This tasklet is done. "ls /iglu/Hosts/ | cat" now reads:
<<<
Python-IL
Welcome-to-Linux
common
wiki.perl.org.il
www.hackers.org.il
>>>
It's a bit inconsistent but to quote Larry Wall: "The problem with being
consistent is that there are lots of ways to be consistent, and they're all
inconsistent with each other."
In any case, transferring the wikis involved changing the LocalSettings.php
file of each MediaWiki. It has something like:
<<<
$IP = "/iglu/Hosts/www.hackers.org.il/wikis/MediaWiki/mediawiki";
ini_set( "include_path", ".:$IP:$IP/includes:$IP/languages" );
require_once( "DefaultSettings.php" );
>>>
This may be just what we need in order to set up a site-global MediaWiki
installation. I think I'll ask people on the IRC about it.
