[02:17:00] hi all, I've been trying to install mediawiki in ubuntu using http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Running_MediaWiki_on_Ubuntu#Configure_PHP [02:17:25] I'm getting stuck around 1/2 way round the guide, where it asks for php configuration [02:17:59] If it matters, my server is a shared one, running Apache 2.2.6 and PHP 5.2.4. [02:18:42] esp. the 3rd one , the one called Extensions, there is something called Dynamic extensions but it doesn't have extension=mysql.so & extension=gd.so , instead it has something called extension=msql.so [02:19:00] can I get help with parser functions and magic words? [02:19:02] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:PxMa/test [02:19:04] my pastebin in case if that improves matters http://pastebin.ca/754544 [02:22:48] TimStarling: would you maybe have the time to run the index change for http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11387 ?

[02:36:18] Hello, I got a question [02:36:21] can I insert an external CSS from the wiki as a user? [02:36:24] like tag or @import [02:38:00] no, it's insecure, CSS can contain javascript for IE browsers [02:38:24] well, you can set personal CSS, but you can't set CSS for all users [02:38:46] TimStarling: how can I do this? [02:38:48] JZA: You can use inline styles [02:39:02] set personal CSS? [02:39:11] And for just you, on wikis with it enabled you can edit [[Special:Mypage/monobook.css]] [02:39:19] I go to preferences but I can't load up custom CSS [02:42:29] <[Hyarion]> Has anyone successfully managed to make their wiki available offline? I've stumbled on quite a few different programs but they seem to all be incomplete. [02:43:21] I have a couple of wikipedia excerpts in my bookshelf, so I guess so [02:44:11] although I'd be surprised if any of them were fully automated [02:45:00] <[Hyarion]> A lot of them seem to require the reader to setup their own web server, etc. none of them seem to allow someone to package everything in a nice executable or anything unfortunately [02:46:12] Is it all right to change the $wgSitename? [02:46:24] <[Hyarion]> of course. [02:47:41] [Hyarion]: Although you may be interested in http://static.wikimedia.org/ [02:47:59] Sorry, http://static.wikipedia.org/ [02:50:03] <[Hyarion]> TheFearow, thanks, yea, I think dumping to html files is going to be the way to go, the trick is having features like Search without making the reader install Apache or something. [02:50:37] that doesnt have search, but its still pretty good [02:50:46] it has "go" [02:51:04] <[Hyarion]> yea, at least having Go is pretty good. [02:53:21] I am building a site for Starcraft II, and the majority of the site is simply a wiki. That part's easy. But another part of the site, people can post strategies, which I would like to be user-editable just like any other wiki page. So I thought I'd just have people create a page in the wiki entitled Strategy:bloof. Now, I'd like for people to be able to upload their replays to any strategy page, and others to see those replays in a list and so on. I'm a Ruby o [02:56:13] <[Hyarion]> is the question regarding uploading videos or inserting those videos into the Strategy page dynamically? [02:57:23] <[Hyarion]> TheFearow, any idea what Wikipedia uses to export to html? I see there is a mw2html python script. [02:58:25] [Hyarion]: Tim would probably be able to answer that, I dont know myself. [02:59:12] [Hyarion]: No, but how to add exrta stuff to a page, I guess [03:00:17] http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/tools/dumpHTML/ [03:00:56] which uses maintenance/dumpHTML.php in MediaWiki [03:30:41] <[Hyarion]> TimStarling, awesome, thanks. [04:34:07] How do I add extra stuff to a page when it's presented to the user?

[07:03:21] i'm still a newbie :( [07:03:33] not much of help to anybody [07:03:40] what is the mysql question ? [07:03:51] or problem ? [07:04:04] and i'm using XAMPP package (no need to configure) [07:04:10] so far [07:04:49] fidel, do you know the api? [07:04:50] odb|fidel_: good, the thing is I'm a total noob as far as either mysql is concerned or mediawiki is concerned [07:05:16] I'm at http://192.168.1.2/wiki/config/index.php (mediawiki installed on my desktop/local computer) [07:05:25] odb|fidel_: I'm at http://192.168.1.2/wiki/config/index.php (mediawiki installed on my desktop/local computer) [07:05:48] shirish: and what is the problem ? [07:06:03] odb|fidel_: now I'm supposed to configure mediawiki , and right now at the Mysql thing & dunno what should go in there, [07:06:04] Apollo: i am just a mediawiki user. not a dev :D [07:06:19] dah, ok [07:06:22] :-) [07:06:32] you have to insert your mysql host, a privilged user and define the mysql tables to be used [07:06:36] odb|fidel_: http://pastebin.ca/754781 is the output, the Mysql section please & after it. [07:06:53] shirish: should be written everything in the config dialog itself [07:06:55] odb|fidel_: can you help me with what stuff goes in there, everything is local here [07:06:59] gimme a sec [07:07:41] host: localhost if mysql runs on that box [07:07:48] odb|fidel_: sure, if needed I can go step by step from Site Config section itself, you just check or tell me if anywhere I go wrong [07:08:11] odb|fidel_: right, it shows localhost there [07:08:19] sounds got, next step [07:08:39] database name...: how your mediawiki db should be named [07:08:42] odb|fidel_: database name shows as wikidb, this can be anything or it should be wikidb [07:08:52] can be named like you want [07:09:05] its just the definition onf the DB it creates afaik [07:09:22] so if you plan to run multplie wikis on that server, use a custom name [07:09:38] odb|fidel_: so a database is being created, right , no just a single one, but still would like a custom name [07:09:40] username: is the user mysql user for that table [07:09:54] so use a custom one [07:10:08] odb|fidel_: I'm guessing any name would do [07:10:19] yep [07:10:38] odb|fidel_: did that, now superuser account, what's that ? [07:11:04] should be for the wiki admin [07:11:22] if some lines later is a specific field for the mysql root accoutn definition [07:11:54] odb|fidel_: so this is different than the AdminUsername given above, right? [07:12:57] shirish: i am not 100% sure if mediawiki creates the mysql user itself, last time i installed mediawiki iwas forced to create the db & the db-user for the wiki in commandline / phpmyadmin . and then i started continuing with the configure-section [07:13:07] yeah [07:13:45] odb|fidel_: hmm... in that case how do i create the db & db-user for mysql [07:13:49] usualy: you can define a "admin-user for the wiki itself" and in addition you CAN define the mysql root user account later for the creation inside mysql (afaik) [07:14:03] in cli: connect to y create database WIKIDB_NAME; [07:14:21] grant create, select, insert, update, delete, lock tables on wikidb.* to 'wikiuser'@'localhost' identified by 'password'; [07:14:25] something like that. [07:14:38] odb|fidel_: gently my friend, you're talking to a noob [07:14:52] honestly the installation manual and the doc should answer that all in combination with the form itself [07:15:18] let's start at the very start, how do I connect to mysql ? [07:15:36] in cli: mysql -u root -p [07:15:53] password dialog should come up [07:16:01] and ask for the mysql root pw [07:16:48] did that, now I'm in the mysql prompt mysql > [07:16:56] propmt should change to a mysql prompt [07:17:04] odb|fidel_: it did :) [07:17:08] ok, now you can create a new db with this command [07:17:14] create database WIKIDB_NAME; [07:17:36] where WIKIDB_NANME is the name of the DB you specifiy in the config dialog later [07:17:44] odb|fidel_: the database name should be all caps ? [07:17:49] no [07:18:20] it was just to split basic mysql commands from your input :D [07:18:48] odb|fidel_: oh ok, otherwise anything goes, doesn't matter if its big or small letters, right? [07:19:01] in the next step you need to define a user, which has priv's for that mysql table created in the step before [07:19:11] shirish: shoulnt matter at all [07:19:20] ok back to the user & privs [07:19:21] odb|fidel_: ok did that, now for user [07:19:30] user & privileges [07:19:35] grant create, select, insert, update, delete, lock tables on wikidb.* to 'wikiuser'@'localhost' identified by 'password'; [07:19:49] that is what i have written in my docu those days :D [07:20:20] replace wikiuser by the name the user should be named [07:20:29] localhost is ok ,as the db is on the localhost [07:20:37] repalce password with the user new password [07:20:58] so you should have a user with several rights for the new DB [07:20:58] odb|fidel_: wikidb.* should be replaced also with the wikidb name I gave it? [07:21:23] YOURWIKIDB_NAME_DEFINED_BEFORE.* [07:21:31] afaik [07:21:47] shirish: its really some month ago i did that last time, so i am not 100% with all steps [07:22:01] if that worked [07:22:03] odb|fidel_: lol, good for both of us then [07:22:09] you have to flush mysql privs [07:22:21] via that command: flush privileges; [07:22:30] enter: exit [07:22:54] odb|fidel_: one sec, with password, do the 'password' the '' are needed or not ? [07:22:54] pre-mysql-part should be done and you shoulds be able to follow the instructions in the config dialog of your wiki [07:22:57] anyone here with any api experience yet? [07:23:07] i think so [07:23:15] shirish: [07:23:26] needed [07:24:16] now, check if you enter the same values in your browser - mediawiki-config [07:24:28] and continue [07:24:30] did that , flushed the privileges, ok going back to the browser [07:24:44] good luck now :D [07:25:08] odb|fidel_: sec. just a sec. [07:25:49] odb|fidel_: has anything to be done in MySQL options or nothing there? [07:26:40] define mysql options ? [07:27:00] you have to enter the username, password , host in the configure dialog now [07:27:32] Db prefix is optional [07:28:08] rest should be self-explaninig now in the form [07:28:19] oh ok, so didn't do anything there, I'm now getting errors when installing mediawiki [07:28:32] Warning: xcache_get() [function.xcache-get]: xcache.var_size is either 0 or too small to enable var data caching in /var/www/wiki/includes/BagOStuff.php on line 580 [07:29:01] odb|fidel_: I installed/used php5-xcache , do just know it has something to do with caching. [07:29:24] i dont use caching [07:29:37] so no experience with that [07:29:52] google for the error message [07:29:57] odb|fidel_: why is caching used ? Any benefits [07:30:43] An object caching system such as memcached will provide a significant performance boost, but needs to be installed. [07:30:46] Provide the server addresses and ports in a comma-separated list. [07:30:52] how about reeading the informatiomn you post ? [07:30:58] its written there :D [07:32:50] my wikis are very small, about 5-10 users for each wiki. so i really dont care about a performance boost in this special case [07:33:24] odb|fidel_: I had no idea what its used for, but seemed important enough hence installed xcache [07:43:33] ugh... everything's registered. [07:43:55] i was wondering if someone could answer a quick question. [07:45:43] unfortunately, i'm a bit new to wiki editing and i read in the manual on wikipedia that [[November 1]], [[2007]] for example, would be converted to the user's prefered date style. is it possible to create a custom calendar and have it work the same way?

[11:20:43] hi phil, could you help a newbie with a wikitext fromating question? [11:26:46] another_guest_ni, then it's probably not what you need [11:28:30] i did hope it can be used to place more then one line of text inside a box, because it's easy to type... i could use a table, but the wikitext table formating is driving me insane [11:30:20] i need a captation line outside the box and text inside the box. just trying to align the captation left and the content of the box (in the next line) centered is driving me insane already... align=left for the table does cause the table to be aligned left, text floating atound it. align=left in the captation row does align it left, but destroys the captation, placing it inside a box. align=top-left does c [11:33:24] you might be better served in a html channel [11:34:33] oh, i can produce this table in html.... but having installed a wiki now, i am trying to do it in wikitext... that's one of the reasons i installed it for [11:35:36] Hi... Is it possible to add video content to mediawiki's articles? I want to upload the videos to the same server... [11:36:23] ok another_guest_ni now i understand. sorry i don't have an answer for you [11:37:18] JoKo: i guess the upload itself shoulndt be any problem. just define upload and file formats. in worst case skip the mime check. but i dont know how you can use them inside your wiki then [11:38:06] odb|fidel_, I was thinking to convert them to flash, but I have to find a way, I guess... [11:38:53] well, guess i will just use the good old table-tags... and wait until wikitext has something my confused brain might understand... this system of pipes sounds nice, but i am trying for half an hour now and it does not produce anything near what i want [11:40:09] JoKo> there can be media links, and you can use html to embed it, but something like "upload, convert to flash, show on page in a player" like youtube & co... should be a plugin / extension maybe, but not a standard feauture i came across... and i did read the manual yesterday [11:45:12] is there no quick and clean way to hide the toolbox menu?
