hi,
i am having difficulties getting the math package working and i think i am
stuck at one point and could really use some help..
some background information:
---
mediawiki version: 1.6.8
php 4.4.4 on apache 1.3.37 (User/Group nobody(99)/99)
gs 7.07
TeX (Web2C 7.4.5) 3.14159
dvips(k) 5.92b
ImageMagick 6.2.9 09/07/06 Q16
---
[~/public_html/w/images]# ls -al
drwxrwxrwx 2 w w 4096 Sep 15 07:55 math/
drwxrwxrwx 2 w w 4096 Sep 15 08:04 tmp/
---
$wgUseTeX = true;
$wgMathPath = "{$wgUploadPath}/math";
$wgMathDirectory = "{$wgUploadDirectory}/math";
$wgTmpDirectory = "{$wgUploadDirectory}/tmp";
---
all the necessary packages are installed, all the permissions are set, but
whenever i try to generate a math equation on the wiki, i get this error
message saying "Failed to parse (Can't write to or create math output
directory)"
the 'math' and the 'tmp' directories under the images path are
chmod'ed to
777, so i really don't understand what is wrong. i didn't touch
'$wgUploadDirectory' so according to the articles i read at the mediawiki
site, the default directory is 'images'
getting stuck at a permission problem is really nerve-wrecking so i would
really appreciate any help :)
regards
w.
