<this is a second attempt of an earlier attempt. please disregard if a duplicate>
I am attempting to implement external authentication using http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Otheus/Auto_Login_via_REMOTE_USER method. Which requires cut/paste/modify a file Auth_remoteuser.php and placing it into the mediawiki/extensions folder and inserting the following into localsettings.php:
require_once('extensions/Auth_remoteuser.php'); $wgAuth = new Auth_remoteuser();
The problem is that, after successful external SSO, the browser is redirected to the originally requested mediawiki url but halts with a dialog stating "Internet Explorer can not download http://intranetsite.com:12843/index.php?title=Main_Page from intranetsite.com. .."
The php error log states " PHP Fatal error: Class 'Auth_remoteuser' not found in C:\wiki\Mediawiki\mediawiki- 1.6.3\LocalSettings.php on line 141"
Any suggestions?
