Description

(Imported from help.mit.edu #419862.)

geofft:

It appears to me that you left the Title field blank in the setup process. (This is the last question, after it finishes uncompressing the installation.) This confused the auto-installer, leaving it in a half-installed state. (The "You have to set the wiki up first!" page should not show up if the auto-installers complete.)

  • Component changed from web to autoinstallers

What we really should do is port them from Perl to Python.

The proximate cause of this ticket (the MediaWiki? autoinstaller doesn't clearly report failure when the title is blank) is no longer applicable, due to the move to Wizard.

  • Resolution set to invalid
  • Status changed from new to closed

Fundamentally, this ticket is not really actionable.
