Description Jan Eglinger 2005-08-02 02:48:46 UTC
I've installed MediaWiki 1.5beta4 on PHP 4.3.10 (cgi).

Setting the reading permissions through $wgWhitelistRead in LocalSettings.php
seems not to accept special characters:

not working:
"My_Namespace:Page", "My Namespace:Über uns", "My Namespace:%C3%9Cber uns"

working:
"My Namespace:Page", "My Namespace:Uber uns"

How do I have to encode special characters in $wgWhitelistRead in order to get
this working?
Comment 1 Brion Vibber 2005-08-02 09:43:27 UTC
You need to save the file in UTF-8 encoding.

(Be sure not to include a BOM character on the file, which some buggy editors will add by default. This 
can cause failures in some HTTP or XML output modes.)
