I am attempting to install MW using SQLite (3.4.2). I am using r71491. After filling in the appropriate information, the installation falls over with the error: A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was: INSERT INTO interwiki(iw_prefix,iw_url,iw_local) VALUES ('acronym','http://www.acronymfinder.com/af-query.asp?String=exact&Acronym=$1',0) from within function "". Database returned error "19: interwiki.iw_api may not be NULL". Originally it complained because I did not supply a data directory. So I created one (/var/data/sqlite_data/), changed its ownership to www-data (apache2 on Ubunutu) and supplied the path in the appropriate place. This pushed the install past that error, but then it threw the error given above.
Old installer or new?
I assume new: $ svn info Installer.php Path: Installer.php Name: Installer.php URL: http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/config/Installer.php Repository Root: http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki Repository UUID: dd0e9695-b195-4be7-bd10-2dea1a65a6b6 Revision: 71491 Node Kind: file Schedule: normal Last Changed Author: platonides Last Changed Rev: 71401 Last Changed Date: 2010-08-21 07:34:16 -0700 (Sat, 21 Aug 2010) Text Last Updated: 2010-08-23 10:02:38 -0700 (Mon, 23 Aug 2010) Checksum: 78979ee1f9f89a0fb460770d045a3be7
No that's the old installer. If it can't be replicated in the new installer in trunk then not going to bother fixing this. Will mark INVALID once old installer get svn del'd.
I svn up'd. The information for Installer.php is now: $svn info Installer.php Path: Installer.php Name: Installer.php URL: http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/config/Installer.php Repository Root: http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki Repository UUID: dd0e9695-b195-4be7-bd10-2dea1a65a6b6 Revision: 71688 Node Kind: file Schedule: normal Last Changed Author: platonides Last Changed Rev: 71401 Last Changed Date: 2010-08-21 07:34:16 -0700 (Sat, 21 Aug 2010) Text Last Updated: 2010-08-23 10:02:38 -0700 (Mon, 23 Aug 2010) Checksum: 78979ee1f9f89a0fb460770d045a3be7 The same problem occurs on installation. I include here more contextual information: Environment checked. You can install MediaWiki. Generating configuration file...

The new installer is at config/new-index.php. Installer.php is the old installer.

Meh, fixed in r71704.
