Up The Crick without a paddle
20 February 2008 Jeff Gill
Some of you know that I have a website called The Crick. It is a wiki that is available for anyone to add ministry stuff to: sermon notes, lessons, sketches, bible studies, whatever. In practice it is just my stuff. Or, it was. A couple weeks ago it disappeared. Now it is just a blank page.
The site runs on MediaWiki, the software behind Wikipedia. My very helpful webhosts have informed me the reasons it is not working are:
- a parse error
- a syntax error
- an unexpected T_STRING
and worst of all
- a fatal error!
You may be interested to know that these errors happen on the lines numbered 160 and 32.
I’m beginning to think that my biggest error was choosing such heavyweight wiki software for my little project. I’m thinking of switching to DokuWiki, and I would appreciate some advice, especially from people who know about wikis, PHPs and MySQLs (or perhaps TheirSQLs). Is anyone like that out there?

According to Wikipedia PHP is a recursive acronym and using it can involve ncurses. Is all this cursing part of the problem?
