Didn't know this was so unpopular. :-)

Ok, thanks.

What docs says is that recommended URL for index.php should be e.g.
http://yourdomain.com/wiki/index.php, and not
http://yourdomain.com/index.php, and /w for database queries. In my
experience, it doesn't work well if you try to achieve it through
Apache alias only. The documented way is to install sources in a
physical sub-directory and to provide an alias for /wiki. That's why I
asked. What do you recommend how to achieve this if mediawiki index.php
goes to ${LOCALBASE}/www/mediawiki?
