mv mediawiki-1.27.0.tar.gz /var/www/html/
Extract the File
Extract the tar file and rename it with your wiki name, as example named with wikipedia.
tar xvzf mediawiki-1.27.0.tar.gz
mv /var/www/html/mediawiki-1.27.0 /var/www/html/wikipedia
Run the MediaWiki Installation
Open MediaWiki index.php page at http://[web_server_address]/wikipedia/index.php and follow the installation requirement there.
Troubleshooting
Problem 1 : LocalSettings.php File Not Readable
Solution : run restorecon command into the wikipedia website folder.
[root@qemu01 ~]# restorecon -r /var/www/html/wikipedia/
Problem 2 : First Login Error (Session Hijacking Protection)
Solution : Change $wgMainCacheType from CACHE_ACCEL to CACHE_ANYTHING as suggested in LocalSettings.php file.
[root@qemu01 ~]# cd /var/www/html/wikipedia [root@qemu01 wikipedia]# vi LocalSettings.php
Change $wgMainCacheType = CACHE_ACCEL into $wgMainCacheType = CACHE_ANYTHING.
Problem 3 : Upload File Error (LocalFileLockError)
Solution : Run $ sudo setenforce 0 and try again.
