I use the MySQL installer package from dev.mysql.com -- try < http://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-5.6/mysql-5.6.10-osx10.7-x86_64.dmg/from/http://cdn.mysql.com/ > Double-click and run the installer; also double-click the preferences pane to install that, it makes it easy to start and stop the MySQL server. This will install the 'mysql' command into /usr/local/mysql/bin so you might need to add a line like this to your ~/.profile file: export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin Note that you may also need to adjust /etc/php.ini and add a line like: mysql.default_socket=/tmp/mysql.sock for the Apple-provided PHP to see MySQL properly. You may need to stop and restart the web server after adjusting php.ini. > > I think, PDFs are good and sufficient. > You'll want <http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PdfHandler> to support upload of PDFs; by default this will rasterize the PDFs for inline display, so you don't need a browser plugin. The extension depends on some external Unix programs as mentioned on that page, you should be able to install them through HomeBrew or MacPorts. -- brion _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
