This is designed to be a helpful post to other noobs, since I just finished installing Serendipity using the following:
OS X 10.2.8
Apache 1.3.x
PHP 4.5
MySQL 4.0.17
The installation went just fine; the only trouble I had was with the 'virtual' directory structure for the following dirs:
/entries
/archives
Since these questions came up in some other posts (with very brief replies), here's a few tips.
These two dirs are virtual, in that no actual files are written by the software when you post -- its all stored in mySQL and accessed by the index file (which is referenced by the htaccess.tpl file, I think).
To enable the correct operation of the virtual directories, you have to do two things (which I found -- finally -- after looking at several different posts:
1. Add the following to your httpd.conf
<Directory "/path/to_serendipity_files">
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
2. Restart the Apache server.
Once I did that. Everything worked like magic.
