I upgraded openSuse from 11.1/64 to 11.2/64 and after restoring my wikimedia software I noticed that it wasn't working due to a problem caused by this extension. After disabling it (with # in the settings file), wikimedia started again working. Adding the string "$wgShowExceptionDetails = true;" to localsettings.php, the message that appears is: ####Start#### Errore interno (internal error in english) Detected bug in an extension! Hook fnSelectCategoryOutputHook failed to return a value; should return true to continue hook processing or false to abort.

You should use a version Select Category that is compatible with your MediaWiki version.
I don't know if is a version problem. I used it for some time without any problem. My wikimedia is 1.15.1 and category cloud is 1.4 (2008-08-11). I only want to indicate this problem, but I'm not a programmer, so it could be my fault. In this case, I can only say sorry for the inconvenient. Bye
Make sure you're running the latest version, just to make sure
I think it is. The dates of the files are 11/08/2008 06:54 (It means 11 July for English), so I think it is the 1.4
We have same problems on our site. It surfaced on our upgrade to php-5.3.1, we did see the problem while on php-5.2.10, php-5.2.11, php-5.2.12. We were originally running 1.13.3 with SelectCategoryTagCloud (version 1.3). We upgraded to php-5.3.1 and say the problem. We downgraded php-5.2.12 and it started working again. Then we upgraded mediawiki to 1.15.1 SelectCategoryTagCloud (version 1.3) and php-5.3.1. Problem surfaced. Next we upgrade SelectCategoryTagCloud (version 1.4). Problem still exists. Also my installed OS is a bit different Solaris: amd64 Apache: 2.2.14 php: 5.3.1 mysql: 5.1.34sp1-enterprise-gpl-pro-log
I would like to update this. First sentence should read with "*not see" We have same problems on our site. It surfaced on our upgrade to php-5.3.1, we did not see the problem while on php-5.2.10, php-5.2.11, php-5.2.12.
I am also having the same issue. I run a few other products on the same machine so I don't want to backrev php. Does anyone have a work around?
For me it didn't work on a fresh installation of mediawiki the newest version.
Found some sort of a workaround (Don't know if it can be called a solution [it's up to the developers team] but it did the trick). What I did was: 1) open the body file. 2) go to all the hook functions and remove the & from the second parameter. 3) and it worked.
The extension is broken and unmaintained - keeping this bug open to please bugzilla.
