Thanks, Volker. Following the advice in the message "bad base url when mediawiki url declared on "localhost" (https://groups.google.com/group/mwlib/browse_frm/thread/2916cdf1bd247260/31b3e201a3c67752?hl=en_US&lnk=gst&q=localhost#31b3e201a3c67752)
* in LocalSettings.php , I have added $wgServer = "http://mediawikihost/";; (I also tried with "http://mediawikihost/w"; , because that's where the mediawiki sits ; which one should I use?) * in /etc/hosts, I added 127.0.0.1 mediawikihost * Having done /etc/init.d/apache2 restart , I loaded http://mediawikihost/w/index.php/Main_Page. It works as before, except that often a extra / or /w is added to the URL . When removed, it works again. * Then I tried to download my book as pdf . Unfortunately, it still does not work. * As you can see, I know almost nothing about Apache. Anyway, just to try my luck, I created the file /etc/apache2/sites-available/mediawiki with the statement "DocumentRoot /var/www/w/" in it, and enabled it. But it makes no any difference, it seems, because downloading my book as pdf still not works. * And mw-render -w rl -o test.pdf -c http://mediawikihost/w/ --collectionpage 'My Book' still gives "Unhandled Error" Grateful for more advice. - Mikael On Fri, Jun 17, 2011 at 11:19 AM, Volker Haas <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I believe the first search result should solve your problem: > > http://groups.google.com/group/mwlib/search?hl=en_US&group=mwlib&q=localhost&qt_g=Search+this+group > > Regards, > Volker > > On 06/16/2011 07:32 PM, mikaelbook wrote: >> >> Dear all, >> >> MediaWiki 1.16.x with the Collection Extension is beginning to work >> on Localhost.
