Although it hasn't been thoroughly tested, it
may be possible to use
MediaWiki in PHP5 by disabling PHPTAL. This means you won't be able
to use the new monobook skin, or any other PHPTAL skin. Add the
following line to LocalSettings.php:
$wgUsePHPTal = false;
As of current CVS, this mode will automatically be used when PHP 5.0
or higher is detected for hassle-free installation.
As far as I know everything _else_ should work on PHP5, just the
PHPTal templates don't (yet). This is an annoyance, but PHP 5.0.0 was
only very recently released and isn't in general circulation yet, so
it shouldn't hit most people.
Hi,
thanks for the hint. After deactivating PHPTal everything is back to
normal apart from the skin, but this is kinda logical.
I install MediaWiki under PHP 4.x, so I guess that's why PHPTal was not
disabled. :-)
bye
