I just installed MediaWiki 1.6.3. It all seems to have gone okay, with the exception of an error message at the top of the browser window:
Warning: socket_sendto() Host lookup failed [-10001]: Unknown host in wiki/includes/GlobalFunctions.php on line 1504
I checked out the offending line, and it appears to be trying to open a socket to a machine called "webster" to do some kinds of statistics logging. I commented the line out and everything seems to work just fine.
What's going on here?
