INSTALLATION TROUBLE

Hi there. Needing help, ASAP, please!

Okay... (I'm just going to copy instalation instructions and go through it like a checklist)

Here are the files that should be necessary to run the CitiWiki.

http://wiki.cs.cityu.edu.hk/src/citiwiki.tar.gz -- Downloaded and uploaded
http://wiki.cs.cityu.edu.hk/src/sites.sql -- Downloaded and run on mySQL database
http://wiki.cs.cityu.edu.hk/src/users.sql -- "

... Okay...

To get it to run:
setup a database and database user if it is needed -- DONE. Database = GenWiki, User = genwiki_admin
run the sites.sql and users.sql on your database to create the basic tables needed -- DONE and CHECKED. Worked fine.
change the citiwiki.config.php to match your environment -- DONE. Copying info:

<?php
wakka.config.php written at Thu Nov 27 17:28:28 2003
do not change wakka_version manually!

$wakkaConfig = array(
"mysql_host" => "mysql06.powweb.com",
"mysql_database" => "GenWiki",
"mysql_user" => "genwiki_admin",
"mysql_password" => "PRIVATE",
"root_url" => "http://nativesouth.org/genwiki/"
"default_site" => "index.php" <-- Wasn't sure about this. Help me out, here!
);
?>

change the ./setup/.htaccess to match your user database -- TRIED. Having problems with .htaccess and .htpasswd, but not too concerned, as I was planning on just setting up one wiki and deleting the setup folder for security.
point your browser to the ./setup/index.php -- DONE. Went through it, and all looked well. No error messages, all tables created, BUT it http://nativesouth.org/genwiki/index.php sends me to wakka.php, which doesn't exist!
set up the information for the first site -- ? Not sure here.
set the first entry in the database table "_sites" to specify the settings for your default site, the name of the site should match that in citiwiki.config.php -- TRYING. Here, I'll show you what's in there. PLEASE make this work! :)
