I can't get this quite right. I have "www.mediaanthropology.net" as a add-on of "www.johnnorvell.net" pointing to files in /public_html/mediaanthropology. The wiki is in /public_html/mediaanthropology/wiki. I can get the wiki to appear normally when I access it as "www.johnnorvell.net/mediaanthropology/wiki" and have the following LocalSettings/php lines:

$IP = "/home/johnnorv/public_html/mediaanthropology/wiki"; ini_set( "include_path", ".:$IP:$IP/includes:$IP/languages" ); require_once( "includes/DefaultSettings.php" ); [...] $wgScriptPath = "/wiki";

but when accessing it as "www.mediaanthropology.net/wiki," which I would prefer, I see only the unformatted output of the index page.

First, there's a lot of blank space at the top of the output. This usually means there are blank lines at the beginning or end of LocalSettings.php or some other file you have edited. You need to remove this, as it can interfere with functioning of the wiki.

Second, either your $wgScriptPath or the settings based on it seem to be set to "/mediaanthropology/wiki". This means that all links are broken at www.mediaanthropology.net, including links, redirects, and the style sheets. You need to set it to a correct path.

When editing LocalSettings.php, make sure there are no blank lines at the top or bottom of the file, and that you make set $wg* variables only *after* including DefaultSettings.php.
