Progressed but first issue still not solved. Seems it’s while loading StartProfiler.php that there’s something wrong. Never returns from the require call in WebStart.php.

require_once( “$IP/StartProfiler.php” );

When I include echoe() in a test version of StartProfiler.php, nothing happens, even if the echo() are just first line… Don’t understand…

Two question on your code. The first is, I just can’t get past the following line :

   require ($mediawiki_root . '/includes/WebStart.php');

I made sure the file is OK by displaying it, there’s no error or warning message however, so I just have no clue at all to search on…

The second question, once I’ll have solved the first, is why did you create a class instead of simply executing the code ? I think it has something to do with the script belonging to an extension. I think I’ll not use a class because I simply wanr to include this into a simple script to display some query results.

Thanks again for the code !

I’m making a portal page that aggregates recent changes from a phpBB, a WordPress and a MediaWiki and so this page is very useful for me. As of now, I didn’t have any clue for getting the data from the MW. Some kind folk at MW Users forum directed me to the API and I found this page…

So I’ll let you know if I get to something working !

Here it is:

$mediawiki_root = ‘/Users/eyeRmonkey/www/mediawiki-test’;
putenv(“MW_INSTALL_PATH=$mediawiki_root”);
$wgCommandLineMode = true;
// Initialise common code
require ($mediawiki_root . ‘/includes/WebStart.php’);

output this (together with some html tags) after the user presses login. works perfectly for me

PHP Notice: in file /home/aton/public_html/wiki/includes/WebStart.php on line 69: require_once(./StartProfiler.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory

WebStart.php calls StartProfiler.php using a relative path without a path variable :/
that pretty much makes it impossible to include the file from outside, doesnt it?
