Extension talk:CentralAuth

= Installation issues =

Does anyone got this extension running in a prefixed environment? I try to setup CentralAuth using only one database with 3 different prefixes for 3 different MediaWiki installations. After creating the appropriate tables using central-auth.sql, including the CentralAuth.php in LocalSettings.php, I only get errors when trying to use Special:CentralAuth or when pointing to my settings.

Do I have to adjust some other settings first or is it just not useable yet?`--Marcus Stöhr 11:53, 29 March 2008 (UTC)


 * CentralAuth is currently running on Wikimedia sites (including Wikinews, Wikipedia, etc) for sysops, who are being used as guinea pigs. At the moment, we have 1,472 CentralAuth users. I think Wikia uses the same system, but am not in a position to check this at the moment. Kylu 13:45, 29 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I know. I've been following the postings on the mailinglist. But I'd like to test in my own environment. At the moment, I'm "sharing" users by using VIEWS over the user tables. But it's a pain in the a** if you are doing upgrades. --Marcus Stöhr 10:46, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
