Description Thierry Vignaud 2006-07-29 15:57:18 UTC 
The installer loops on trying pointing the user to the config 
page. Ie on first access, it points at eg 
localhost/mediawiki/index.php/config/index.php which then 
points to /mediawiki/index.php/config/config/index.php, ...

It's trivial for the user to strip the annoying index.php 
part but it's still annoying for the user.

I suspect this bug doesn't happen on site where "index.php/" 
doesn't appear in URLs.

this simple patch fixes the looping

It may be wrong for sites where "/index.php/" is not a substring of the URLs
(untested)
Comment 2 Thierry Vignaud 2006-07-29 16:10:23 UTC 
ie for sites using http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Rewrite_Rules
Comment 3 Greg Sabino Mullane 2006-07-30 01:54:04 UTC 
This looks as though it has already been fixed: please see lines 39-44 of
includes/templates/NoLocalSettings.php in the latest svn version.
