It also help *A LOT* if you can get PHP's error logging turned on, as you might get more detailed error messages directly. Check with your hosting provider's support staff to see if they can do this for you and/or try adding the following near the top of config/index.php (after the <?php bit):
I have been struggling with the same problem for a few weeks now. I finally managed to get logs from my provider, and here is the result:
[Tue Sep 7 10:00:26 2004] [error] PHP Warning: Unknown(DefaultSettings.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /mn/sarpanitu/ansatte-u20/johans/www_docs/wiki/config/index.php(374) : eval()'d code on line 8 [Tue Sep 7 10:00:26 2004] [error] PHP Warning: (null)(): Failed opening 'DefaultSettings.php' for inclusion (include_path='.::/includes:/languages') in /mn/sarpanitu/ansatte-u20/johans/www_docs/wiki/config/index.php(374) : eval()'d code on line 8
I have tried to play around with the paths to the include dir, but it still only hangs.
Initial output from the config script is here:
Please include all of the lines below when reporting installation problems. Checking environment...
* PHP 4.3.8: ok * Warning: PHP's register_globals option is enabled. MediaWiki will work correctly, but this setting increases your exposure to potential security vulnerabilities in PHP-based software running on your server. You should disable it if you are able. * PHP server API is apache; ok, using pretty URLs (index.php/Page_Title) * Have XML / Latin1-UTF-8 conversion support. * PHP's memory_limit is 8M. If this is too low, installation may fail! Attempting to raise limit to 20M... ok. * Have zlib support; enabling output compression. * Couldn't find GD library or ImageMagick; image thumbnailing disabled. * Installation directory: * Script URI path: /johans/wiki
What I have notived is that there is no "Installation directory", could this be the source of the problem?
