This error is occuring when I attempt to edit/create a page: A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was: (SQL query hidden) from within function "LinksUpdate::getExistingInterlangs". MySQL returned error "1146: Table 'chibipaws2.mw_langlinks' doesn't exist (chibipaws2.chibipaws.com)". I have recently upgraded and the database is updated to.
Most likely you didn't run the database updater. Can you confirm it ran successfully? Provide output from the script.
Wow, that was very fast. :) The update.php script returned this: [cupcake]$ ./wiki.chibipaws.com/maintenance/update.php X-Powered-By: PHP/4.4.2 Content-type: text/html <br /> <b>Parse error</b>: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in <b>/home/.goddard/chibipaws/wiki.chibipaws.com/includes/Exception.php</b> on line <b>114</b><br />
you have to use php5 with mediawiki 1.7
(In reply to comment #3) > you have to use php5 with mediawiki 1.7 I do. I have PHP5 with it, escept shell is on php 4.
then use php5 in shell ;-)
(In reply to comment #5) > then use php5 in shell ;-) Ugh, I can't. See, you know DreamHost? Well, I used the uprade feature to upgrade it, but it seems to have messed up the DB. I cannot edit the PHp used in shell. I am not the server owner.

proof you're not using php5: [cupcake]$ ./wiki.chibipaws.com/maintenance/update.php X-Powered-By: PHP/4.4.2
If your apache is php5 and you can't get the shell to be php5 then read http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Upgrading_to_1.7 and use the "Re-run the installer" method.
(In reply to comment #8) > proof you're not using php5: [cupcake]$ ./wiki.chibipaws.com/maintenance/update.phpX-Powered- By: PHP/4.4.2 Just so you know, I used the install script within the HTTP server. It told me I had PHP 5, and the version information says I have PHP5. I will attempt to run the update.php script within my broswer. I will post the results.
Unforutantly, I cannot run the update.php within my broswer, and I know why. But, that's not important. The fact is that I'm running PHP5, except shell is not PHP5, but it is PHP4. I RAN the install script as the Manual says before I posted this, and it still does not work.
Did you make sure to enter the proper table prefix when running the installer script? otherwise the installer wouldn't have found your old tables, made a duplicate installation, and when you put your old configuration back in it would have looked at the old unupgraded tables.

Aha, let me check that, one second.

Thanks. I've resolved my issue. :)
