After installing Debian 9 after a hard-drive died I'm now having problems getting my local installation of mediawiki up and running. I'm using this page as my guide [1] and copied and pasted the stanza "sudo apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php php-mysql libapache2-mod-php php-xml php-mbstring" and installed everything for a 'stretch' installation.
This was not an upgrade of my OS but a straight install using the 'stretch' net-install.iso. I have installed 'php-xml:all 1:7.0+49' and 'php7.0-mbstring:amd64 7.0.19-1' but the "http://localhost/mediawiki/"; is saying - --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- MediaWiki 1.28 internal error Installing some PHP extensions is required. Required components You are missing a required extension to PHP that MediaWiki requires to run. Please install: mbstring (more information) xml (more information) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- So what versions are required then please for a successful mediawiki local installation please? Thanks Sharon.
