Hello,
I installed MediaWiki 1.5.2 with no apparent error, but when I try to connect by following the link from the installation page, I get this:
ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
While trying to retrieve the URL:
http://build.chq.ei/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page
The following error was encountered:
Connection Failed The system returned:
(146) Connection refused The remote host or network may be down. Please try the request again.

Here is the ouput from the mediawiki installation
MediaWiki 1.5.2 installation Please include all of the lines below when reporting installation problems.
Checking environment... PHP 4.4.1: ok PHP server API is apache; ok, using pretty URLs (index.php/Page_Title) Have XML / Latin1-UTF-8 conversion support. PHP is configured with no memory_limit. Have zlib support; enabling output compression. Neither Turck MMCache nor eAccelerator are installed, can't use object caching functions GNU diff3 not found. Found GD graphics library built-in, image thumbnailing will be enabled if you enable uploads. Installation directory: /opt/mediawiki-1.5.2 Script URI path: /mediawiki PHP is linked with old MySQL client libraries. If you are using a MySQL 4.1 server and have problems connecting to the database, see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/old-client.html for help. Trying to connect to MySQL on localhost as root... Connected as root (automatic) Connected to 3.23.53 Created database wikidb Creating tables... using MySQL 3/4 table defs... done. Initializing data... Granting user permissions... Created sysop account WikiSysop. Initialising "MediaWiki" namespace... Clearing message cache...Done. Creating LocalSettings.php...
Installation successful! Move the config/LocalSettings.php file into the parent directory, then follow this link to your wiki.
I moved LocalSettings.php up one level to the root of the mediawiki installation and deleted the config directory. I've tried typing in different urls, with no luck. One suggestion I found when googling was to use this url:
http://build.chq.ei/mediawiki/index.php?title=Main_Page
but that didn't work either. Can anyone suggest how to fix this?
Thanks.

Really? I can't even get that much; the domain doesn't seem to be in DNS. http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/lookup.ch?name=build.chq.ei&type=ALL

You did receive an error during installation, only you didn't act upon it. It's a common one, too. Re-read the output from MediaWiki.
You need to set the password for the user you set up for MW's use using the old mySQL authentication hashing.
