Description:
The installer loops on trying pointing the user to the config
page. Ie on first access, it points at eg
localhost/mediawiki/index.php/config/index.php which then
points to /mediawiki/index.php/config/config/index.php, ...

It's trivial for the user to strip the annoying index.php
part but it's still annoying for the user.

I suspect this bug doesn't happen on site where "index.php/"
doesn't appear in URLs.

Version: 1.7.x
Severity: normal
OS: Linux
Platform: Other

this simple patch fixes the looping

It may be wrong for sites where "/index.php/" is not a substring of the URLs
(untested)

This looks as though it has already been fixed: please see lines 39-44 of
includes/templates/NoLocalSettings.php in the latest svn version.
