One question: The status of links (broken, existing) NO LONGER UPDATE
on any Wiki posts. Does anyone know why this is? I don't ever plan on
implementing memcache (the lack of real documentation as to how I can
do it being the primary reason)... is this an issue for future
wikipedia releases? Is memcache (or lack thereof) ruining the Wiki's
ability to update broken/not broken links?
Probably nothing to do with memcache, as memcache is not used for links
in any way at present. Note that problems with link updates can be
caused by errors that occur at save time, which may be hidden by the
subsequent HTTP redirect to view the page. Try disabling the redirect
for debugging purposes. (Grep for 'Location:' and comment out the
header() call including it to disable automatic redirects.)
Are you using MySQL 3.x? If so, did you put $wgEnablePersistentLC =
false; into LocalSettings.php?
If not, could you check that the linkscc table is present?
Can you confirm that links are not being updated, rather than cached
pages not being updated?
Can you check your Apache error log for PHP error messages? Is PHP
configured to log error messages? What version of PHP are you running?
