Thank you! This has brought me a little close to my goal. Unfortunately
the Main_Page I get to is not the pretty one I was seeing before (with a
sunflower, and other mediawiki decorations and such). You can see what
I get by going here:
Yes, the Main Page is in the database.
Assuming you're using Apache, simply enable mod_alias and then put
this in your Apache Config:
ScriptAlias /mfqzww /srv/mediawiki/index.php
Then change $wgScriptPath.

a directory called "mfqzww" somewhere? (Didn't think so; there's no
directory
called "wiki".)
Generally, I don't understand where things are. When I point a
browser to
localhost/wiki, I get redirected to localhost/wiki/index.php/
Main_Page. I
see I have an index.php in /srv/mediawiki (same as the directory with
LocalSettings.php). But where is Main_Page? There's no such file.
Is
Main_Page just something in a MySql database?
My goal is quite simple. I'm trying to set up a wiki for myself and a
few friends (we're not all on the same network though), and I'd like
to rely on obscurity to keep the material reasonably invisible to the
rest of the world. Unwanted visitors might guess
http://tedsserver.net/wiki
,
but probably not something like
http://tedsserver.net/mfqzww. So
that's
all I want to do; change "wiki" to "mfqzww". And unfortunately,
just
changing $wgScriptPath doesn't seem to be enough.
