Session.name

MediaWiki version:

1.5

or older

When hosting multiple 1.5 installations on the same domain name, there are issues with cookies. The solution is simple.

Below this line:

$wgSitename         = "Your Wiki Name";

add the line:

ini_set("session.name", "{$wgSitename}Session");

So that it looks like:

$wgSitename         = "Your Wiki Name";
ini_set("session.name", "{$wgSitename}Session");

$wgCookiePath provides an alternate solution.

MediaWiki version:

1.6

or newer

This workaround is not necessary for version 1.6 [1] and greater.
