I'm guessing that PHP isn't providing the correct paths to PmWiki.
You should probably start by manually setting the value of $ScriptUrl
in local/config.php to the url you expect PmWiki to be at. For example:
$ScriptUrl = 'http://mywebsite.org/mysubsite/pmwiki.php';
This will tell PmWiki to absolutely use this value as the base url
when constructing other paths within PmWiki links.
