Thanks, That was really useful, seems that zend optimizer has been
installed and is listed as enabled.
I use the free speed test service to check its speed, and it shows me
anywhere betweeen 30-50 seconds ( which is huge ) to open up the main
page.
http://the-good-food-guide.com
Now my main page is pretty large, I figure that's probably why , but
when I try testing some of the content pages inside the site. It still
comes back with a time for 15-20 seconds...
It might be coz there's another process running on the same CPU hoggin
resources....
Thoughts?
Thanks for the help.....
AJ.

You can easily check if Zend Optimiser is running, with the following
PHP
program:
--------------------------
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
--------------------------
My guess is that your provider is just sloooooooow (maybe sharing too
many
hosts per machine? or maybe has a CPU-hog on the shared machine?).
Can you be more precise about how slow? Does it affect all operations?
View? Edit? Just large pages?
My site, http://en.chainki.org has over 10000 pages, is on a shared
server,
and is so far pretty fast (except when generating massive
"disambiguation"
pages) without any optimisation software.

Sorry, it was the "Related changes" feature and not the History link (wrong
translation on my part).
It was a wrong variable name. I renamed the variable from $skin to $sk and I
don't get an error anymore.

I upgraded from MediaWiki 1.6.3 to 1.7.1. Everything went fine overall, I
didn't see any error and I can see the articles.
When I try to see the history for an article, that's when I get this error
Undefined variable: skin in .../includes/ChangesList.php on line 52
Any ideas what's wrong?
Thanks,
Adrian
Ok, I've googled, I've search the mediawiki and wikimedia websites, and all I
can find on the above topic are blunt statements like "SVG is supported in
wikimedia" ... but it apparently doesn't work out of the box, at least not in
1.7.1.
So how do I turn it on? I have managed to deduce that I need to add "svg" to
the list of accepted upload file types, and I've checked the configuration
setting for which program to use to convert, and I've verified I have that
program (ImageMagick's convert) installed.
But any SVG images I upload still show up not at all. What's the trick?
Hello,
I've had installed the 1.6 version of Mediawiki and imported an XML-Dump of the german Wikipedia to do some queries (and not to annoy the Wikipedia Servers to much ;-). I was hoping to get a sorted list of relevant articles as result of a "search" (by relevance in percent). This is the case in all Wikipedias. Instead I get a list grouped by "found in title", "found in article" etc with no relevance information.
Therefor I upgraded to the most recent version (1.7.1) and ran the update.php script. This didn't change the behaviour. I tried to find an option for that but had no luck.
How can I achieve search results sorted by relevance (in percent)? Thanks in advance for any help!
Regards,
Peter
Hi,
I'm sure as the size of the database ( number of articles )
increases the wiki will slow down. Are there any ways I can help speed
it up? I remember looking at an application that allowed you to delete
all versions in the history except the most current one . Will this
help? Right now I'm running the app on a shared system.
Thanks for any info....

It's on neither of those.
Do the "history" tab, THEN you MUST press "Compare selected versions"
before you will see a textual link: "[rollback]" on the right.
