How do MS SQL users install MediaWiki? - Wikitech-l

3 Mar 2013

I was looking for a way to test my fix to
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64338 and, having spent so much time on
MediaWiki, I thought MW would provide a good way to test the connection
to a MS SQL database.

I was somewhat surprised to see that even though we have a
db/DatabaseMssql.php, we don't have a installer/MssqlInstaller.php.

I imagine this is because when the installer was re-written, no one was
around to implement it for MS SQL.  Are SQL Server users just updating
their old MW installations?

    give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in
    judgment. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.
