MediaWiki 1.3.8 is a bugfix release. Those running wikis with uploads
enabled are strongly recommended to upgrade as this fixes several
problems
with overwriting previously-uploaded files.
(Users already running 1.3.7 who want only the upload fix need copy in
only the updated SpecialUpload.php. However including all updated files
is recommended as there are a number of other bug fixes.)
Changes from 1.3.7:
* (bug 506) fix array_key_exists() warning for IIS servers using
ISAPI mode
* (bug 718) fix bad charset in (file) cached pages
* use local numerals in category page (for Hindi et al)
* alias month abbreviations to month names in Hindi
* add localized numerals for Gujarati and Kannada
* fix Category and project namespaces for Hindi
* Don't output bogus timestamp on Special:Recentchanges if no entries
* Correct template include path which broke some but not all Windows
installs
* Fix edit form submission problem with some PHP versions
* Disallow unreachable titles with %XX hex codes
* Allow page [[0]] to be renamed
* (bug 774) when saving with section=new, return to the anchor as with
existing numbered section edits
* Experimental shared upload overlay area (disabled by default)
* (bug 806) Removed some "Wikipedia" hardcoding in German localization
* User option localization fix for some extensions
* (bug 809) now try to load the mysql php extension if it isn't loaded
* (bug 848) fix error message in Special:Newpages RSS and Atom feeds
* (bug 26) fix cache headers on anon talk page notification
* (bug 874) added 'cgi' to wgFileBlacklist
* (bug 862) localize date and time format for Finnish
* (bug 548) Don't overwrite images until the user confirms it

Hello,
I have installed MediaWiki in /export/home/mediawiki on Solaris 8 . I do have PHP and apache2. I am very new to his media wiki. I have configured necessary PHP entries in apache and added this line also in the end [ ScriptAlias /mediawiki "/export/home/mediawiki" ]
Have set full permissions for all but I am not able to access it with apache. it says " permission denied".
But If I copy the mediawiki folder to the apache's htdocs folder then I am able to access it. I am not ablt to understand why it is not accessing from the home directory. can anyone please help me with this.
Thanks

Hi,
I just installed the newest Fedora version (3) on a box and I intend
to use it as a Wikimedia server. I got stuck on the "Can't write
config file, aborting" screen complaining about doing the "chmod a+w
config" command. I've obviously done the command but the error screen
keeps popping up. I do the same exact steps on an older Fedora Core 2
box, and the setup goes off without a hitch.
Thanks.
A very good idea, indeed! With a one-click install of MAMP preferably. (I gave up on installing MAMP. Can't get it to work.)

Hallo!
Ich arbeite erst seit kurzem mit mediawiki (für unsere LUG) und bin
begeistert. Die Begeisterung der Handhabung geht so weit, das ich diese
gerne auch privat einsetzen möchte.
Nun meine Fragen:
1. Ich möchte meine Seite gerne barrierefrei gestalten und so schlicht wie
möglich halten. Erste Umsetzungen habe ich im Hinblick darauf gemacht. Meine
Frage nun, kann ich mediawiki so konfigurieren, das der Besucher nur den
Inhalt sieht, aber zum Beispiel nicht die linke Navigation? Wenn ich als
Autor mich anmelde ist mir das Layout egal. Meine Website ist
www.seidlers.net.
2. Bei der Site von der LUG (wiki.lug-ld.de) habe ich die Artikel
nachträglich strukturiert und entsprechend verschoben. Nun sehe ich aber das
die alten Bezeichner noch existieren. Wenn man draufdrückt, dann kommt immer
eine Weiterleitungs-Meldung. Kann man die alten Bezeichner aus dem Wiki
entfernen?
Das wars erstmal. Herzlichen Dank im voraus, für Eure anworten.
CU Marcus

I recently came across a wiki which implements a more useful way to
access (search) pages by actually implementing a form of fuzzy
(approximate) bookmarking. Perhaps this is a way to improve the
userfriendliness of MediaWiki, too.
I filed bugzilla http://bugzilla.wikipedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=883 for this.

From the content:
To search for the word "cgi" in all page titles, you can use the URL:
http://purl.org/tcl/wiki/cgi
To search for this word in all titles and in the full texts, use:
http://purl.org/tcl/wiki/cgi* (in general: an regular expression)
But there's a little more to it. That last URL is actually a form of
fuzzy bookmarking. There is no web page called "search". Wikit presents
its contents as if it were a directory with pages, but its all smoke and
mirrors...
Dear friends
On working with mediawiki 1.3.7 i encountered the following problem: the
german Umlaute ä,ö,ü, are not displaied. See:
http://www.italien.ch/wiki/index.php/Hauptseite
Under the register navigation, for example, "letzte nderungen" should be
"letzte Änderungen" or "Zuflliger Artikel" should correctly be "Zufälliger
Artikel". You can see the effect on the buttom line to, "ber Italien.ch"
should be "über Italien.ch".
In the LocalSettings.php i did the following definitions:
$wgLanguageCode = "de";
$wgUseLatin1 = false;
The PhpMyAdmin version is 2.5.6
And the MySQL version is 4.0.20
In the Phpmyadmin i have defined the language "German de-iso-8859-1"
Could you give me any solving proposals of my problem?
Thank you in advance.
Yours faithfully
Andrea
Hello, I am the administrator of a freshly installed copy of
MediaWiki. I've hunted and pecked around the MediaWiki guide but can't
see how to modify the style sheets to change the look of my new wiki,
or maintain skins or anything.
I'm a pretty versed programmer, sysadmin, etc. I'm comfortable with
hacking about in CSS and [X]HTML. I could just jump in and start
hacking away at stylesheets/mono/main.css, but that strikes me as a
brutish approach.. I'm guessing either there's a way of setting up a
seperate folder for skinned files, or even better, a way of
maintaining one's css/js via the wiki itself?
Advice or links to disambiguous materials would be great! thanks :)

Is there a developers guide for MediaWiki? Unfortunately the code
doesn't seem to be well documented as far as comments and such go. Tsk
tsk. ;)

For anyone remembers a little while back that I suggested writting
general software for integrating popular LAMP software into a single
web interface (same User DB, etc.). (The subject was "Homepage
Integration", about November 2 and 3.)
If anyone interested in helping me in this venture would e-mail me, we
can discuss how to implement this. (I feel discussion is beyond the
scope of this mailing list.)
I am announcing it here because this is where it was brought up. I do
not plan on keeping it here.
