Hi,
Unfortunately the requirement is to use Oracle and not mySql. When I installed php downloaded from php page
then I atleast got the page that was letting me provide the configuration information. But with Zend core the
setup page just says that it cant find a suitable driver (as shown below). Is there anyway to get around this?
Thanks
Rajesh

Did not try that.
I did try clicking on the refresh button while holding shift.
I guess these are two different things...I'll have to try that next
time.

Did you remember to clear your cache? You also may want to try purging
the parser cache using ?&action=purge (not sure if this will be
necessary or not, but it wouldn't hurt to try).

Hello,
I had a template. Lets say it was called 'XYZ Guide'.
The template was like below....
{| cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 style="background-color: #AEEEEE; border:
1px dashed black; padding: 0px 4px;"
|-
|
This article is part of the '''[[XYZ_GUIDE|XYZ Guide]]'''
|}
Now, I created a couple of pages with {{XYZ GUIDE}} and then decided I
would move the page XYZ_GUIDE to XYZ_INSTRUCTIONS using the move tab.
So I figured I should change the template too. I moved the template to
Template:XYZ_INSTRUCTIONS using the move tab. I also changed the
template to the following....
{| cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 style="background-color: #AEEEEE; border:
1px dashed black; padding: 0px 4px;"
|-
|
This article is part of the '''[[XYZ_INSTRUCTIONS|XYZ Instructions]]'''
|}
Now when I create new pages and have {{XYZ GUIDE}} on them the page the
template displays the word instructions and links to the instructions
page.
The problem I have now is all of the old pages still have a box that
says "XYZ Guide" on them.
Could someone please explain to me how this can be? I realize that I
have two templates now. One called XYZ_INSTRUCTIONS which says XYZ
Instructions and another one called XYZ_GUIDE which is a redirection to
XYZ_INSTRUCTIONS. So my question is...why am I still seeing the word
guide on my pages? I thought I got rid of it. The only thing that says
guide is the template which redirects to the Instruction template.
Thanks,
~Eric
For "create an article", use the inputbox extension already available...

For problem 2, did you try adding a Summary when you edit/create the

Hello,
I receive the error "The file is corrupt or has an incorrect extension.
Please check the file and upload again." when uploading Excel sheets.
I have added xls to the line; "$wgFileExtensions = array( 'png', 'jpg',
'jpeg', 'ogg', 'doc', 'ppt', 'mp3', 'xls', 'pdf' );"
Still uploads are not possible unless I use "#use external mime detector
(linux)
$wgMimeDetectorCommand= "file -bi";
The problem I face then is that my images do not show correctly because the
mime is not detected.
If anyone else has had this problem or if I am just looking in the wrong
place, I would really appreciate the help.

Hi All,
I am trying to setup wikimedia on windows using oracle database. I installed apache 2.0.58 and then installed
zend core for oracle (zend core engine version 2.0.5 / php version 5.0.5). I can connect to oracle using
a test php program so that part is working fine.
Now I downloaded Wikimedia and unzipped to apache/htdocs. When I try to run the setup all I am getting is
the message below.
---------------------------------------------------------------
MediaWiki 1.7.1 Installation
Don't forget security updates! Keep an eye on the low-traffic release announcements mailing list.
Checking environment...
Please include all of the lines below when reporting installation problems.
PHP 5.0.5 installed Could not find a suitable database driver!
For MySQL, compile PHP using --with-mysql, or install the mysql.so module
For PostgreSQL, compile PHP using --with-pgsql, or install the pgsql.so module
-----------------------------------------------------------------
What am I missing? Should I install mySql to make this work? Any information will be of great help.
Thanks
Rajesh

I am new to Wiki administration, so please excuse me if this has either been
already reported but it appears to me that 1.7.1 is rendering an additional
space after URL in Safari and Firefox on Mac OS. I have not tested this on
another platform.
We are running MediaWiki on FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE-p16 and PHP 5.1.
Spaces appear where marked [*]

It is a recent, forced, upgrade due to chances in our host's php and
ownership settings, that we are still bugfixing.
We have other smaller issue with icons above the edit box not loading etc.
that have not yet been investigated.
Thanks.
Hi!
I've installed eAccelerator, but it's not being detected by the mediawiki config script.
I'm using php-5.1.4 and mediawiki-1.7.1 on Fedora, and eaccelerator.so is currently at /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20050922 (original location). It's added to php.ini, and running php -v shows it is working, but mediawiki config says:
"Neither Turck MMCache nor eAccelerator nor APC are installed, can't use object caching functions."
Where does the config script look for it? Or how can I get it detected?
Thankyou for you suggestions....

Well, my site seems to have slowed somehow. Google analytics says that
you need to install the code snippet right before the </body> tag so
that the content on the site loads first. Now since I've loaded this
code snippet on my skin directly I'm wondering if that causes it to load
first before each page.....
Any help with this would be most appreciated..
Thanks guys,
AJ.

yes it will. I wonder if there is a more appropriate (without modifying
skin
files) way to do it..
this is quite a usual task - to insert some script/counter etc.
is copying/modifying a skin the recommended way to do it?
