Okay, I keep getting 500 errors every time I attempt to install it. I will ask the creator for advice, can someone else pull another idea out of their magic hat?

I'm trying to install a system where users go a project, comment a code, then they can request an account for it to be approved or reject.

But I didn't make it myself, someone else did, and I'm having a hard time installing it.

Are you sure you're following all of the instructions? You need to follow the instructions at but use the code I have on GitHub instead of the code provided on that page.

Most simply, what you need to do is upload the folder called “ConfirmAccount” from the GitHub link above to the “extensions” folder in your MediaWiki installation, and then add the following to the bottom of LocalSettings.php:
require_once "$IP/extensions/ConfirmAccount/ConfirmAccount.php";

Once you do that, you need to run the configuration script. The easiest way to do that is to go to http://yoursite.com/path/mw-config/ (replace http://yoursite.com/path/ with the directory in which you installed MediaWiki) and then go through the instructions on the screen. You can get the upgrade key from your LocalSettings.php file.

@TeeMee123 the person who posted is the person who designed what I am trying to use


@jvvg Yeah, I was doing that. But as soon as I get to “Existing wiki” I get 500 errors, and it turned out to be because there was no extension.json file. So I created one, and that got me 2 screens furthur on the mw-config page. But then, it complained it was invalid. I also get 500 errors when I go to the wiki, but it's back to normal when I comment out the wfLoadExtension (or whatever it is). I am using mediawiki 1.26.2

Hmm, the main wiki appears to run 1.22.7 should I switch to that? I also will try your version on github (I was using the LLK copy)

It looks to me like the problem is that the extension isn't installing due to MediaWiki triggering errors.

I haven't tested it on new versions of MediaWiki (the latest I've seen it on is 1.25.3), so I don't know how the extension standards have evolved. Also, have you tried installing any other extensions in the time being? Those may also be contributing to the problem.

Sorry I wasnt really talking about the technicalities of whatever it is you are doing, i was more asking what it does and what relevence it has with a shared password system (users each have an account to log in to, and an account paeg which shows the shared password if they are allowed it)…

I will try 1.22.7 next. TeeMee, I was planning to make it so that anyone with an account could see the password. If you want only highly privileged users to be able to I can do that.


Back to jvvg, your extensio n is ghe only one so far

so what could a scratch modification have anything to do with it if it all happens on the external website?
