Hi –

I’ve been using Mediawiki to build online help for our PaaS solution. It works well, but I’m the lone writer, because contributors aren’t inclined to learn MW syntax.

I just found the Sun Wiki Publisher extension and I think it could be the solution I’m looking for.

I ran into a problem and wonder if you can help:

• Installed: OpenOffice and the Sun Wiki Publisher extension

• In OpenOffice.Writer: Click Tools | Extension Manager | Sun Wiki

Publisher | Options | Add

• In dialog box MediaWiki Server, enter:

URL: http://clev9.com/~platfor1/wiki/

Username: Mediawiki username

Password: Mediawiki password

Error: A connection to MediaWiki system at “ http://clev9.com/~platfor1/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Pagehttp://clev9.com/%7Eplatfor1/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page” could not be created

Any ideas? Is this a localsettings.php or permission issue?

Thanks in advance for your advice. Best,

Evelyn
