Hey Guys, Is there a 64 bit version of Mediawiki? I'm trying to install it using php5.5-x64, oracle 10gR2 (instantclient x64-11.2) and apache 2.4.4-win 64 but am getting errors when mediawiki tries to connect to DB. I'm not getting much info on the error beside: Faulting application name: httpd.exe, version: 2.4.4.0, time stamp: 0x5127dda0 Faulting module name: OraOCIEI11.dll, version: 11.2.0.1, time stamp: 0x4eb21384 Exception code: 0xc0000005 It feels like mediawiki is trying to access a 32bit version of the OraOCIEI11.dll... So has Mediawiki been compiled with 64 bits before? Thanks.
MediaWiki should work just fine on 64-bit (and we do it on WMF).
Much more likely is problems with PHP 5.5 and/or the Oracle client for 64-bit. We've got known problems with 5.5 & MySQL (unrelated to your problem), so using 5.3 or 5.4 might be a better route for now.
