[WikiEN-l] Problems with getting a wiki site running

Tue Oct 11 13:36:07 UTC 2005

Dear All,

I've been trying to set up a mediawiki site for collaborative 
scientific instrument development. I have got through the install 
procedure, moved the LocalSettings.php file to the www.cmr.uk.com/wiki 
directory and then followed the link suggested by web installer (listed 
below) only to get the message "no input file specified".

Q - is this a bug or am I being stupid - Do I need to make some content 
files before I start -  I had assumed that once wiki had been installed 
I could add content purely through the wiki interface.

Any help would be very useful.

Many thanks

Kurt
