BUG MIGRATED FROM SOURCEFORGE http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=948139&group_id=34373&atid=411192 Originally submitted by Sean Proctor (sproctor)<a href="/help/icon_legend.php?context=user_wantsdonations&user_id=43755&return_to=%2F"><IMG src="http://images.sourceforge.net/images/icons/donate.png" alt="Accepting Donations" border="0" width="16" height="16"></a> 2004-05-05 03:26 My wiki is behind a proxy server. I have $wgServer set properly. the rest of the links follow that, but the links to change the messages on this page do not. they all include the port that the proxy server is sending on. I've tried to fix this myself, but InitialiseMessages.inc seems to be the file that affects this, but it doesn't seem to actually do anything. ------------------------- Additional comments ------------------------ Date: 2004-05-05 03:37 Sender: SF user vibber You can edit that page and do a global search-and-replace to the correct URL. (Also you can regenerate messages using maintenance/ rebuildMessages.php but currently this requires some adjustments to LocalSettings.php to run cleanly; make sure it can't be run from the web!) The problem is that the auto-detected $wgServer is put into those links when the page is generated at install time, so before you've had a chance to customize it. I'm changing the summary of this bug report to reflect that we should make this more flexible.

This bug causes FAQ issues, so really should get fixed for 1.4. The first step was adding enough {{}} variables to cover the relevant stuff instead of interpolating PHP variables in the string literals, but they're still being substituted at MediaWiki:-namespace initialization time.
I ran into the same problem under 1.4 shortly: in Languages.php I needed to use {{SERVER}} in a message text XYZ to generate MediaWiki:XYZ page. However: wfMsg('XYZ') and MediaWiki:XYZ did not show "http://myserver" but showed "http://localhost" as substitute. Solution as suggested by Brion (luckily enough, I found it by myself): If you need the server's name at installation or rebuildmessage.php time use {{{{SERVER}}}} . All other variables are not affected, thus normal variable quoting {{ ... }} appears to be sufficient. If this information doubles Brion's, then please delete it. I just wanted to confirm the findings and the ad-hoc solution.
Fixed in head and REL1_3 cvs.
