I'm looking for alternative for track:
http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/

Because it has SVN support and it uses wiki, has ticket and milestone system.
(no forums though)

But it has one problem, it uses SQLLite or postGre when mySQL would be the ideal.

Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Well I already had a web site space and domain so it did not cost anything extra to install tikiwiki. And I am using it now but I still need SVN repository so I'm now talking with the webhost to see if they can provide SVN service. That's probably going to cost some extra because SVN needs SVN server unlike wiki which can be installed in web server.

Let me know how this works out for you. You know my feelings on this,
but I'd like to know how it works for you.

Btw what is the disadvantage between SQLLite-postGre vs. mySQL?

and

installed both briefly but haven't really looked at them enough to have an opinion, other than they are both opensource i think and use mysql

Thanks, I had (and still have) dotproject installed but it's slow. Now just slow in loading times but managing tasks and task logs takes too many steps in my opinion since dotproject is designed for multiple projects and companies.
I tested phprojekt too but I don't remember any more what made me choose dotproject instead of it...

Yes sorry, I meant subversion. And I don't know what are the technical differences between those three databases but I think most web hosting providers offer mySQL database so SQLLite and postGre are more rarely provided by hosting companies if I'm not badly mistaken.

Ok I will. So far it's looking good, tikiwiki's user groups was easy to setup so that only registered users may view and edit stuff and all needed modules (forums,shoutbox,wiki etc) we're easy to toggle on.
So it's pretty simple to setup (after installation).

Wiki's in general are great way to build project documentation since every one in the development team can contribute to the documentation easily by editing the wiki pages. On top of that tikiwiki adds forums, file/image gallery, chat, trackers and workflow monitoring.
From those trackers, file gallery and workflow monitoring are most important for projects in my opinion, however track does this better because it also has page for milestones and tickets go under each milestone and it has SVN support which tikiwiki doesn't have.

Basically tikiwiki is suitable for projects and communities as it provides wide range of installable features.
Read more about the features from here: http://doc.tikiwiki.org/tiki-index.php?page=Features

All in all I think tikiwiki is good not just for projects but for any community site.
