Hello,
I've got a little problem with disabling read and new user registrations in LocalSettings.php - I've got the following settings from Meta (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:User_rights):
$wgShowIPinHeader = false; # For non-logged in users $wgWhitelistRead = array( "Main Page", "Special:Userlogin", "-", "MediaWiki:Monobook.css" ); $wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = false;
What I expected to happen was, that...
- new user registrations shouldn't be possible - no one except the sysops can read/edit the Wiki (including talk pages)
I'm not sure whether this would also include Google et al not indexing the pages, but that'd be another thing I'd like to have for now.
Unfortunately the result is, that I can't log in anymore (via Special:UserLogin).
Any ideas? :)
Thanks in advance, Thomas Tschoellitsch
I'm trying to put mediawiki into a framed page, or run it in a site like joomla.
Although everytime the page loads, it reopens, the page. So if its in a framed, it will reload the wiki page by itself only!
Any ideas?

His reply is that you should read the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions), which is located at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_FAQ and contains the answer to your question.
When you run into a problem, it's a good idea to do at least some basic searching for your answer before posting, as I've done here. I've found most of the answers I need (and I'm a total n00b when it comes to this stuff). The help at http://meta.wikimedia.org is a great resource and probably answers about 98% of my questions.

Add this: $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['edit'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['read'] = true;
The sysop group doesn't explicitly have 'read' and 'edit'...those are global permissions by default. Since you turned off global read, you need to explicitly declare sysop read/edit. See DefaultSettings.php...any global ('*') permission you disable should be explicitly reenabled for sysop or whatever other group you need to make sure gets the permission.

I have this in my LocalSettings.php file : $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createaccount'] = false; $wgWhitelistRead = array ("Main Page", "Special:Userlogin","Wiki:General disclaimer"); $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['read'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['edit'] = false;
And I still am allowed to get to the Main Page without having to explicitly having to add those 2 lines. And how will the wiki will know you are a sysop to allow you access to read if you haven't logged in yet? I think the problem might be on the $wgWhitelistRead = array( "Main Page", "Special:Userlogin", "-", "MediaWiki:Monobook.css" ); lines. Make sure that there is not a line break between these 2 lines in LocalSettings.php and that is is indeed one line. Or try putting that line directly above $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['read'] = false;
Hope this works.
Hello,
Has anyone attempted to use PKI authentication via Apache's FakeBasicAuth directive..

Not that exactly, but I have MediaWiki integrated with LDAP-backed authentication, using basic auth in Apache. I imagine PKI-based auth could work just the same way.
