(alternative) Install MediaWiki as an RPM from EPEL[edit
<https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Manual:Running_MediaWiki_on_Red_Hat_Linux&action=edit§ion=8>
]
As an alternative to the above *recommended* install, EPEL maintains a
pre-built package (.rpm file). The repository is located here: Fedora
Project Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL)
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL>. This package may be one or more
versions behind the current stable MediaWiki branch. However, many RHEL and
CentOS users find EPEL is a good source for packages not included in the
base system.
First, configure your Red Hat (CentOS) installation to recognize the EPEL
package repository, following these instructions: add the EPEL repository
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ#How_can_I_install_the_packages_from_the_EPEL_software_repository.3F>
as
a source for your package manager.
List the available EPEL MediaWiki packages:
yum list 'mediawiki*'
or, if you want descriptions of each package
yum info 'mediawiki*'
Then install those that you choose with a command like
yum install *packagenames go here, blank separated*
Is this documentation invalid? It's not working for me.
Thanks,
Eric

Hi,
I'm moving an old MediaWiki on to a new server, so I'm going through the
MediaWIki Upgrade procedure (
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading).
I'm trying to do the alternate install so that our patch process keeps it
up to date but I'm not finding mediawiki when listing. I set up EPEL so I
can see the packages:
rpm -Uvh
But then I look for the mediawiki packages like this, but nothing shows:
# yum list 'mediawiki*'
Loaded plugins: langpacks, product-id, rhnplugin, search-disabled-repos,
subscription-manager
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or Red Hat Satellite.
Error: No matching Packages to list
All I see is this:
# yum list '*mediawiki*'
Loaded plugins: langpacks, product-id, rhnplugin, search-disabled-repos,
subscription-manager
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or Red Hat Satellite.
Installed Packages
drupal7-mediawiki_api.noarch
1.0-0.14.rc1.el7 @epel
libmediawiki.x86_64 4.10.0-7.el7
@epel
libmediawiki-devel.x86_64 4.10.0-7.el7
@epel
python-simplemediawiki.noarch
1.2.0-0.3.b2.el7 @epel
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Eric
