Hello Everybody,
I have tried in vain searching around but haven't found a solution for my problem. Hence my post here.
I am attempting to use the url found below to make my wiki(located on an intranet) a)look pretty b)make sphyder my indexing tool work better. I use the method outlined in section 1.1
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Make_non-ugly_URLs
I am running on solaris 2.8, apache 2.0.55 and php 4.4.0 & mysql 5.0.15. I have a stock install of mediawiki(1.5.7). I have no major changes to the mediawiki instance that I am able to recall.
I made the changes to LocalSettings.php and http.conf and restarted the web server. This is where I run into these weird problems. I further emptied the cache in all my browsers(Opera, Firefox & IE), and further truncated the objectcache table.
1. The skin changes. I prefer the monobook default skin, but after the change outlined above I get the really simple skin version of the wiki. No amount of changing user preferences seem to help. 2. The user settings totally go out of wack. I am unable to either login if I am not logged in, nor am I able to log out if I am logged out into the wiki.
I have tried in vain to diagnose the issues, but to no avail. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Further is there any where I can take a peek at LocalSettings.php and httpd.conf for a similar setup from any of the popular mediawiki based web sites(or even wikipedia.org or mediawiki.org) and see the differences vis a vis my site.
