DSpace 7.6.1 Enable Dokuwiki next to DSpace on same Server on Subpage /wiki

[Matthias Letsch]

Hello there,

I am currently testing the possibility of providing a wiki (Dokuwiki) on the same server to accompany our DSpace.

The wiki is stored on the DSpace path under /home/dspace/dspace-wiki/wiki, and thus next to the DSpace backend folder /home/dspace/dspace-backend/

I have added an alias for /wiki in the Apache2 configuration:

Alias /wiki /home/dspace/dspace-wiki/wiki
<Directory /home/dspace/dspace-wiki/wiki>
    Options +FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Require all granted
</directory>

Also a rewrite condition:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/wiki/.*$ [NC]

However, when I call the page [DSpace-URL]/wiki, I still end up on a 404 page within the Angular front end of DSpace, i.e. Angular is still trying to process the subpage, which is outside the Angular framework.

(With /server/oai, for example, it is my understanding that the page is accessed outside of Angular)

By any chance, does anyone have experience with setting up a service in parallel to DSpace on the same server and can help me with what I'm missing here or what I need to set in order to reach the wiki start page under /wiki via the browser?

Thank you and kind regards
Matthias
