Description Elke Stahl 2005-11-11 08:33:12 UTC 
After i followed the installation instructions given on
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilfe:MediaWiki-Installation i got an fatal error.

i suppose the system requirements are met.
 

Checking environment...

    * PHP 4.3.4: ok
    * PHP server API is apache2handler; ok, using pretty URLs (index.php/Page_Title)
    * Have XML / Latin1-UTF-8 conversion support.
    * PHP's memory_limit is 24M. If this is too low, installation may fail!
    * No zlib support.
    * Neither Turck MMCache nor eAccelerator are installed, can't use object
caching functions
    * Found GNU diff3: /usr/bin/diff3.
    * Found GD graphics library built-in, image thumbnailing will be enabled if
you enable uploads.
    * Installation directory: /srv/www/htdocs/wiki
    * Script URI path: /wiki

      Fatal error: Call to undefined function: session_name() in
/srv/www/htdocs/wiki/includes/Setup.php on line 123

what can i do to resolve the problem?

Your PHP is misconfigured. You are missing essential, required modules such as the 
session module.

Comment 3 Elke Stahl 2005-11-14 06:01:32 UTC
