I'm running an old Xubuntu, but I install MoinMoin from source in order to
be up to date.

However, I've now installed the MoinMoin package. It's 1.9.2 and has a
similar layout to that. The htdocs directory is in /usr/share/moin, so
assuming that is the same in your case

   alias  /moin_static193  "/usr/share/moin/htdocs"

should work.

In following the advice in the link you quoted in your first message you've
tried to use

   alias  /moin_static193  "usr/share/moin/htdocs"

Note the missing leading slash. Is that all that the problem is?
