Manual talk:Short URL/Page title -- Aliasing method--Root access

I think you need to update the version number in the athes given to the latest MediaWiki version (=From 8 to 11 at this date)

Other way
The method is the same, the directories could be different, ie I installed mediawiki (folder cidewiki) in my localhost within all my projects, so the directory for my wiki is /var/www/cidewiki. My LocalSettings.php file:

$wgScript = "/cidewiki"; $wgArticleScript = "/cidewiki/$1";

And the Apache 2 configuration file:

  Alias /cidewiki/skins /var/www/cidewiki/skins Alias /cidewiki/index.php /var/www/cidewiki/index.php Alias /cidewiki /var/www/cidewiki/index.php  Options -Indexes  

This is the way that worked for me, but it's because my server configuration and distribution of my projects.

All good but edit-links do not work properly
Hello, until now this is the best working method for me so far. All other ways i tried on my WAMP 2.0 did cause much more error. But i still have a problem: Editlinks do not work, because they do not point to:
 *  http://mywikiserver/News_Of_Today/March_2008?title=News_Of_Today/March_2008&action=edit 

but to
 *  http://mywikiserver/Main_Page?title=News_Of_Today/March_2008&action=edit ''.

This causes wiki to open the editfunction of Main_Page but not to create a new page called News_Of_Today/March_2008. How can i resolve this issue? i guess this requires only a little finetuning. thanks in advance kind regards TurboKanne, February, 8th 2008.
 * Now I added the following to LocalSettings.php:

$wgScriptPath      = ""; $wgScript          = ""; $wgArticlePath     = "$wgScript?title=$1";
 * 1) short urls


 * this fixes the above issue with the edit links. The URL in browser now shows something like: http://mywikiserver/?title=Main_Page . Everything works fine, but how can i finally remove the part ?title= Any clues?


 * thanks in advance
 * kind regards
