Manual:Installation requirements/it

Oltre al software stesso, un'installazione standard di MediaWiki necessita:


 * Un web server per inviare le pagine al browser.
 * PHP per far girare il software
 * Un database server per archiviare dati e pagine.

In aggiunta, ci sono varie dipendenze opzionali richieste se si vuole un certo livello di contenuto.

Se il tuo sito è sotto un host, contatta l'hosting per assicurarti che sia installato.

= == Simple one-download installation == =

Use XAMPP from http://www.apachefriends.org to install and configure all of the important packages – Apache web server, PHP, and MariaDB – with only one download. It is available for Linux, Windows, Mac and Solaris. As of August 2016, the latest version of XAMPP includes PHP 7.0 (MediaWiki requires at least ).

Alternatively, if you have an Apple computer, you can use MAMP, which is the equivalent to XAMPP. MAMP currently includes the ability to run the Apache web server and a MySQL database. It is available for both Windows and Mac, but is generally used on Mac instead of Windows. It is currently running the latest versions of php and MySQL.

= == Web server == =

Per passare le pagine al browser, MediaWiki necessita di un web server. Spesso, non hai possibilità di scelta, visto che devi usare quello del tuo hosting provider.

Most installations use the Apache web server, available at the official download page. However, MediaWiki has also been tested under IIS 7.0, Cherokee, Hiawatha, LiteSpeed, nginx (configuration example), and lighttpd.

= == PHP == =

PHP è il linguaggio di programmazione in cui è scritto MediaWiki ed è richiesto per far girare il software.

Nota che sebbene MediaWiki abbia uno script di installazione che provvede l'installazione di base, per configurazioni avanzate è richiesto un minimo di conoscenza del PHP.

In most Debian/Ubuntu-based distros, this is in the php5-intl package.
 * For the latest stable version of MediaWiki, PHP version or later is required.
 * If you are unable to upgrade to PHP, then you can use MediaWiki 1.23.13, which requires PHP version 5.3.2 or later
 * The following extensions are required:
 * Perl Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE) (v4.0+, MediaWiki 1.23 requires PCRE 7.2+ which may not be available in earlier PHP packages)
 * Session
 * Standard PHP Library
 * JSON (since 1.22)
 * mbstring (required since 1.27, recommended for earlier versions)
 * Note that all of these are enabled in PHP by default.
 * MediaWiki's installer will warn if you don't have the optional PHP intl extension "to handle Unicode normalization".
 * On most Debian/Ubuntu-based distros, either the php5-mysql or php5-mysqlnd package is required if you want MediaWiki to use MySQL.
 * If you are installing MediaWiki on CentOS 5.6, use the php53 package instead of php. The php package contains PHP 5.1.x, which is not compatible with the latest version of MediaWiki.
 * If you are installing MediaWiki on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4 (CentOS 6.4), you will need to install the php-xml package in addition to the normal php package.
 * Some features of MediaWiki may require PHP functions that execute external processes, like image thumbnailing, that some cheap hosts usually disable. This has surfaced specially in MediaWiki 1.23 on file uploads . Please take this into consideration if you plan to install MediaWiki on a shared host.
 * MediaWiki extensions may require additional PHP features, e.g. VisualEditor requires libcurl support (php5-curl on Debian/Ubuntu-based distros).

If you need to compile PHP from source, then see PHP configuration for compilation options that affect MediaWiki.


 * Some servers may also require the equivalent database module and session management module be installed. See individual operating system instructions for more information.
 * When installing on Windows using the Microsoft installer, add the extension for your database of choice (MySQL/MariaDB or Postgres) to the features to be installed.

= == Database server == =

MediaWiki archivia tutto il testo ed i dati in un database, che sia capace di condividere i dati con altre applicazioni web come PHPBB. Ti serve uno dei seguenti database per poter far girare MediaWiki:


 * MySQL 5.0.2 o successivo
 * PostgreSQL 8.1 o successivo (supportato da MediaWiki 1.8) Vedi Manual:Installing_MediaWiki/it per ulteriori dettagli.
 * 3
 * Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 or later is supported for LTS releases and is not guaranteed to work for non-LTS releases

Supported in the past, currently unsupported:


 * (unsupported on the latest MediaWiki versions due to open blocking bugs)

Some users find it helpful to install an additional software package such as phpMyAdmin (MySQL/MariaDB) or phpPgAdmin (Postgres) to help administer the database server.

MySQL 5 has been required since MediaWiki 1.19. MySQL 4 was required starting with MediaWiki 1.6. (If you are using an ancient version of MySQL and cannot upgrade then you need to use MediaWiki 1.5.8, but this version is not supported.)

= == Hardware richiesto == =

L'hardware minimo richiesto è di 256MB di RAM per il sito su un computer singolo con 40MB di storage, sebbene questo non sia possibile per un sito pubblico trafficato con l'upload abilitato. Alcuni utenti sono riusciti a far partire MediaWiki su computer con 48MB di RAM.

The install size can be reduced to around 50Mb for a developer install and to around 26Mb for a non-developer, end-user install. See Manual:Reduce size of the installation

= == Dipendenze opzionali == =

Other software

 * ImageMagick o GD sonorichiesti per le miniature.
 * TeX è richiesto per la visualizzazione di formule matematiche In most Debian/Ubuntu-based distros, this is in the texlive package.
 * Sendmail è richiesto per l'invio di mail
 * Shell access is required to run maintenance scripts; upgrading MediaWiki may be more difficult without it.

VisualEditor
The VisualEditor extension (and also the Flow extension) requires the Parsoid web service, which is implemented using Node.js. Node.js is not provided by most shared-hosting companies (HostGator, Bluehost, Dreamhost, etc.). For performance and security reasons, it is better to use a dedicated hosting solution such as a Virtual private server ("VPS").

Scribunto
If you want to invoke Lua modules (see those on this wiki) from wiki pages and templates, your wiki will also require Scribunto.
