CheckUser installation for MediaWiki 1.12
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

Description:
CheckUser is hard to install: I tried doing it via Phpshell for my XAMPP install which has a working copy of MediaWiki 1.12alpha - but couldn't get it to work.

I can't really just add it to extensions folder, with ExtensionFunctions.php and then it'll be installed (not forgetting $wgCheckUserLog directory).

Anyone know if CheckUser will be made easier to install, as [[:mw:Extension:CheckUser]] isn't easy to install for some people.

What do you mean "doesn't work"?

When I say it "doesn't work", I'm not sure how to get it working with phpShell.
and when it's installed:

It does not create a log in the log directory, and says "No matches found", even though they were.

This is what the log creates:

OK, this looks like a local configuration or "how do I use my database" sort of question. You should try php or mysql support networks for getting this info.
