Since it mentions "Permission denied" my first thought is that maybe your server doesn't have permission to read the LocalSettings.php file? -Original Message- From: mediawiki-l-boun...@lists.wikimedia.org [mailto:mediawiki-l-boun...@lists.wikimedia.org] On Behalf Of Ekompute .info Sen

Hi Davis, Domas and P.Mazart! Thanks for your support. Answers cleared that wiki is good enough as knowledge storage but not as ticketing system. And of course wikitags aren't easy for helpdesks stuff - I suppose that they will not want to learn the tags :-)) Cheers, Janusz "Ency" Dorożtński
