Thanks for the response, but I have closed all browser windows, deleted all cookies, files and history and re-attempted with the same results as below. I have also tried adding ,"$IP/extensions", to the $path=array statement in the localsettings.php without success. The php error refers to line 141 of my localsettings.php, which reads $wgAuth = new Auth_remoteuser(); I'm guessing that Mediawiki can find the file Auth_remoteuser.php , otherwise, the require_once statement above would have created an error?. So does the php error mean that there is a bug within the "class Auth_remoteuser extends AuthPlugin" section of Auth_remoteuser.php? (I basically cut/pasted the code provided from the article - adding errorlog statements immediately in the the Auth_remoteuser function and class - neither have been generated. ) - ---- - - - -- On 4/25/06, Brion Vibber <brion(a)pobox.com> wrote: Brian C wrote: [snip] is dialog

Issue closed. After endless hours of #$%^&% I found that my cut/past of the code didn't copy the '?>' at the end of the extension. What an idiot I am.................. On 4/26/06, Brion Vibber <brion(a)pobox.com> wrote:
