Hello
thnx for your answer, meanwhile i was looking at different servers
and i have found this one

http://www.uniformserver.com/

no installtion required for this one, just put in your drive and put 
pmwiki into proper folder under the uniserver folder structure and start 
the server, and pmwiki works just fine, i copied from actual web space 
into local drive, and it is working so far

maybe  this one and pmwiki can be offered in one package so that people 
do not need to spend hours trying to find how to do it? I am not a tech 
guys but i have enough knowledge to find way around, but not many people 
have similar skills.

This solution is ok, i was just curios to find a solution that requires 
less cpu. I really like wxwikiserver and moinmoin as standalone ones for 
example.


thnx
