For some reason, when I go to:
http://www.myhost.org/index.php/Some_Topic
this format doesn't work! The only way it works for me is with the
?title= format. (I don't use a wiki subdirectory to hold everything)
Is PHP running in CGI, FastCGI, or apache2filter (instead of
apache2handler) mode? If so, index.php/Some_Topic won't work and you
must use index.php?title=Some_Topic. The installation script would have
warned you about this with a message like this:
PHP server API is cgi; using ugly URLs (index.php?title=Page_Title)
Some other obscure modes might have similar problems that we don't know
about yet.
Rewrite rules will allow you to make something that looks nicer, but it
must still be rewritten into index.php?title=Some_Topic on the back
end.
