Problem installing the MediaWiki 1.3.0beta2 *update*
Update.

It seems the script was being choked because I already had a table named
'archive.' I corrected this, and the following repeadly occurs.

I fill out the form in /config... with the following result.


Checking environment...

* PHP 4.3.6 ok
* PHP server API is cgi; using ugly URLs (index.php?title=Page_Title)
* Have zlib support; enabling output compression.
* Found GD graphics library built-in, image thumbnailing will be
enabled if you enable uploads.
* Installation directory: /homepages/22/d94944393/htdocs/yeago.net/wiki
* Script URI path: /wiki

At this point the browser stops loading. Nothing else prints. Although
the tables in the db are created, the config file is still not created.

So I decided to go ahead and create a LocalSettings.php on my own. The
results are enigmatic.

http://yeago.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page produces a 404. I am guessing
this is because url rewriting is not configured.

http://yeago.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page gives me a variant of
what I would expect. Check it out for yourself--its really weird, in
Mozilla at least. At the very least, this reduces my problem to an html
nightmare. I suspect having the config script create my
LocalSettings.php would undo a lot of this mess.
