Thread:Project:Support desk/MediaWiki 1.21 internal error/reply

Hi!

I just wanted to write the following:

---

It may be that the other wikis are working properly, however on this domain you are using PHP 5.2.17, which is too old. I don't know how it is with 1&1, but usually you have a customer menu and there you should be able to change the PHP version used. Maybe you also have to add a line to the file called .htaccess, but if this is the case depends on how 1&1 have set up the server.

---

However, then I realized that when you call http://wiki.wantman.net/ you are redirected to http://wantman.net/w2/index.php5?title=Main_Page, which shows the error. When you however call http://wantman.net/w2/index.php?title=Main_Page (without the "5" in it), then you can see your wiki and then the page Special:Version also displays PHP 5.4. Also load.php5(!) is called instead of load.php, which is the reason why you do not see any styles when you call the index.php file.

I don't know how that can happen; first I would try to prevent the redirect to the php5 file. Use the php file instead. Maybe you have also made a setting in LocalSettings.php, which makes MediaWiki use the php5 files instead of the php files. This should then be changed as well.
