Aas I said, nothing happened. Th screen stayed exactly the same. I
looked at the page source & it was OK, the instructions in the link were
good, it said to go to the correct page and open the index.php file
in /mw-config withing the mediawiki directory, just nothing happened. No
error messages, nada. Any ideas. I figure it is a permission thing but
have no idea how to fix it. take a look,the link to the page is
http://www.physicswiki.net
If it works for you, message me back please don't try to finish the
setup.

Nothing happened? Did your browser not change pages?
Did you get a blank
screen?

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
