I just want a few people to be allowed to have accounts and edit pages in my
wiki. I've worked out how to only allow edit if you are loged in, but can't
work out an easy way to block account creation.

Hi List,
I hope this hasn't been asked before, if so, I apologize, I haven't found
it.
I know this is a problem of mysql 4.1 <--> php 5.
the problem with the workaround of the new authorization of mysql. Usually
i get around this by using the dos box with set user password
=old_password.....
but what can I do to fix this problem here?
thx Jan
P.s. or is there a way to switch to mysqli?
MediaWiki 1.3.7 installation
Please include all of the lines below when reporting installation problems.
Checking environment...
PHP 5.0.0: the MonoBook skin will be disabled due to an incompatibility
between the PHPTAL template library and PHP 5. The wiki should function
normally, but with the older look and feel.
PHP server API is apache2handler; ok, using pretty URLs
(index.php/Page_Title)
Have XML / Latin1-UTF-8 conversion support.
PHP is configured with no memory_limit.
Have zlib support; enabling output compression.
Found GD graphics library built-in, image thumbnailing will be enabled if
you enable uploads.
Installation directory: C:\internet\webpages\mediawiki-1.3.7
Script URI path: /mediawiki-1.3.7 Warning: $wgProxyKey is insecure
MySQL error 1251: Client does not support authentication protocol requested
by server; consider upgrading MySQL client
I have installed "mediaWiki" on my system and started adding my own
users and content. Now that I've gained some experience, I want to go
back and clean up some of the information I entered incorrectly. I've
been through the documentation, and I cannot see how to:
1) Delete a user
2) Delete a page
I'm sure I'm missing something very easy.
Please help.

Hi everybody,
I just recently ran across the Debian mediawiki install guide
(http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Running_MediaWiki_on_Debian_GNU/Linux)
which I followed and installed everything as described. Or so I
thought... Since I was testing everything using the same machine where
I had installed it (locahost) there were no problems. But when I try
to access the page from outside I get lots of errors, because I'm
constantly being redirected to localhost... and I have no idea why.
A better description of what is happening is here:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Running_MediaWiki_on_Debian_GNU/Linux#l…...
Could you please help? A wiki that people can't get into is of no use :(
I really would like to have this fixed.... by the way, this is
probably one of the best projects I've seen, great job to all
developers!!
Thanks a lot,
Roberto.
I installed a fresh copy of mediawiki-1.3.7, ran the config script and
copied LocalSettings.php into the root of my wiki.
Now all I get when I try to browse my wiki is the following. I can see the
xhtml_slim.pt file in the templates directory.
[filenotfound: message="xhtml_slim.pt not found" code=0 mode=return
level=notice prefix="" info=""]
Can someone please lend a hand? I can't seem to find much about it on the
web.
-Adam
Would it not be a good idea to move http://wikipedia.sourceforge.net/
to http://mediawiki.sourceforge.net/ (and make the former URL a
redirect)?
The fact that the MediaWiki home page is named "wikipedia''something''"
just seems to further the oft-encountered confusion about our various
project names.
Then again, that's just IMHO.

I'm looking to switch to a new host.
Can anyone recommend a good host that would allow me to run MediaWiki
w/o making a big fuss about it?
My further criteria:
- All communication should be in English (Host should preferably be
physically located in an English language country)
- Host should embrace a decidedly liberal stance in terms of "freedom
of speech"-rights. (No, we're not talking pr0n, just language.)
- Host should preferably be located outside the US (Ireland? Canada?
etc.).
- Host should preferably not cap monthly transfer or offer a large (ie.
20GB+) allowance
- Storage space should be 100 MB+
- Host should not use .NET, MS software or similar products epitomizing
the pinnacles of civilization (Linux/*BSD/Mac OS X Server would all be
fine).
- SMTP service should be available/part of the package
- webmail (eg. Horde) should be available/part of the package
- Host should ideally offer basic DNS services (i.e. I "bring my own
domain", point it at their DNS servers and am able to tinker a bit, eg.
using subdomain.mydomain.tld)
- Host should be affordable (ie. roughly near the area of EUR 80 / USD
100) p.a.
