Setting up inkscape (or svg rendering, for that matter) on a win32 installation of mediawiki may prove tricky. I have found that the following works (mediawiki 1.7.1, inkscape 0.44, assuming that inkscape is installed in the default location)
LocalSettings.php:
$wgSVGConverters['inkscapeshell'] = \ 'C:\bin\svgtopng.bat $input $output $width'; $wgSVGConverter = 'inkscapeshell';
C:\bin\svgtopng.bat
@echo off set APP=C:\Program Files\Inkscape\inkscape.exe set FROM=%1 set TO=%2 set WIDTH=%3 copy %FROM% C:\input.svg "%APP%" -w %WIDTH% --export-png C:\output.png C:\input.svg copy C:\output.png %TO%
MediaWiki 1.15.0
editI got this working in Windows XP on MediaWiki 1.15.0 by simply adding inkscape's install folder to the PATH and restarting the machine, then setting $wgSVGConverter = 'inkscape';.
Setting $wgSVGConverterPath did not work at all in Windows XP and seemed to make the entire wiki hang.
