Hi this wiki is giving me too many random errors to sort out and since its still early in its life and has a manageable small number of pages im going to copy the content from the edit pages and start again. So what i'd like to know is suggestions of what server/php/mysql versions or packages containing all three work well with mediaWIKI on windows. Has anyone had a beautiful error/stress free install? What version on mediawiki are you using etc?
Any suggestions much appreciated.
Regards Caspar
XAMPP http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html worked really well for me. But, like a lot of other all-in-one packages, you'll need to do some messing around to get it secure and production-ready.
As a test server (on my own XP system), it works wonderfully. It was easy to set up (although I did have some issues with MySQL not finding the logs). It includes everything you'll need, and comes with PHP5 and 4 (5 is default).
After installing it and doing some basic tests, try doing some digging. There's a lot in there.
