Uniform Server is inherently portable copy the above to a USB memory stick and run on another PC. If a host PC is currently running another server it will prevent UniServer from running. To resolve this situation either stop, the host servers or preferably install your UniServer on different ports by moving the server. Before installing MediaWiki its worth reading how to [[#Move Servers |'''move servers''']]. | Uniform Server is inherently portable copy the above to a USB memory stick and run on another PC.

If you install MediaWiki using the plugin V55_MediaWiki_1_15_1a.exe there is no need to change line $wgDBserver = "localhost"; | |||
A MySQL port change is automatically tracked using the following code: | |||
{| | |||
|- | |||
| | |||
<pre> | |||
// === Get MYSQL port number ================================================= | |||
// Use port from configuration file - because user can change this file | |||
$path_array = explode("www", dirname( __FILE__ )); // Folder UniServr path | |||
$file_conf = $path_array[0].'usr\\local\\mysql\\my.ini'; // Config file | |||
if ($filearray=file($file_conf)) { // read file into array | |||
foreach ($filearray as $txt) { // scan array for port | |||
if(preg_match("/^\s*port\s*=\s*(\d+)/", $txt,$match)){ // check save matches | |||
$mysql_port = $match[1]; // match found save port number | |||
break; // give up nothing else to do | |||
} | |||
} | |||
} | |||
else { // failed to read file | |||
echo "Cannot read the file"; | |||
} | |||
// ===================================================== END Get MySQL Port === | |||
## Database settings | |||
$wgDBtype = "mysql"; | |||
$wgDBserver = "localhost:$mysql_port"; | |||
$wgDBname = "wikidb"; | |||
$wgDBuser = "root"; | |||
$wgDBpassword = "root"; | |||
</pre> | |||
