Just installed hiawatha on puppy linux box, the plan is to host 5-6 wordpress domains.

I used the following link to install http://www.puppylinux.org/wiki/archives/old-wikka-wikki/categoryusercontributions/lamp-vs-plhmp-php-and-mysql-with-hiawatha
However I'm stuck at the first hurdle, getting cgi timeout when running the install.php script with wordpress.

Any ideas what's worng?

I've tried a Wordpress installation myself and it worked fine. What I used is this:

UrlToolkit {
    ToolkitID = wordpress
    RequestURI exists Exit
    Match .* Rewrite /index.php
}

VirtualHost {
    Hostname = www.domain.com
    WebsiteRoot = /path/to/wordpress
    StartFile = index.php
    TriggerOnCGIstatus = false
    UseToolkit = wordpress
}

The Toolkit settings are only necessary if you plan to use permalinks. The error during installation is probably caused by the CGI Status error which is generated by Wordpress. The TriggerOnCGIstatus setting handles that problem.

Please let me know if this solves your problem.
