BUG MIGRATED FROM SOURCEFORGE http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1005165&group_id=34373&atid=411192 Originally submitted by Matthias Stübner (mstuebner) 2004-08-07 17:30 After installing from tar.gz the installation runs fine, but when one tries to call the index.php of the installed Wiki it comes to: Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. ----------- The installation output was: MediaWiki 1.3.0beta6 installation Please include all of the lines below when reporting installation problems. Checking environment... * WARNING: PHP 4.3.2 or higher is recommended. Older versions from 4.1.x up may work but are not actively supported.

Move the LocalSettings.php file into the parent directory, then follow this link to your wiki. Any idea what may cause this? regards, Matthias (mstuebner@web.de) ------------------------- Additional comments ------------------------ Date: 2004-08-07 21:01 Sender: SF user vibber Can you check your Apache or PHP error log? Also try a direct page url such as index.php?title=SomePage or index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges to see if these behave differently.
I will take the liberty to set the severity back down to "normal", because this error does not seem to happen to many people. Myself, I have installed MediaWiki recently and I have not run into this problem. It is likely to be just a configuration problem on the user's server.
Probably a php configuration error. We can't fix it if user doesn't give us feedback anyway. To bug owner : try with lastest stable version and open a new bug if the trouble still happen.
