I run on Redhat 9.0 with Apache 2.x, PHP 4.2.2 (old I know).
The problem is with the sample LocalSettings.sample (cp to LocalSettings.php) I believe. I have the following in my LocalSettings.php file:
$wgSitename = "Synergypedia"; $wgMetaNamespace = FALSE; # will be same as you set $wgSitename
$wgServer = "http://sledge"; $wgScriptPath = "/synergypedia"; $wgArticlePath = "{$wgScript}?title=$1"; $wgEmergencyContact = "tsanders@synergymicro.com";
However, when I access some of the links on the Main Page (via http://sledge/synergypedia/wiki.phtml), the links contain /wiki instead of /synergypedia. I seems that the php vars in DefaultSettings.php are not getting set appropriately based on the settings in the LocalSettings.phph file. Do I need to copy the entire block of corresponding links from the DefaultSettings.php file to override all of them? I don't know the variable substituion rules for php. If I copy the block of vars it works.
$wgSitename = "Synergypedia"; $wgMetaNamespace = FALSE; # will be same as you set $wgSitename
#$wgServer = "http://sledge" . getenv( "SERVER_NAME" ); $wgServer = "http://sledge"; $wgScriptPath = "/synergypedia"; $wgScript = "{$wgScriptPath}/wiki.phtml"; $wgRedirectScript = "{$wgScriptPath}/redirect.phtml"; $wgStyleSheetPath = "{$wgScriptPath}/style"; $wgStyleSheetDirectory = "{$IP}/style"; $wgArticlePath = "{$wgScript}?title=$1"; $wgUploadPath = "{$wgScriptPath}/upload"; $wgUploadDirector = "{$IP}/upload"; $wgLogo = "{$wgUploadPath}/jungle.png"; $wgMathPath = "{$wgUploadPath}/math"; $wgMathDirectory = "{$wgUploadDirectory}/math"; $wgTmpDirectory = "{$wgUploadDirectory}/tmp"; $wgPasswordSender = "Wikipedia Mail tsanders@synergymicro.com"; #$wgPasswordSender = "Wikipedia Mail apache@www.wikipedia.org\r\nReply-To: webmaster@www.wikipedia.org"; $wgEmergencyContact = "tsanders@synergymicro.com";
Next I am trying to use the RewriteRule in Apache. I have the following:
RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/synergypedia/(.*)$ /synergypedia/wiki.phtml?title=$1 [L]
So if I access http://sledge/synergypedia/Main_Page I get the Main Page, or http://sledge/synergypedia/New_Page I get the New Page (with the text that no content is present for the page). In any case all of the links on the pages (i.e. 'Edit this page') look like the following http://sledge/synergypedia/wiki.phtml?title=Main_Page&action=edit. Seems ok but when I click it I get
Wiki.phtml From Synergypedia, the free encyclopedia.
(There is currently no text in this page)
Thus it is trying to find a page titled wiki.phtml.
How do I get it to not try to create a page for wiki.phtml?
