look for the sourceforge installation, this matches your situation altough
it's not called sourceforge in your case ;-)
also have a look here:
http://lmuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Login_problem
i wrote down some problems i had with my installation.
also you don't need the register globals from 1.2++ not anymore!
good luck,
keep trying mediawiki ist probably the best thing i ever used online ;-)
Hello List.
My name is Pietro, and I have tried the whole day to
install mediawiki without success. The main problem is
that I don't have root access to the mysql.
I am being hosted by:
http://www.pchighway.com/
Which have some cool caratteristics (or so it seem at
my inexperienced eyes):
http://www.pchighway.com/hosting.htm
and
http://www.pchighway.com/plan_starter.htm
PHP 4.3.3 (With Zend Optimizer 2.1.0)
MySQL 4.0.15 (2 databases)
OS Version FreeBSD 4.9
So, in theory I should have the cards to make the
mediawiki work (which was the reason why I bought the
account in the first place!)
I'll explain all the relevant actions I did, so it is
easier for you to help me:
I downloaded mediawiki-1.2.3.tar.gz
Untarred, and unzipped in my computer.
ftp-ed in the directory /wiki (that is:
http://www.mysite.org/wiki )
I changed the chmod so that anybody could do
everything everywhere (is called trust), and I went to
the directory /wiki
You'll have to set the wiki up first!
sure.
MediaWiki 1.2.3 installation
Checking environment...
PHP 4.3.3 ok
PHP server API is apache; ok, using pretty URLs
(index.php/Page_Title)
Have zlib support; enabling output compression.
Found GD graphics library built-in, image thumbnailing
will be enabled if you enable uploads.
Installation directory:
/usr/home/ourpieee/public_html/wiki
Script URI path: /wiki
I complete the form, except for the sqlroot that I
don't have, and he does not like it. I go on the site
and I create the database, and the user, and the
password.
SO now those things are created from outside.
I go back to my form...
and he stills asks me for the root password.
I try to give him my user password, but he trats it as
a random password (unpleasent after all the time I
needed to think that up!)
So I decide that I cannot use the install from the
web, and I go to the file.
And if before I had problem, now... wow!
I take the AdminSettings.sample and
LocalSetting.sample, change what I think is right:
$wgDBadminuser = "pietrosperoni";
$wgDBadminpassword = "..." ;)
Now, it seems that the problem comes here:
I tried both:
$IP = "/wiki";
$IP = "/wiki/includes";
And I got:
-------------------------------

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: wfprofilein()

----------------------
As soon as I entered in the wiki directory.
What should I do?
BTW, the frontend panel of the sql has all sort of
privileges that can be granted to users:
User: ourpieee_wikiuse Db: ourpieee_wikidb
Privileges: ALL ALTER CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES
CREATE DELETE DROP SELECT INSERT UPDATE
REFERENCES INDEX LOCK TABLES
I am very perplexed.
Sorry if it was long, but I thought you probably
needed all those data, to help me.
MANY thanks for who ever can answer.
Pietro
