I receive the below error after installation of wiki version 1.22.4

Fatal error: Call to a member function checkTitleEncoding() on a non-object in C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\wiki\includes\db\DatabaseOracle.php on line 1158

In Apache error.log this message shows up

[Wed Mar 19 13:27:09 2014] [warn] [client 10.105.140.107] mod_fcgid: stderr: PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function checkTitleEncoding() on a non-object in C:\\Program Files\\Apache Software Foundation\\Apache2.2\\htdocs\\wiki\\includes\\db\\DatabaseOracle.php on line 1158

PHP Version 5.4.26 Apache Version 2.2.21 mod_fcgid Version 2.3.6

Any idea where to search?

What do you have set $wgLanguageCode to? (look in LocalSettings.php)

1. Site language code, should be one of the list in ./languages/Names.php

$wgLanguageCode = "da";

When I change value to $wgLanguageCode = "da"; I receive the following error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function checkTitleEncoding() on a non-object in C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\mediawiki\includes\db\DatabaseOracle.php on line 1158

When I change value to $wgLanguageCode = "en"; I receive the following error:

Warning: strpos() expects parameter 1 to be string, object given in C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\mediawiki\includes\db\DatabaseOracle.php on line 1146

Just to information. All wiki tables has been created successfully and I am able to connect to the database and make simple requests as below:

<?php

$c = oci_connect("user", "password", "scan1/devdwh");
$s = oci_parse($c, "select table_name from all_tables where owner = 'WIKI'");
$r = oci_execute($s);

echo "<table border='1'>\n";
$ncols = oci_num_fields($s);
echo "<tr>\n";
for ($i = 1; $i <= $ncols; ++$i) {
	$colname = oci_field_name($s, $i);
	echo "  <th><b>".htmlentities($colname, ENT_QUOTES)."</b></th>\n";
}
echo "</tr>\n";

while (($row = oci_fetch_array($s, OCI_ASSOC+OCI_RETURN_NULLS)) != false) {
	echo "<tr>\n";
	foreach ($row as $item) {
		echo "  <td>".($item!==null?htmlentities($item, ENT_QUOTES):"&nbsp;")."</td>\n";
	}
	echo "</tr>\n";
}
echo "</table>\n";

?>

But I am not able to launch the created wiki site without have the above mentioned errors / warnings.

go to the maintenance folder and run php eval.php

Paste this line and press enter:

var_dump( $wgContLang );

And the same with this:

var_dump( Language::factory( 'da' ) );

Paste the results here.

I'd also try to install again from scratch, downloading the tarball again, unpacking, drop the database and create it again from the installer.

Install log from another attempt.

Unfortunately this is not possible in our windows environment. When I run the php eval.php script from IE it returns the following message:

This script must be run from the command line

I have tried to drop all objects from the Oracle schema owner and made a completely new install. Now it returns the following errormessage:

A database query error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software.

I have also tried to install the same version 1.22.4 on a Unix environment but on a MariaDB instead of Oracle databsen with success.

But in our case it is not an option. I must run on a Oracle database.

Maintenance scripts must be run from command line, as the error message says, and not from the browser.

The error about CREATE SEQUENCE suggests that you haven't deleted the old database/schema

This is the result from a total new install. The Oracle user has been dropped with cascade option and recreated.

I can't set up an environment with oracle, so if you don't receive any help from others, feel free to open a bug in bugzilla. See How to report a bug
