hi,<br><br>If there is anyone here who is experienced with mediawiki, the software that runs Wikipedia, I would be very grateful for some tips as to this problem. Essentially, mediawiki is not letting us edit newly-created pages. We get the error message given below when we try to do so. One of our community members installed a new version of Mediwiki, the most current version,
<span id="st" name="st" class="st">version</span> 1.11.0, and most of the functionality is there and working fine. <br><br>I have tried to start a new page called "test page" here<br><br><a href="http://digitaltippingpoint.com/wiki/index.php?title=Wiki_Coffee_House">
http://digitaltippingpoint.com/wiki/index.php?title=Wiki_Coffee_House</a><br><br>If you click on the familiar pale red page name, normally mediawiki would take you to the page, and allow you to start editing. In this case, though, clicking on the the pale red word, "test page" on the link above produces the error message given below. We have not found a whole lot of helpful stuff from googling.
<br><br>Thanks either way for considering my request! <br><br>************<br><h1>Database <span id="st" name="st" class="st">error</span></h1>
A database query syntax <span id="st" name="st" class="st">error</span> has occurred.
This may indicate a bug in the software.
The last attempted database query was:
<blockquote><tt>(SQL query hidden)</tt></blockquote>
from within function "".
MySQL returned <span id="st" name="st" class="st">error</span> "<tt>1267: Illegal mix of collations (latin1_bin,IMPLICIT) and (latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) for operation '=' (localhost)</tt>".<br><br>
