1.pkg_add -r apache22 mysql51-server php5 php5-mysql
2. cd /usr/ports/lang/php5

During the make config step above, enable the "APACHE" option in the menu. <-Enable all option except DEBUG
Also install XMLReader and ctype extension for php.pkg_add -r php5-xmlreader php5-ctype
3.Edit MySql account
if mysqld did not start, start it.
then
mysqladmin -u root password yourpassword
4.Edit apache config
Make sure the following sections have been added to httpd.conf:
LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache/libphp5.so <-may differ...
<IfModule php5_module>
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

</IfModule>
Add the following Directory settings to your httpd.conf
<Directory "your_mediawiki_path"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks DirectoryIndex index.php index.html AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory>
And then,
restart your apache
5.
make mediawiki/mw-config writable
cd /usr/local/www chmod 777 mediawiki/config
Make sure all MediaWiki files belong to user www:
chown -R www mediawiki
Now open http://localhost/mediawiki/mw-config/index.php in your browser to start installation.
6. During Installation
Set Mysql User account/pw to root/yourpw
Make sure to include ParserFunction extension <- important
7. After Installation:
copy LocalSettings.php to your mediawiki root
8.Download wiktionary xml from wikipedia sites
I use enwiktionary-20121104-pages-articles.xml.bz2
9. unzip the bz2 file
---------------------------------------IMPORTANT---------------------------------
run the gfdl-wikititle program to strip out illegal titles in XML dumps provided by foundation:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Gfdl-wikititle
(This program should be run on windows or linux.)
If you did not do this step, then the "NULL title exception" will cause importDump.php to freeze.
Especially on large XML dumps such as enwiki...
reference:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Data_dumps#importDump.php
The authur of gfdl-wikititle complain about importDump.php and mwDumper
10. go to mediawiki/maintainence/
php importDump.php your_path_to_enwiktionary_xml
11.See the following messages:
The 200 or 300 means numbers of pages it have processed.
Please wait for a long time.
12.Using DumpHtml.php~
FreeBSD Related problems (For Beginners)
Problems encountered:
1.su: Sorry
How to resolve:
users must be in wheel group to use su
so add user to wheel group
new user:
pw adduser <username> -G wheel
passwd <passwd>
existing user:
pw usermod <username> -G wheel
2.pkg_add -r gnome2
failed at first
pkg_add again-> success
3.startx : no command
pkg_add -r xorg
failed first time, sucess on second try
4.Network problem:
in VM use NAT(addition to)
in FreeBSD
vi /etc/rc.conf
add
ifconfig_<device name>="DHCP"
My <device name> is em0.
5. dns setup
ref0
ref1
vi /etc/resolv.conf
search xxx.com
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4
6. scroll lock
or plug a windows keyboard to your laptop
7.switch between tty and gnome
CTRL ALT +F1~F7 tty F9 GNOME
8.FTP PASSIVE MODE:
When logging into gnome with root
the terminal's environment will be cleaned.
Thus ftp passive mode is not set,
resulting the pkg_add -r fail...
So,
sudo FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=1 pkg_add -r somepackage
or using tty to pkg_add
