Configuration Checker

Summary

The configuration checker is a script that is designed to validate that your server is configured correctly.

It checks (for example):

You have a valid FederationConfigurationFile
All of your WikiBases are where you say they are and have reasonable configuration information
Your WikiBases are set up so that the file system permissions are correct
Your newsletter SMTP delivery server is configured
etc.

To access the script, you run the file config.aspx on your server. This is accessible either by going to the administration home (http://yourserver/admin/default.aspx) and following the link to the Configuration Checker OR by going directly to it at http://yourserver/admin/config.aspx.

It would be cool if there was some advice here what to do if the configuration checker doesn't work, either. I, for example, get an HTTP 500.

Error500

I also got errors trying to use the Config.aspx (note, I'm working on a Linux server, and thus "config.aspx" doesn't work... I must use Config.aspx), and found I got a error 500 message:

        System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path
        "/var/www/localhost/htdocs/admin/WikiBases".

Symlinking WikiBases into the admin directory (cd to admin/ directory and exec ln --symlink ../WikiBases .), kludges around the issue, and get things working fine on Linux. I have no idea how to fix it on Windows though (an OS that does not have the luxury of symbolic links). -- Stuart Longland
