Each time I upgrade, I unzip the archive to a new directory and copy over
the images and extensions. So I've been using the "core" version of Vector
for a while. That said, commenting out the line with wfLoadSkin('Vector')
still generates the following error:
================
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught FatalError: $wgBaseDirectory must not be
modified in settings files! Use the MW_INSTALL_PATH environment variable to
override the installation root directory. in
/var/www/gpf/mediawiki-1.38.2/includes/Setup.php:237
Stack trace:
#0 /var/www/gpf/mediawiki-1.38.2/maintenance/doMaintenance.php(96):
require_once()
#1 /var/www/gpf/mediawiki-1.38.2/maintenance/update.php(264):
require_once('/var/www/gpf/me...')
#2 {main}
thrown in /var/www/gpf/mediawiki-1.38.2/includes/Setup.php on line 237
================
I'm not modifying $wgBaseDirectory anywhere in my LocalSettings.php, so I
don't see why it would be generating this error. (Note that all of the
files in the stack trace are MediaWiki internal files.)
