Enabling this extension in initial MediaWiki setup (1.22.0 on Windows)

I assume you also use the REL1_22 branch of the extension? Or git master?

Setting $wgCacheDirectory manually resolves the situation.

Does that mean that $wgCacheDirectory was not set (empty) before?

I used extension version bundled with MediaWiki 1.22.0 public download package.

$wgCacheDirectory was empty. There was no messages about undefined variables, so it was defined, but empty. As you can see, this exception is thrown when both $wgLocalisationUpdateDirectory and $wgCacheDirectory are empty.

line 549 of LocalisationUpdate.class.php:

$dir = $wgLocalisationUpdateDirectory ?

$wgLocalisationUpdateDirectory :
$wgCacheDirectory;

if ( !$dir ) {

throw new MWException( 'No cache directory configured' );

I had this error to and I found the solution:

I'm using MW 1.22.1 that I downloaded today, and got the same error.

According to it's extension page ([[mediawiki:Extension:LocalisationUpdate]]), you only need to add the following code in the LocalSettings.php

$wgLocalisationUpdateDirectory = "$IP/cache";

Second try: [[mw:Extension:LocalisationUpdate]]
