Stepping through the installer, using Oracle, always returns the error 'config-invalid-db-server-oracle', which is Invalid database TNS "$1". Use either "TNS Name" or an "Easy Connect" string ([http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/network.112/e10836/naming.htm Oracle Naming Methods]) OracleInstaller::submitConnectForm calls WebInstaller::setVarsFromRequest with each desired form field name as a separate parameter instead of an array in the first parameter as specified in the API documentation. The bug was introduced in this patch, late in October 2013 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/88466/ - $newValues = $this->setVarsFromRequest( array( 'wgDBserver', 'wgDBprefix', 'wgDBuser', 'wgDBpassword' ) ); + $newValues = $this->setVarsFromRequest( + 'wgDBserver', + 'wgDBprefix', + 'wgDBuser', + 'wgDBpassword' + );
Update per https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki_1.22/Known_issues&oldid=847749 which seems to be the master list.
