Does anyone have suggestions?

I've installed MediaWiki for several SourceForge projects. One caveat is that you can't install the latest versions -- they require MySQL 5.x, which isn't provided by SF.

But version 1.6.10 works:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php? group_id=34373&package_id=93103&release_id=487918

I usually leave the wiki files in "w" and use an .htaccess file to rewrite "wiki" URLS:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Very_short_URL

If you want image uploading, there's another trick with /tmp/ persistent. Let me know if that's important. There might also be something else -- it's been a few months since I've done this.

One catch is that the SourceForge user names don't match the MediaWiki user names and this confuses some people.

Cheers,
-Geoff
