OK, let me see if I can explain my problem While I was installing MediaWiki I got the message "PHP server API is cgi: use ugly url" The rest of the installation went fine When I tried to log into the wiki using /index.php I received "Internal Server Error" After searching around I chanced upon a suggestions saying to try using "/index.php?title=Main_Page" I tried this and everything came up working fine. I started exploring and messing around with the different pages to make sure all the links clicked to a properly operating page. All good. I finally tried my hand at editing my Main_Page. As soon as I saved the edit I got "Internal Server Error". I clicked back and tried editing my Help:Contents page to see if the problem would duplicate. Before the edit it worked fine, after the edit "Internal Server Error". I didn't want to mess around anymore before I asked for some help. If you would like to check it out, you can find an operational page at http://www.deadzed.com/pe/wiki/index.php?title=Phoenix_Elite_Wiki:Community_Portal Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
Before continuing you should: 1) Check the error_log for messages. 2) Upgrade PHP; 4.2.3 is three years out of date and may simply not work. 3) Upgrade MediaWiki to 1.5.0 release.
Thanks, that did it. Version 4.2.3 did not work, so I had my webhost upgrade me to PHP 5.
