Bug Description

I just installed the MediaWki appliance. It seems to be running fine, but when I go to phpMyAdmin and login, I get an error message in a yellow box that says "Cannont load mycrypt extension. Please check your php confitguration." Is this normal? I didn't see anything about it looking around the documentation, but maybe I was going too fast...

Thanks--

Al

Thanks for reporting this, it seems to be a bug in the mediawiki 2009.02 release.
I'll look into what caused it, but in the meantime here is a simple fix:

echo "extension=mcrypt.so" >> /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
