[pmwiki-users] after update - unable to edit

When you went to the pmwiki.php page, did PmWiki give you the default
home page or did it give you instructions for creating wiki.d ?

Normally PmWiki will create wiki.d for you, or it will tell you what
needs to be changed in order to create it.

You might also need to temporarily rename local/config.php to something
else in case there are any recipes that are affecting normal startup.
