I found out that mediawiki tar ball from sf.net contains serialized folder while package provided with Red Had doesn't. Hope it will help. Regards Vitaliy S
I found the way to fix the problem manually I copied serialized folder from sf.net mediawiki 1.8.2 tar ball to /var/www/mediawiki #cd /var/www/mediawiki #make after that I copied AdminSettings.php from same tar ball to /var/www/mediawiki #cd /var/www/mediawiki/maintenance #php update.php and after that mediawiki start working.

Created attachment 141997 [details] Patch to fix spec file.
I've ever so slightly edited the spec file provided with the mediawiki 1.8.2-5 SRPM from Fedora Extras. This fixes the issues described by bug 215968 (this bug) and 214758 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=214758). I've tested it here, and it works completely, as expected. Bug 213997 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=213997), being a duplicate of this one, would also be closed by this fix. I don't know how to mark it as such a duplicate. Attached a patch for the spec file (I'm not good at diff, so I'm not sure if it's backwards or not).
