As the title say, I just installed mediawiki 1.21.2 on a remotely hosted
VPS server. I got everything set up using the putty software, and the
remote server is a Debian 'squeeze' system, where I do have 'root' level
access & can install what ever i need. First rattle out of the bag the
mediawiki fired up in my browser and asked for me to complete the
installation, as I expected. However when I clicked on the link to
'complete the installation' nothing happened. I tried a chown -R to
www-data for the entire wiki, but that made no difference. a test of
php5 shows all OK as well as does the apache server it's running on.
This is my first ever attempt to manage a wiki remotely, so any tips are
appreciated. I just don't have a clue why this did'nt work.
Thanks
John
