The Section 1 text

sudo chown root:mwadmin LocalSettings.php
sudo chmod g+w LocalSettings.php
sudo chmod o+r LocalSettings.php

seems redundant as the creation by cp leaves these properly owned and privileged. This should be checked before changing. --BobMorris (talk) 00:59, 24 November 2014 (CET)


In the section "Mysql grant wikidb rights" why is it necessary to do this for every new wiki? --BobMorris (talk) 00:59, 24 November 2014 (CET)

New method, merge?

As more wikis are needed it would be nice to have a scriptable method to create new wiki instances. This page documents creating a wiki by hand in such a way that it would be feasable to automatize the steps in a script: User:Alvaro Ortiz-Troncoso/Draft Create a new mediawiki instance. Maybe merge that page and the present page? Alvaro Ortiz-Troncoso (talk) 10:03, 5 March 2015 (CET)
