Hi,
Let me put in another way:
I am up to lunch my English version of my site. How should I do that?
I was thinking in creating 2 different wikis within 2 diferent folders, and with 2
diferent databases:
www.my_site.info ==> folder my_site.info ==> Database
www.en.my_site.info ==> folder en.my_site.info ==> Database_en
And, after that, what I should do to link each page to its correspondent translation?
Thanks a lot, mauro.

|Thanks Zarrabeitia,
|
|So, if I understand this configuration allows us to use one folder with two different
databases
|according to the url the user enter,
|right? My question is:
|
|1) What is the advantage for this configuration?
|2) What configuration the wikipedia uses for the different address it has?
|
|I am up to lunch my English version of my site, so I was wondering what would be the most
appropriate
|approach. I was thinking in
|this:
|
|www.my_site.info ==> Database ==>site.info folder
|www.en.my_site.info ==> Database_en ==>em.site.info folder
|
|Thanks a lot, mauro.

||
||
||I hope you are not referring to my message "Mediawiki as a CMS." (I mean,
what
||I did there was a hack, and though it worked for my (en|es).wikipedia mirror,
||I wouldn't exactly recommend it).
||
||Still, if you are referring to my hack, here it is:
||
||I installed a mediawiki in, for instance,
||/var/www/sites/wiki
||and pointed the en.wikipedia and the es.wikipedia virtualhosts to that folder.
||
||On my localsettings.php,
||
||==============
||if ($_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]=="es.wikipedia.uh.cu")
||{
|| $db_lang="es";
||}
||if ($_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]=="en.wikipedia.uh.cu")
||{
|| $db_lang="en";
||}
||
||$wgDBserver = "10.6.121.29";
||$wgDBname = "wiki";
||$wgDBuser = "wikipedia";
||$wgDBpassword = "wikipedia";
||$wgDBprefix = $db_lang;
||$wgDBtype = "mysql";
||$wgDBport = "5432";
||
||(...)
||$wgLanguageCode = $db_lang;
||================
||
||And that seems to work. (the ifs and the $db_lang variable were added by me).
||There are some problems with the maintenance scripts in this setup (they
||obviously don't define the _SERVER variable so they don't load the
||configuration properly so I have to work around that)
||
||But given my 0 expertise with mediawiki, I'm sure there is a better way to do
||it :D
||
||Cheers,
||
||Zarrabeitia.
