Beaut, thanks (again) @james that was very helpful.

Installing Semantic MediaWiki via Composer

Hey @james and @joseph. Thank you for your quick replies! I'm going to try out this technique with LAMP first and report back, and if that doesn't work than I may try creating the SMW Cloudron App.

How does cloudron handle updates to extra, user installed extensions?

Thanks James and Shane.

Hello @da5nsy and welcome to the Cloudron Forum Glad to see you where already able to fix your problem.

Changing entry point URLs

james — Sun, 20 Jul 2025 00:30:29 GMT

Hello @mononym I have investigated this issue and found the following. According to my understanding after reading the documentation the LocalSettings.php should include the following: # Set the script path to root $wgScriptPath = ""; # Set the article path for pretty URLs $wgArticlePath = "/$1"; # If you're using a different entry point than index.php $wgScript = "/index.php"; # For resource loading $wgResourceBasePath = $wgScriptPath; Just for good measure I also cleared the Main Page cache with: php maintenance/run.php purgePage <<< "Main Page" But sadly, this did also not work. So the only thing now breaking it could be the apache2 config and there it is. By default (not editable) - https://git.cloudron.io/packages/mediawiki-app/-/blob/master/apache/mediawiki.conf?ref_type=heads: ServerName %{HTTP_HOST} DocumentRoot /app/code LogFormat "%{X-Forwarded-For}i %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" proxy CustomLog "|/bin/cat" proxy ErrorLog "|/bin/cat" # https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Security php_flag register_globals off ## http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Short_URL/Apache RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/?wiki(/.*)?$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/index.php [L] RewriteRule ^/*$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/index.php [L] Options +FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Require all granted # some directories must be protected # images/ still has to be accessible since mw references it directly Options -FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None php_admin_flag engine off I put the app into recovery mode and edited the Apache2 site file and changed the rewrite to the following: RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/rest\.php RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-f RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_URI} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/index.php [L] and started the app with /app/pkg/start.sh and got a working MediaWiki under sub.DOMAIN.tld/Main_Page. To make this usable for you and everyone else, an app update would be needed where users, like you, could also upload a custom Apache2 site setting file that will be included to overwrite the default one. I am converting / hijacking this topic into a feature request.

Help Needed: OpenID "Sign In with" Text

Just to keep things updated here, we will add a per-Cloudron configuration variable in the next Cloudron release to give the OpenID provider a customizable name. Then the apps like Mediawiki which support that kind of customization will pick this up by default.

Help Needed: Installing VisualEditor extension.

@jtippetts I have to check your instance to see why it's not working. Can you write to us at support@cloudron.io ?

How do I install extensions?

nebulon — Tue, 12 Apr 2022 22:32:55 GMT

@SamGreenwood to install on the root domain, you can just leave the subdomain field empty to have it moved there.
