I have installed basic requirements using EasyPHP on
windows2000 and then installed wikimedia.
There are some steps written in installation help on
wikimedia.org site :-
Edit /includes/DefaultSettings.php
As the first variable declaration, insert $IP="{Actual Pathname of MediaWiki}"
e.g $IP = "C:\\EasyPHP\\www\\mediawiki" (note the double backslashes)
The installation should have already have done exactly this. Did
something go wrong? What exactly was the problem?
Change stylepath to $wgStylePath =
"$wgScriptPath/stylesheets";
Why would you do this? That was the old path on 1.3 and earlier, but no
longer exists with the MediaWiki distribution in 1.4.
Remove all curly brackets inside strings - anything
like "{$this}/foo" should be "$this/foo"
Why would you do this? It will either have no effect (where the
following character is eg a slash) or will corrupt your settings (where
the following character is a letter etc.)
Change logo path to $wgLogo=
"$wgScriptPath/stylesheets/images/wiki.png";
Why would you do this? See above.
after doing all this I accessed
http://localhost/mediawiki-1.4.4/ but it shows error like
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at
c:\users\mmittal\easyphp1-8\www\mediawiki-1.4.4\includes\DefaultSettings.php:1) in

Your DefaultSettings.php file is corrupt. Perhaps you have edited it and
added spaces or blank lines at the beginning.
