Question:

In which directory do you have MediaWiki installed ? (LocalSettings.php, index.php, api.php, thumb.php etc.)

If the answer is " ", then that is the cause of the problem. When using the URL shortner the ArticlePath must not exist!

If you want to use /wiki/PageName as short url, install mediawiki in a directory that is not " ".).
