only under :
http://myhost/lyceum and have all the subdirectories
under src/lyceum in one directory, so I guess it
would ended with something like this:

http://myhost/lyceum/ajax/ http://myhost/lyceum/js/
http://myhost/lyceum/smilies/
http://myhost/lyceum/wp-admin/
http://myhost/lyceum/wp-content/

But my question would be, how about directories at the
level of http://myhost/lyceum/src that exist right
now?, can they be included all in one directory ?

something like: http://myhost/lyceum/bin
http://myhost/lyceum/config
http://myhost/lyceum/lib
http://myhost/lyceum/installation
