I have tried to override a potential lack of memory by extending the memory_limit in a php.info file, and even contacted the webmaster about this. But every time I try to to install MediaWiki 1.9.1, it creates the tables, but hangs at propagating the data. Here is the installation log: * PHP 5.0.5 installed * Found database drivers for: MySQL * PHP server API is cgi; using ugly URLs (index.php?title=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 ImageMagick: /usr/bin/convert; image thumbnailing will be enabled if you enable uploads. * Found GD graphics library built-in. * Installation directory: /home2/madcover/public_html/mediawiki-1.9.1 * Script URI path: /wiki * Environment checked. You can install MediaWiki. * Generating configuration file... * Database type: MySQL * Loading class: DatabaseMysql * Attempting to connect to database server as XXXXX...success. * Connected to 4.1.21-standard * Database XXXXX exists * Creating tables... using MySQL 4 table defs... done. * Initializing data... Please advise. Is there a patch available to fix this?
Yup - same issue here. I just tried it with 1.9.2 and I get the same results. Any ideas? More debug info would be helpful too. * PHP 5.1.4 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 cgi; using ugly URLs (index.php?title=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. * Found GNU diff3: /usr/bin/diff3. * Found ImageMagick: /usr/bin/convert; image thumbnailing will be enabled if you enable uploads. * Found GD graphics library built-in. * Installation directory: /home/torimoto/public_html/wiki * Script URI path: /wiki * Environment checked.

Please check the Apache and/or PHP error logs to establish what's stalling script execution at this point.
This was tried on a hosting account that has WHM and cPanel. Where/how can I check/view the Apache and/or PHP error logs? Let me know and I can check - thanks.
(In reply to comment #3) > This was tried on a hosting account that has WHM and cPanel. > Where/how can I check/view the Apache and/or PHP error logs? cPanel should have an option to view various logs. I suspect the problem here might be PHP running out of memory, however.
I checked with my hosting company, as well as through the cPanel myself, and I was told: "The php error logs are combined with apache logs. I checked them for any errors on your account and in the last two days there have been none, aside from the standard 404 errors web spiders generate when searching for robots.txt and favicon.ico . Hitting the memory limit in php would trigger an error but there is none, so it does not appear to be the problem." Any other debugging methods?
I had the same problem and still can't fix it...here is the error log from the server, I just took out the date and the IP for the space in here. here is the config page followed by the errors ===================================================================== PHP 5.2.0 installed Found database drivers for: MySQL PostgreSQL PHP server API is cgi-fcgi; using ugly URLs (index.php?title=Page_Title) Have XML / Latin1-UTF-8 conversion support.
