I can't provide you the url because i use it in an intranet of a company. I can
recreate this result by using the following settings of Localsettings.php:

1. This file was automatically generated by the MediaWiki installer.
2. If you make manual changes, please keep track in case you need to
3. recreate them later.

$IP = "E:\\htdocs\\test";
ini_set( "include_path", ".;$IP;$IP/includes;$IP/languages" );
require_once( "includes/DefaultSettings.php" );

1. If PHP's memory limit is very low, some operations may fail.
2. ini_set( 'memory_limit', '20M' );

if ( $wgCommandLineMode ) {
if ( isset( $_SERVER ) && array_key_exists( 'REQUEST_METHOD', $_SERVER ) ) {

		die( "This script must be run from the command line\n" );

}
} elseif ( empty( $wgNoOutputBuffer ) ) {

1. Compress output if the browser supports it

if( !ini_get( 'zlib.output_compression' ) ) @ob_start( 'ob_gzhandler' );
}

$wgSitename = "Test";

$wgScriptPath = "/test";
$wgScript = "$wgScriptPath/index.php";
$wgRedirectScript = "$wgScriptPath/redirect.php";

If using PHP as a CGI module, use the ugly URLs

$wgArticlePath = "$wgScript/$1";

$wgArticlePath = "$wgScript?title=$1";

$wgStylePath = "$wgScriptPath/skins";
$wgStyleDirectory = "$IP/skins";
$wgLogo = "$wgScriptPath/images/logo/logo_test.jpg";

$wgUploadPath = "$wgScriptPath/images";
$wgUploadDirectory = "$IP/images";

$wgEnableEmail = true;
$wgEnableUserEmail = false;

$wgEmergencyContact = "name@localhost";
$wgPasswordSender = "name@localhost";

1. For a detailed description of the following switches see
2. http://meta.wikimedia.org/Enotif and http://meta.wikimedia.org/Eauthent
3. There are many more options for fine tuning available see
4. /includes/DefaultSettings.php
5. UPO means: this is also a user preference option

$wgEnotifUserTalk = true; # UPO
$wgEnotifWatchlist = false; # UPO
$wgEmailAuthentication = false;

$wgDBserver = "localhost";
$wgDBname = "wikidb";
$wgDBuser = "PASSWORD";
$wgDBpassword = "PASSWORD";

1. To enable image uploads, make sure the 'images' directory
2. is writable, then uncomment this:

$wgEnableUploads = true;
$wgUseImageResize = true;
$wgUseImageMagick = true;
$wgImageMagickConvertCommand = "convert";

1. 1. If you want to use image uploads under safe mode,
   2. create the directories images/archive, images/thumb and
   3. images/temp, and make them all writable. Then uncomment
   4. this, if it's not already uncommented:
2. $wgHashedUploadDirectory = false;

1. 1. If you have the appropriate support software installed
   2. you can enable inline LaTeX equations:

$wgTmpDirectory = "{$wgUploadDirectory}/tmp";

$wgLocalInterwiki = $wgSitename;

$wgProxyKey = "KEY";

1. 1. Default skin: you can change the default skin. Use the internal symbolic
   2. names, ie 'standard', 'nostalgia', 'cologneblue', 'monobook':
2. $wgDefaultSkin = 'monobook';

I can't upgrade to 1.6.3, because some special functions don't work anymore
then, i.e. Special:Validate. :/

Can you please give me a hint where to change a code to get this password
function back online?
