[Mediawiki-l] Installation - Warning: $wgProxyKey is insecure

[dbw at ozreef.org]

Sorry if there is not the correct location to post this.  If not, could someone
let me know where is the more approriate list/board etc.  Thank you.

"Warning: $wgProxyKey is insecure Can't find a writable temp directory for the
XHTML template. Check that the TMP environment variable points to a writable
directory, or that the default temp dir (/tmp) exists and is writable."

That is the error that I am getting in attempting to install MediaWiki.

>From here:
http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2004-August/024401.html it was
mentioned that it was something to do with the tmp-directory on the virtual
hosting machine.  I asked my provider to look into that and they tried a couple
of things but it still didn't work.

Is that actually the issue?  The manner in which the virtual hosting machine is
configured in respect to the tmp directory?

Any insight or assistance would be greatly accepted.
