[Mediawiki-l] Installation on fails with 1.4.3 under Mac 1.3.9

Hi, folks. I'd be glad to read a troubleshooting guide if there is one 
to which someone can refer me. I've searched the archives (mac install 
site:mail.wikimedia.org) without success, though I many have overlooked 
something.

I'm hoping to install 1.4.3 on a Mac (OS X 10.3.9; MySQL 4.1.0 with PHP 
4.3.10 and Apache. I've appended the results from 
congif/index.php[blah-blah] that runs after I completed the install 
form (a second time because of the old-new password issue). My Web 
server error_log only shows

>   [request time] [request source] File does not exist: 
> /Library/WebServer/Documents/wiki/upload/wiki.png

which seems pretty innocuous.

I've also appended a copy of the directory listing for mediawiki. I've 
changed the mode of the directory to a secure setting while I go do 
some other tasks, but I'd welcome suggestions that I can test tomorrow.

Thanks,

JohnL
