==Failure to initialise on MediaWiki 1.16.0==

===Environment===
*MediaWiki 1.16.0
*PHP 5.2.9-1 (apache2handler)
*MySQL 5.1.32-community

===Description===
After upgrading from MediaWiki 1.15.4 to 1.16.0 the following error is received on all pages:

 Fatal error: Call to a member function getDBKey() on a non-object in 
 C:\WebSite\htdocs\Wiki\extensions\Woogle\includes\WoogleHooks.php on line 278

Failed with Woogle 1.0.0-RC2, updated from SVN to 3988 but still got the same issue.

:I have found the problem.  My Wiki had $wgLanguageCode = "en-gb"; in its LocalSettings.php.  Changing this to "en" fixed the problem.

:: Thanks for pointing that out. The problem seems to occur for all languages which are not shipped yet with Woogle. The bug is now filed under http://octopus13.fzi.de:8080/browse/WOO-454

:::Changing line 28 in a language-file in extensions/woogle/languages/ to the actually used language-code resolves this issue. For example, in my case, my Wiki uses language "de-formal" (configured in LocalSettings.php), so I changed line 28 in the german woogle-language-pack from
 return 'de';
:::to
 return 'de-formal';
:::Maybe it would help to define a default (fallback) language to load, when the appropriate language-file is not found.
