I edited the LocalSettings.php and AdminSettings.php files as directed, ran the classic install (not the web-based installer), and everything seemed to go through just fine.

However, after running the installer, the following files are empty:

It looks like you're trying to install in-place. The destination directory MUST NOT be the same as the source directory with the classic install.

Actually when trying to use install.php i run into the same problem of zero byte files and i did _not_ install in the source directory. I fixed the problem by copying the files by hand from the source directory and includes directory.

The web install works otherwise quite ok, but i find myself unable to access the mediawiki-namespace messages at MediaWiki:All_messages. It just gives an empty page. I used Finnish as the language, if that information helps. -juxho
