I am looking for a method of authenticating against Active Directory and possibly group permissions. Is this do-able? Does anybody have any experience making MediaWiki authenticate against Microsoft Active Directory? If so does it work well? Will this "deactivate" all ready existing MediaWiki accounts?
I have looked into and tried implementing the LDAP Authentication plugin and I am receiving errors. I am using WAMP (Windows, Apache 2.2.4, MySQL 5.0.45, PHP 5.2.3) and MediaWiki 1.10.1.
I have already done the following:
1. Copied LdapAuthentication.php to /extensions
2. Added the following to LocalSettings.php:
#
# Active Directory Authentication
#
require_once( "extensions/LdapAuthentication.php" );
$wgAuth = new LdapAuthenticationPlugin();
$wgLDAPDomainNames = array( "XORANTECH" );
$wgLDAPServerNames = array( "XORANTECH"=>"dcxoran.xorantech.local" );
$wgLDAPEncryptionType = array( "XORANTECH"=>"ssl" );
$wgLDAPRetrievePrefs = array( "XORANTECH"=>true ); //<- this is how to do it
$wgMinimalPasswordLength = 1;
$wgLDAPSearchStrings = array( "XORANTECH"=>"XORANTECH\\USER-NAME" );
$wgLDAPDebug = 3; //for debugging
$wgShowExceptionDetails = true; //for debugging MediaWiki
3. Copied the following files from the PHP directory to the Windows System directory (C:\%windir%\system32)
o libeay32.dll
o ssleay32.dll
4. Uncomment the following lines in php.ini:
o extension=php_ldap.dll
o extension=php_openssl.dll
5. Created directory C:\OpenLDAP\sysconf and created file named ldap.conf. In this File added "TLS_REQCERT never" in the first line.
When I try logging in using domain username/password I get the following debug:
Entering validDomain
User is using a valid domain.
Setting domain as: XORANTECH
Entering getCanonicalName
Username isn't empty.
Munged username: jspirko
Entering userExists
Entering authenticate
Entering Connect
Using SSL
Using servers: ldaps://dcxoran.xorantech.local
Then is just stops there with a blank white screen with the above debug info on it. Any ideas??
Thanks.

I am using the " Extra toolbar options" on our wiki
(http://mike2.openmethodology.org/index.php/MediaWiki:Common.js). But
Wikipedia doesn't seem to need them in the script? I have been
trying to customise this script for other things (e.g. the wikitable
class for tables) but whenever I add anything to Common.js I the extra
toolbar options disappear.
Any idea why they disappear? And how Wikipedia turns on these toolbar options?

I just did a install of mediawiki 3 days ago so I know absolutely nothing,
well I did get some great help on editing pages.
I know absolutely nothing about PHP.
I am having a hard time with a starting page.
After the install and initial startup of the wiki I go to:
http://mywiki.xxx:90/DHLXMLwiki/index.php/Main_Page
Ok, so I figure I can just start here and add some text and get on my way.
However I am getting to the wiki by way of a re-direct on a Windows 2003 IIS
web server to an Apache web server
on a different machine on the network.
My re-direct is set for http://mywiki.xxx/index.php/Main_Page
BUT (a big but) the URL in the browser is
http://mywiki.xxx:90/DHLXMLwiki/index.php/Main_Page/
There is no Main_Page/ so I am prompted to edit the page:
Main Page/
There is currently no text in this page, you can search for this page title
<http://dhlxml.mobiledhl.com:90/DHLXMLwiki/index.php/Special:Search/Main_Pag
e/> in other pages or edit
<http://dhlxml.mobiledhl.com:90/DHLXMLwiki/index.php?title=Main_Page/&action

What is the suggested way of doing a re-direct from IIS?
I have to use IIS for some other web sites at the IP address so, that I can
see, I have to use a re-direct.
This is really confusing to say the least.
Thanks for the help.

Hello I need your help with the extension:Renameuser. I am using MediaWIki version 1.10.0.
First I placed all of the files from Subversion in a folder with in extensions. But once I add require_once( "{$IP}/extensions/Renameuser/SpecialRenameuser.php" ); this line to LocalSettings.php I get a lot of random characters at the top of the page. Please help
Thanks

Hi Marc,
Sorry I forgot to do this yesterday...Account created. Actually,
lots of the CSHL people could have done it too, but they probably
forgot that they have the power. With your account, you can also
create new users on EcoliWiki.
The next version of TableEdit does away with the Create Table Here
link. Just puts an empty table in directly. I will try to work on
a way to make it do infoboxes like the ones on Wikipedia. You can
now make the float, though:
http://ecoliwiki.net/colipedia/index.php/Doodle
controlled by
http://ecoliwiki.net/colipedia/index.php/Template:Database_table
Does that work for reactome?

Tidy is not an extension to Mediawiki, it's a separate program.
There is a version in PHP that is convenient to use. Some info in this
thread:
http://www.mwusers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5057&highlight=tidy
Read all the posts - I mention one of the settings I forgot in a later post.
There is a bug in Parser.php if you are using PHP5 with PHP's Tidy. I
submitted a patch to Mediazilla but no one's done anything with it yet.
If you have a problem with it, the code to fix is posted here:

Last time I checked, this sets the defaults only for the first time a
user logs in. If a user has logged in previously, you need to update
the saved preferences via database script as mentioned early in this
thread.
Also you should probably be modifying LocalSettings.php rather than
includes/DefaultSettings.php....

There are several methods for eliminating index.php from the URL:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL
If you were using a simple rewrite rule, probably all you need to do is
disable the $wgArticlePath setting in LocalSettings.php:

I reinstalled mediawiki, eaccelerator was showing as not available.
So, after installing it, I added to the localsettings
$wgUseEAccelShm = true;
Im not sure if this is how you do it, but the manual on
$wgUseEAccelShm is lacking.
Is there a way to see if it is running?
I checked my version
http://64.22.97.143/~rpedia/index.php/Special:Version
But im not seeing either way.
? MediaWiki: 1.10.1
? PHP: 5.2.3 (apache)

I am are trying to link from one wiki on one server to one wiki on

This is on MW 1.10.0 and Apache.

It is not Apache. I have checked and hotlinking is not disabled.

Hi everybody,
in my industry (visual effects) we make intensive use of underscores
for our filenames and directories. For example, a shot in a movie
is uniquely identified with the construct <project>_<sequence>_<shot>.
This will result into something looking like this: HP3_075_010,
for the tenth shot of sequence 75 in the movie Harry Potter 3.
This is an established practice and works just fine, but when I create
an information page regarding a shot the filename will have the underscores
but the page title won't, as the underscores will be displayed as spaces.
Is there anything that I can do to prevent this? Wiki-wide or on a page
by page basis?
Thanks for your help!

Hi all,
I've been trying to get the Infoboxes to work on my Wiki ever since I
upgraded to 1.10. I've managed to get the majority of the templates in
place and everything, and I do understand that
ParserFunctions is required; I have it and it seems to be working fine.
But for some reason, the #if: call isn't working, and any HTML that
follows after it is showing up as if it were normally rendered, like
<table> and so on.
Here's an example page:
http://www.seventh-star.net/wikific/index.php?title=Yu-Gi-Oh
Is there any way to fix this? I've already checked out the
ParserFunctions and Infobox pages on Wikimedia, and the Discussion
pages, but there doesn't seem to be a solution to #if: acting finicky.
Help!
