Quercus: Mediawiki

Revision as of 00:51, 18 February 2008

Download Resin 3.1.5+

We suggest using the most recent release of Resin as several MediaWiki related bugs have been fixed recently.

Download MediaWiki 1.11.1 or newer

Download MediaWiki into $resin_home/webapps/ROOT/mediawiki.

Download MySQL JDBC Driver

Download MySQL Connector/J JDBC Driver version 3.1.14 or newer. Save the mysql-connector-java-3.1.14-bin.jar Jar file in $resin_home/lib.

Add resin-web.xml

Add the following resin-web.xml file to $resin_home/webapps/ROOT/mediawiki/WEB-INF. Customize email settings to allow the sending of emails from PHP. Anything not in bold is optional.

The resin-web.xml has the QuercusServlet mapped to *.php. Optionally, it has a <database> as PHP's database. Quercus can automatically create database pools if you omit the <database> configuration, but it's better to configure it explicitly.

<web-app xmlns="http://caucho.com/ns/resin">
  <database jndi-name='jdbc/mediawiki'>
    <driver type="com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlConnectionPoolDataSource">
      <url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mediawiki</url>
      <user></user>
      <password></password>
    </driver>
  </database>

  <servlet-mapping url-pattern="*.php"
                   servlet-class="com.caucho.quercus.servlet.QuercusServlet">
    <init>
      <database>jdbc/mediawiki</database>
      <compile>true</compile>
      <script-encoding>ISO-8859-1</script-encoding>
      <php-ini>
        <sendmail_from>foo@bar.com</sendmail_from>
      </php-ini>
    </init>
  </servlet-mapping>

  <welcome-file-list>index.php</welcome-file-list>
</web-app>

Finish

Run MediaWiki's installation. That's it!
