I can't install Mediawiki 1.4.15. I've installed: a) apache 2.0.55-r1 b) dev-lang/php 5.1.2 (current flags in /etc/portage/package.use: dba gd -gd-external pcre mysql mysqli session) c) mysql 4.1.14-r1
I got the error "Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes" when creating the categorylinks table, so I've esecuted "ALTER DATABASE wikidb DEFAULT CHARACTER SET latin1 COLLATE latin1_general_ci". Then I got the error "Sorry! The wiki is experiencing some technical difficulties, and cannot contact the database server". As far I can understand, this happens because of the new password algorithm in mysql 4.1+, so I've remerged dev-lang/php with the "mysqli" flag, but I still get the same error. Does anybody know how to get mediawiki installed? Thanks Sergio -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
