MediaWiki upgrade failing with "LocalisationCache.php" and "Language.php" errors

 * MediaWiki version: 1.16 beta
 * PHP version: 5.3.0
 * MySQL version: 5.1.37
 * URL: None, on an internal XAMPP/Windows 2003 Server installation.

I'm trying to upgrade from 1.15 MediaWiki. Install goes fine, and http://ms-tux/wiki/config/index.php comes up as expected at the end. Main_page, however, has the following three errors:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach in C:\xampp\htdocs\wiki\includes\LocalisationCache.php on line 326

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach in C:\xampp\htdocs\wiki\includes\LocalisationCache.php on line 377

Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in C:\xampp\htdocs\wiki\languages\Language.php on line 248

Thanks! —137.191.224.102 17:17, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

PHP T_NAMESPACE error at installation

 * MediaWiki version: 1.11.2-12.1
 * PHP version: 5.3.2
 * MySQL version: 5.1.36-6.8.8
 * URL: http://node36.susestudio.com:16080/mediawiki/config/index.php5

Hi,

At installation time, I get

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_NAMESPACE, expecting T_STRING in /srv/www/htdocs/mediawiki/includes/Namespace.php on line 44

According to FAQs, this is due to old (<5.3) PHP, but I'm running 5.3.2

Thanks, J.

 * Older versions of MediaWiki don't support PHP 5.3. Because they are also out of support and lack numerous security fixes, you are encouraged to update to 1.15.4 ASAP. Max Semenik 05:54, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
