Brion thanks that did it. I needed to uncomment ;extension= lines
for both xml and session support and restarted Apache. Obviously
this is the first PHP application I have worked with though I have
installed other server packages before.
As an FYI to MediaWiki developers, it would be nice if a note to
this effect was included in the installation docs so that future
installers would be spared the hassle. I am a DBA who works in
Unix in my job but haven't needed to work with PHP before. This
was easy once you put me on the scent.

I am looking for a simple and quick solution to getting the email functionality working for my Wiki.
Currently it is running on WAMP and i realise that I need to get the email functionality working to reset passwords.
Is there any way that I can just point my Wiki to my Gmail account to do this?
Many thanks
Mike

Hi List
Could someone help me? I've tryed to update my wiki from 1.4.10 to 1.10.0, but the update.php script has crashed with the following error:
...
Adding ipb_anon_only field to table ipblocks...Query "RENAME TABLE `ipblocks_newunique` TO `ipblocks`
" failed with error code "Error on rename of './wikidb/ipblocks_newunique' to './wikidb/ipblocks' (errno: 121) (localhost)".
If I restart the script again, it works fine, but I don't have any more articles in my new Wiki.
Of course I have a backup and I can go back, if needed.
Regards,
Stephan
I am encountering the WikiMedia error that several other people have
reported: "PHP's XML module is missing; the wiki requires functions
in this module and won't work in this configuration. "
I have already grepped Google Groups and the MediaWiki archives for
help on this, nothing really useful yet.
Details: I am installing MediaWiki 1.10.0
Database: MySQL PostgreSQL 5.0
PHP 5
OS: FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE #28
The errors I am getting:
Please include all of the lines below when reporting installation problems.
* PHP 5.2.2 installed
* Found database drivers for: MySQL PostgreSQL
* PHP server API is apache2handler; ok, using pretty URLs
(index.php/Page_Title) PHP's XML module is missing; the wiki requires
functions in this module and won't work in this configuration. If
you're running Mandrake, install the php-xml package.
But PHP XML is installed, pkg_info results:
pkg_info | grep -i xml
expat-2.0.0_1 XML 1.0 parser written in C
fontconfig-2.4.2_2,1 An XML-based font configuration API for X Windows
libxml2-2.6.27 XML parser library for GNOME
linux-expat-1.95.8 Linux/i386 binary port of Expat XML-parsing library
p5-XML-LibXML-1.63000 Interface to Gnome libxml2 library
p5-XML-LibXML-Common-0.13 Routines and Constants common for
XML::LibXML and XML::GDOM
p5-XML-LibXSLT-1.59 Perl interface to the GNOME XSLT library
p5-XML-NamespaceSupport-1.09_1 A simple generic namespace support class
p5-XML-SAX-0.15 Simple API for XML
php5-simplexml-5.2.3 The simplexml shared extension for php
php5-xml-5.2.3 The xml shared extension for php
php5-xmlreader-5.2.3 The xmlreader shared extension for php
php5-xmlwriter-5.2.3 The xmlwriter shared extension for php
I can provide phpinfo() info but I am reluctant to post the entire
thing to this list.
Can anyone help me get past this? If I cannot I probably am not
installing MediaWiki.
Thanks,
Jef Benner 312-520-0090
Is there a way to update a MediaWiki from 1.4.10 to 1.10.0?
(OK, i'll find some ways in the documantation, but it seams to me that no one works. Has anyone made this one time?)

Peter Blaise responds: Wow, great ideas and examples. On MediaWiki.org, we've been exploring the same, and I found this (below) lost in an install file which explains a bit about my struggle getting article "menus" into the navigation/sidebar (edit mediawiki:sidebar):
--
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Support_desk#mediawiki:sidebar_colori…
Note: ...\medaiwiki\maintenance\language\messages.txt DOES have some interesting information regarding the "sidebar" feature:
'sidebar' => "The sidebar for MonoBook is generated
from this message, lines that do not begin with * or **
are discarded, furthermore lines that do begin with ** and
do not contain | are also discarded, but don't depend on
this behaviour for future releases. Also note that since
each list value is wrapped in a unique XHTML id it should
only appear once and include characters that are legal
XHTML id names.",
Cool! This information saves my much time in trying to rebuild "navigation/sidebar" as a table of contents. The sidebar's not looking for pages addresses, it's looking for XHTML id names! ... now to find a table of contents/index on MediaWiki XHTML id names ...
--
I'm lookin' at skins/monobook.php and without a map, I guess it's just a matter of searching for "sidebar", pluging in the HTML and seeing what happens, then move it around and see what happens again, right?
Ken, let us know how it goes. Thanks for the pointer, Rob.

Hi all,
My host got back to me regarding the odd infinite redirection of my
Wiki, and said that it's caused by the fact that PHP5 on my shared
server is run using CGI, which is apparently not compatible with
MediaWiki. Is there a way to change that, or should I just stick with
ver. 1.6, since the Apache module on my server uses PHP4?
Thanks,
-Azurite
I've created a custom Google search for our sites, and would like to add
the code for it to our sidebar, so that users can access it directly
from our site. The HTML is:

Any idea how to do this? Am I going to have to write a plugin and use it
to return the HTML?
Thanks,
Ken

Is there an easier way for users to rename a page other than copying
over content from the old page to a new one and deleting the old one?
Thanks in advance
