Database requirement
Can I use Microsoft SQL server 2000? --3 February 2008


 * Similar question: Are there plans to support SQL Server 2005 or later? I already have a SQL Server on my web server and would not like to add another. --17 March 2008

SQLite?
The Download page states that SQLite is an acceptable choice for fulfilling the MW database requirement. However, this page makes no mention of it. Could the minimum version number of SQLite be added to this requirements page? --Lance E Sloan 14:28, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Apparently MediaWiki doesn't yet support php 5.3.0 according to this post. Is that true? And if so, it probably needs to be documented on the System Requirements page. --ReallySeth 19:25, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Where is MySQL Database Driver?

PHP 5.2.9
Misleading system requirements as PHP 5.2.8 default installation does not seem to work= Your system has a combination of PHP and libxml2 versions which is buggy and can cause hidden data corruption in MediaWiki and other web apps. Upgrade to PHP 5.2.9 or later and libxml2 2.7.3 or later! ABORTING (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=45996 for details).
