Sure,
I've just installed a new wiki (MediaWiki 1.8.1), downloaded from the
Sourceforge page.


    * PHP 5.0.4 installed
    * Found database drivers for: MySQL
    *
      Warning: PHP's register_globals option is enabled. Disable it if you can.
      MediaWiki will work, but your server is more exposed to PHP-based security
vulnerabilities.
    * PHP server API is apache2handler; ok, using pretty URLs (index.php/Page_Title)
    * Have XML / Latin1-UTF-8 conversion support.
    * PHP is configured with no memory_limit.
    * Have zlib support; enabling output compression.
    * Couldn't find Turck MMCache, eAccelerator or APC. Object caching functions
cannot be used.
    * GNU diff3 not found.
    * Found GD graphics library built-in, image thumbnailing will be enabled if
you enable uploads.
    * Installation directory: D:\www\xampp\htdocs\mediawiki-1.8.1
    * Script URI path: /mediawiki-1.8.1
    * Environment checked. You can install MediaWiki.
    * Warning: $wgSecretKey key is insecure, generated with mt_rand(). Consider
changing it manually.

      Generating configuration file...
    * Database type: MySQL

Did you modify LocalSettings.php after setup?

No, I can post the content here (w/out the db password, of course) if that will
help, but the file was created by the installer.

Yes - please post it here. It seems that all of your Namespaces are broken...

Don't post large files in comments please; attach them if necessary.

What we could use is the output of the phpinfo() function,
and the exact version of XAMPP you have installed.

Okay, I'm sorry.

phpinfo() -> http://gregg.mine.nu/phpinfo.php

I don't know the version of XAMPP, but it is quite old, the package includes
PHP: 5.0.4 (apache2handler) and MySQL: 4.1.12 

I can reproduce this with XAMPP 1.5.4 (the current download) on Windows XP SP 2.
Will investigate...

Okay, thanks. I don't know if that will help you somehow, but I have another
MediaWiki here, on the same machine, version 1.7.1 and everything is okay there.

Fixed on trunk in r16995 and on REL1_8 in r16997, will be in 1.8.2.
