Well, let's ask the obvious questions, then. Does
the file it's
looking for exist? Try altering the paths a little. Can the
directory/file be written to (if TeX needs to write to it)?
No matter what I did, the package didn't work. Could you tell me how
or forward me to, step by step directions for installing WikiTeX and
its respective extensions? I've deleted the installation and removed
the inclusion from LocalSettings.php until I know what I'm really doing!
