Hi Mark,
So I'm a little bit further along but still getting stuck. I'm not sure what scriptpath is to be relative to (/var/www ?) nor why I get no such file or directory for both scriptpath and confpath. I configure apache virtual host settings for the wiki prior to install? Does it matter?
maintenance$ php install.php php install.php --name=ELT --admin=admin --pass=xx& --scriptpath=/elt.x.com/public_html/wiki/ --lang=en --dbtype=mysql --dbserver=localhost --dbname=wiki --dbprefix=smw --installdbuser=root --installdbpass=1689twentyfour& --dbuser=root --dbpass=xx& --confpath=/var/www/ elt.x.com/public_html/wiki/mediawiki-1.21.2/ [1] 18873 [2] 18874 [3] 18875 -bash: --scriptpath=/elt.x.com/public_html/wiki/: No such file or directory -bash: --confpath=/var/www/elt.x.com/public_html/wiki/mediawiki-1.21.2/: No such file or directory ec2-user@ELT:/var/www/ elt.x.com/public_html/wiki/mediawiki-1.21.2/maintenance$ --dbuser=root: command not found

I'm trying to setup some scripts to configure a fresh ubuntu server and install the semantic media wiki automatically or least sem-automatically. I've got up to the maintenance/install.php script. When I run the

again. No install is performed and no error message is presented.
I don't understand why this would log you out but I can say that you shouldn't be using sudo to do this. Also, you are using parameters in the wrong way. Instead of "--db:prefix:smw" you would use "--db-prefix=smw".
I did a lot of the work to adapt Chad's web-based installer to the CLI. Thanks for pointing out the lack of documentation for this. I'll work on improving it and I appreciate any further feedback you have.
Mark.
