Hi, I just installed MediaWiki 1.9, but it will not allow me to log in using the info I gave when I set it up. It rejects my password. In my "localsettings.php" file, it gives the proper password: just to be sure, I even copied the password from localsettings.php and pasted it into the login window. Any would be appreciated.
You tried to login in the browser into your mediawiki-installation? And you used a password, which is in localsettings.php? How your password is named? (NOT your password itself, but the label infront of it, in your localsettings.php).
Do you mean: $wgDBpassword = "secret"; ???
Use the username/password-combination, which you created while running the web-installer.
Regards, Jan

The password (I guess you're talking about $wgDBpassword ?) in LocalSettings.php is the password to access your MySQL database. It's not the password to log into mediawiki
During install you have been asked to create to things :
* one database user (default is wikiuser) * one mediawiki user (default is WikiSysop)
You must use the second one (and its password) to log into mediawiki
