Right thanks,,,
I'm wondering I was looking at the http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Importdocumentation
php importDump.php --conf LocalSettings.php dumpfile.xml.gz wikidb
For the this command where you import with the localSetting.php. It doesn't really say what adding the Localsettings file does in the documentation.
Does this replace the LocalSettings.php file?
It seems like running a statement like that might forgo the need to run the install.php. Does it?
Thanks

The bash error gives it away. You need to quote your parameters if they contain special character so the shell doesn't interpret them.

Hi Mark,
So I'm a little bit further along but still getting stuck. I'm not sure what scriptpath is to be relative to (/var/www ?) nor why I get no such file or directory for both scriptpath and confpath. I configure apache virtual host settings for the wiki prior to install? Does it matter?
maintenance$ php install.php php install.php --name=ELT --admin=admin --pass=xx& --scriptpath=/elt.x.com/public_html/wiki/ --lang=en --dbtype=mysql --dbserver=localhost --dbname=wiki --dbprefix=smw --installdbuser=root --installdbpass=1689twentyfour& --dbuser=root --dbpass=xx& --confpath=/var/www/ elt.x.com/public_html/wiki/mediawiki-1.21.2/ [1] 18873 [2] 18874 [3] 18875 -bash: --scriptpath=/elt.x.com/public_html/wiki/: No such file or directory -bash: --confpath=/var/www/elt.x.com/public_html/wiki/mediawiki-1.21.2/: No such file or directory ec2-user@ELT:/var/www/ elt.x.com/public_html/wiki/mediawiki-1.21.2/maintenance$ --dbuser=root: command not found

again. No install is performed and no error message is presented.
I don't understand why this would log you out but I can say that you shouldn't be using sudo to do this. Also, you are using parameters in the wrong way. Instead of "--db:prefix:smw" you would use "--db-prefix=smw".
I did a lot of the work to adapt Chad's web-based installer to the CLI. Thanks for pointing out the lack of documentation for this. I'll work on improving it and I appreciate any further feedback you have.
Mark.
