Thread:Project:Support desk/MediaWiki and Windows Server 2003...

Hi.

Yesterday I managed to install MediaWiki on Windows Server 2003 (ip 192.168.1.245) but there's still some problems. I have configured Apache so that VirtualHost is used for MediaWiki. Here's how I have cofigured it:

 DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/mediawiki/" ServerName siteMegaWiki.local DirectoryIndex index.php

 Order allow,deny Allow from all  

I have also put "Listen 3600" at the beginning of httpd.conf.

When I type "http://192.168.1.245:3600" in Google Chrome's address field Chrome says "Oops! The link appears to be broken".

When I type "localhost:3600/mediawiki" I can see MediaWiki's root folder and "localhost:3600/mediawiki/index.php" shows the main page of MediaWiki. This of course works only on the server (localhost).

Also when I just type "localhost:3600" Chrome opens a page that is in my Apache's htdocs folder for testing purposes. What's up with that?

Could someone tell me what am I doing wrong. I think the main idea is that I can open MediaWiki from any computer in the Windows Server 2003 network just by typing "http://192.168.1.245:3600" in the web explorer's address field.

Oh yeah, at one point I managed to open config/index.php (by putting it next to DirectoryIndex). At that point I tried index.php in MediaWiki's root but it didn't work so there something funny in it and does not work with VirtualHost - or with the way I have configured it. :)

Best regards,

Jari.
