The Scribunto (Latin: "they shall write/let them write (in the future)") extension allows for embedding scripting languages in MediaWiki. Currently the only supported scripting language is Lua.
PCRE version compatibility[<a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension:Scribunto&action=edit§ion=3" title="Edit section: PCRE version compatibility">edit]
PCRE 8.33 or later is recommended. You can see the version of PCRE used by PHP by viewing a phpinfo() web page, or from the command line with the command php -i | grep 'PCRE'.
- Scribunto will not work with versions of PCRE lower than 8.10.
- PCRE 8.31 has bugs with JIT pattern studying that breaks various patterns when used with HHVM.
- PCRE 8.32 has a bug that will cause it to reject certain non-character codepoints, which will cause errors in the mw.html module.
CentOS 6 and RHEL 6 are stuck on PCRE 7 and need to be upgraded.
Updating to 8.33 on a server with an older version may be relatively complicated. See Updating to PCRE 8.33 or Higher for details.

Make sure your extension version is applicable to your MediaWiki version.
