This should now be fixed, sorry for the inconvenience!

It looks like your .htaccess RewriteRule is what is blocking it. I highly recommend disabling or revisiting that rule as it will cause issues with the wiki itself as well -- you will be unable to view or edit any page with a . in it followed by letters. What is that rule supposed to be protecting against? To be clear: it isn't failing to find the files. You are getting 403 Forbidden back. Your RewriteCond is checking for a query string containing a period followed by anything EXCEPT a bunch of special characters. So having something like ".styles" or ".css" in the query string will trip it. You can verify this yourself by attempting to view the page http://wiki.tri-sen.local/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css -- your browser will display a 403 Forbidden page there as well.

Can you please let us know the value of every setting in LocalSettings.php that has the word 'Path' or 'Directory' in it? For example: $wgScriptPath, $wgStylePath, $wgArticlePath, etc. Are you using pretty URLs/short URLs in your wiki? If so, can you please post the URL rewrite-related contents of your .htaccess file (assuming apache)? In your browser, open up the dev tools (usually by pressing F12). Go to the network tab and then refresh the site with ?debug=1 added to the end of the URL (or &debug=1 if the URL already has a '?' in it). For example: http://example.com/wiki/Pagename?debug=1 or http://example.com/w/index.php?title=Pagename&debug=1. Look for errors with load.php, and let us know what type of error you are seeing (403, 404, 500, etc.).

Is your wiki public? If so, can you please link to it?

I've added a new Manuals section to the website (check the Browse tab to find it). I plan on putting up useful walkthroughs and interactive applications to make administering MediaWiki easier. Right now, I've added an app to generate configs to make "Pretty URLs". I'm looking for feedback on what you all would like to see next, is there anything in particular you feel is missing from the MediaWiki.org docs or is there some painful process that you wish had a wizard? Let me know!

Looks like your email was already marked as confirmed, so all is well

By default, nobody has permissions to do anything when Extension:OAuth is installed. You can adjust this by setting $wgGroupPermissions at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php. Here is a sample configuration: $wgGroupPermissions['user']['mwoauthmanagemygrants'] = true; // All logged-in users can manage what access consumers tied to their accounts have. Do NOT change this line to a different group. $wgGroupPermissions['user']['mwoauthproposeconsumer'] = true; // All logged-in users can propose new consumers $wgGroupPermissions['user']['mwoauthupdateownconsumer'] = true; // All logged-in users can update details of their own consumers. $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['mwoauthmanageconsumer'] = true; // Administrators can manage consumers (approve requests, deactivate consumers, etc.) // Optional permissions. Uncomment (remove the leading #) to enable. #$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['mwoauthsuppress'] = true; // Administrators can hide details about a consumer #$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['mwoauthviewsuppressed'] = true; // Administrators can view details about a consumer that were hidden #$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['mwoauthviewprivate'] = true; // Administrators can view private details about a consumer, such as the Secret Token. It is recommended that you do NOT enable this. // If your wiki is not using SSL (HTTPS), do not include this line. If your wiki is using SSL (HTTPS), ensure this line is present. $wgMWOAuthSecureTokenTransfer = true;

Extension:OAuth sets up the OAuth server. In other words, it lets other applications connect to you. Depending on what you want for your OAuth deployment, you'll want one of two things: If you want your wiki to be the canonical source of users, install Extension:OAuth. From there, you can register consumer applications on your wiki to obtain consumer keys and secret keys for use elsewhere to connect to your wiki. (More on this process further below) If you want your wiki to connect to some other wiki or OAuth source, install Extension:OAuthAuthentication. I'm not sure if this extension has been updated yet to work well with most recent versions of MediaWiki, so you may experience some issues when using it. Please note that the OAuthAuthentication extension is written to support logging in via other wikis running Extension:OAuth. I do not believe it supports being a generic OAuth client (for example, to auth against Google or GitHub), but I could be wrong as I've never personally tried it. To locate your consumer key and secret key, go to the wiki with Extension:OAuth installed (this will be your wiki in case 1, or the other wiki in case 2), and browse to the page [[Special:OAuthConsumerRegistration]]. It will be listed as "OAuth Consumer Registration" under the "Users and Rights" heading in the special pages list. From there, follow these steps: Click "Request a token for a new consumer" Fill out the request form as per this image: Click "Propose consumer." You will be given your Consumer Token and Secret Token. Write down your Secret Token now, you will not be able to view it after leaving this page. Before the consumer can be used, it must be approved. If you are authenticating against a wiki you do not control, follow the approval process there. If you do control the wiki with Extension:OAuth installed, browse to [[Special:OAuthManageConsumers/proposed]]. If you get a permission denied error, ensure that you have given yourself the mwoauthmanageconsumer permission via $wgGroupPermissions in LocalSettings.php: $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['mwoauthmanageconsumer'] = true; Once approved, you need to add some configuration in LocalSettings.php to the wiki with Extension:OAuthAuthentication installed: $wgOAuthAuthenticationUrl = 'https://otherwiki.com/w/index.php?title=Special:OAuth'; // This assumes that otherwiki.com is where Extension:OAuth is installed. Change as necessary $wgOAuthAuthenticationConsumerKey = 'bf0252aa9e521f1463a0ba171ba20367'; // Consumer Token $wgOAuthAuthenticationConsumerSecret = '248f75d271d9fa34ea7d9da2264c0cb1400a54e5'; // Secret Token // Insert other configuration defined by Extension:OAuthAuthentication if needed. Check its extension page on mediawiki.org for more details. If you are not using Extension:OAuthAuthentication (in other words, you're setting up an OAuth server so that non-MediaWiki clients can log in using wiki credentials), then you will need to configure those clients as step 5 instead of adding things to LocalSettings.php. The Callback URL in your registration in step 2 should also be modified to be appropriate for that external client.
