Hi all,
I'm trying to install the source extension GeSHi extension (as suggested
by in a previous discussion) and this is the first time for me for
installing extensions. I've found out that things seem to be a bit
different for Debian and I haven't turned up any information yet through
Google.
The installation instructions were here:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi
and for example, I installed the php-geshi Debian package via apt-get,
and everything seems installed ok...but there is no file or directory
that resembles "SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi". There also doesn't seem to be
an "svn" program. However, there is a geshi.php and adding a
"require_once ('path/to/geshi.php');" to LocalSettings.php doesn't
seem
to be enough...or at least, that didn't work.
In /etc/mediawiki-extensions/extensions-available, I have geshi.php. I
added a symlink from /etc/media-extensions/extensions-enabled to it --
that doesn't seem to help...I'm still missing something.
Anyone have any ideas or know of the standard procedure of installing
extensions for MediaWiki. I looked at the top of geshi.php and noticed
this:
<?php
# Debian version of geshi syntax highlighting.
# You need the php-geshi package to make use of it...
makes me think that there is something Debian-specific to the
installation process...
Thank you!
