Apologies in advanced if this is a retardo question ;-)
I just installed MySQL, PHP and the MediaWiki software. It's running under IIS on Windows XP Pro.
When I first visited http://localhost/wiki, it sent me to the initial configuration screen, which seemed to go well. It told me everything it was doing, and indicated that configuration had gone successfully. Finally, it pointed me back to http://localhost/wiki/index.php.
When I went there, I got a browser page back from IIS saying that it couldn't find .../Main_Page. Any idea what's going on?
Use Apache on Linux/Unix unless you have some very, very good reason not to. If you must use Windows, use Apache. If you must use IIS, you'll have to figure it out on your own as we don't have it or support it.
If you can't configure IIS correctly, try switching the $wgArticlePath to 'ugly URL' style.
