Hi,
- Installing mediawiki/semantic-media-wiki (2.5.3): Loading from cache

It means that you have successful retrieving the files!
require_once "$IP/extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki.php";
enableSemantics('http://localhost'); /** Adjust to yours.*
May I ask if you had the the time to read the installation instruction [0]?
require_once "$IP/extensions/SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki.php";
This line is not required (as noted in [0])!
I note in the extensions directory I now have SemanticMediaWiki in there but
I can't see the Semantic Tables in the database.
You did run `update.php` from the MediaWiki base directory as suggested in [0]?

PS: There is a short video [1, 2] which shows all the required steps
using a Win PC!

Hello Gary: composer require mediawiki/semantic-media-wiki"~2.5" Try
replacing the string above with the string below. That space after the
string 'wiki' is important. composer require mediawiki/semantic-media-wiki

Hi EveryoneI hope everyone is doing great.I am trying to install Semantic
MediaWiki on a Windows 2012 server. The Server that it will be on eventually
is on a private network that is not Internet facing. I have set up a VM on
my Fedora machine which is Internet facing and will transfer over to the
other VM when installed.The issue I am facing is, no matter what I do I just
can't seem to get it installed. I have followed the instructions here.I have
GIT and Composer installed, I don't have the Extension Installer installed,
looking at the MediaWiki page it has been incorporated into the main build.I
have tried to run the commands in both the CMD and GIT Terminal, but I run
the command: composer require mediawiki/semantic-media-wiki"~2.5"But I
get the error detailed below.Reading further on I attempted running: php
SMW_refreshData.php -f -d 50 -vThat seemed to run, but when I go into the
MediaWiki I get an Internal error:[c95d398107fcb1a960a9e229] 2017-07-22
20:18:56: Fatal exception of type "MWException"Any idea what I am doing
wrong? Should I just give up and go with Cargo? My colleagues are extremely
keen on using Semantic MediaWiki hence the reason why I am trying to get
this working, but wondering if I am fighting a losing battle.Any help is
appreciated.GaryError Messages using different commands:Microsoft Windows
